BEST WESTERN Hotel Savonia

Very nice. Simple but clean and nice staff. Breakfast is absolutely ok. Rooms are spacious. Bathroom bitl got old but it's clean. Rooms are quiet. Opposite are shopping facilities.

Located at Puijonlaakso, a few kilometers from city center, bus stop is front of the hotel. Free parking and wifi. We stayed at economy room, own bathroom, no aircon or fridge. The room might be quite hot at summer. The reception is at third floor, the hotel is now days little bit rambling. Buffet style breakfast was served at the basement.

All the major hotels in Kuopio were fully booked and had to take a room away from the city centre. The best part of the experience was definitely the helpful and kind service personnel in the reception. This evening it was staffed by a local student and he’ll go far with that attitude. The hotel is situated about 10 min from the railway station, and the entrance can be a little tricky if you don’t follow the signs. It’s a bit old and maybe worn out, but the room itself was spotless with crisp clean linen. All the basic necessities were in the room. On the negative we can find the lack of a restaurant for the evening, but the nearby shopping centre provides for this loss. The breakfast room was quaint and very well stocked with fresh ingredients. All in all I had a pleasant stay. Value for money which is why I rate this as 4/5
