Nice and cozy spa hotel with excellent staff

This is a nice and cozy hotel by the lake in beautiful surroundings. The staff was excellent and very helpful in getting the best possible experience in Kuhmo and the area around it. Breakfast was good with home-baked bread. The hotel has a nice spa and sauna area, with an outdoor jacuzzi by the lake. It is very good value for the money.

Erityisen hyvÀÀ oli todella kattava, maukas ja hyvin monipuolinen aamiainen, huolimatta erittÀin hiljaisesta ajankohdasta ja vaikka vain muutamassa huoneessa taisi tÀnÀ yönöÀ olla asiakas.

Hotelli itsessÀÀn oli viihtyisÀ. YöllÀ huoneessa oli kuitenkin aivan ÀlyttömÀn kuuma (huoneessa olevan mittarin mukaan 26 astetta), vaikka ulkona oli viileÀÀ. Ilmanvaihto vaikutti olevan pois pÀÀltÀ (ei kuulunut huminaa venttiileistÀ ennen kuin vasta seuraavana aamuna), ja paikalla ei ollut henkilökuntaa, jolle ilmoittaa asiasta. Hieman helpotti, kun irrotti tuuletusikkunasta hyttysverkon, jotta ilma pÀÀsi vaihtumaan. Aamiainen oli laadukas. HÀiritsi, ettÀ henkilökunnalla tuntui olevan jotakin krÀnÀÀ ja jotkut istuivat yksinÀÀn omissa pöydissÀÀn salin toisella puolella.

Kalevala-hotelli on helmi Suomen hotellien joukoss

Patjat alkoivat olla loppuun nukuttuja, varsinkin toinen sÀnky oli istuttu reunaltaan niin luiskaksi, ettÀ patja pyrki valumaan pois sÀngystÀ. Wi-Fi toimi hyvin huonosti. Suhtautuminen koiraan oli kiitettÀvÀÀ. Se, ettÀ huoneesta oli pelkkÀ ovi naapurihuoneeseen, orjuutti koiranomistaajaa: hÀiritseekö koiran haukkuminen naapurihuoneen asukasta. Aamiainen oli hyvÀ, samoin ala carte-annokset, jotka söimme. Sauna oli hyvÀ. YmpÀristö oli kuin suoraan satukirjasta.

Luontoa ja rauhaa

Vietimme kaksi yötÀ hotellissa, viihdyimme oikein hyvin ja paikassa oli tÀllÀ kertaa rauhallista. Saunassa ja ulkoporeammeessa tuli kÀytyÀ molempina iltoina ja Talvisotamuseo joka sijaitsee aivan naapurissa on suosituksen arvoinen. Hotellilla on oma ranta josta pÀÀsee hyvin uimaan, ranta on loivahko ja rappuset takaisin saunalle/altaille. Aamiaisvalikoima ei ollut valtava mutta tÀysin riittÀvÀ ja laadukas, vÀhemmÀn on joskus enemmÀn. Emme itse nyt kÀyttÀneet mutta kuulimme muilta vierailta ettÀ hotellin kautta voi varata aktiviteetteja mm. karhujen spottausta jne.

Hotelli on komealla paikalla. Hieman jo kulahtuneisuutta. NÀillÀ helteillÀ, ja muulloinkin, pieni jÀÀkaappi huoneessa olisi paikallaan. Saunan aukiolo hieman kiusallinen, auki klo 18-20. Kuitenkin kun tulimme kierrokselta klo 21 maissa, joku pariskunta tuli ehkÀ saunasta, ainakin heillÀ oli kylpytakit yllÀÀn. Mutta oli hyvÀ herÀtÀ jÀrveÀ ihaillen.

Worst experience ever

Though the hotel clerk was nice (they close 23 but let us in 23:15) this hotel must be the worst ever by Nordic standards. Its like a time travel to the early 90s. You can hear the neighbour breathe - thats how poorly isolated it is. But thats not the contributing factor to my 1 star. The reason is that it was a party in the neighbour room. The clerk asked them to be quiet and left - then after 30 minutes the party started again full blown. Drunk people in the hallway screaming, swearing and banging on the walls. And NO SECURITY. We could have been murdered in that hallway and noone would notice as it is not any security cameras. I travelled there with my 10 year old son and we could not sleep before 03-04 in the night. My son was of course uneasy because of this aggressive screaming in the hallway. We also of course missed breakfast because of that and slept till 11 even more tired than before we arrived. Totally overpriced hotel that should get competition from some cheap modern hotels. Its not that: I would gladly pay 200EUR for a Nordic Choice room and I expected this standard when I ordered the room. Will recommend everyone to choose another alternative - even camping - even sleeping in your car. The interior of the room and hotel is at best 2 star quality. And to end this disaster review - why the hell did the clerk give us a room right beside a party when he could see I have a 10 year old child with me??? Sick.

Mukava hiljainen paikka. Palvelutaso on hieman kapeampi kuin suurkaupunkien hotelleissa, mutta vastapainona on luonnon lÀheisyys joka on huikea! Hotelli itsessÀÀn perustasoa, mutta on persoonallinen positiivisessa mielessÀ. Jos olet pohjoiseen menossa, niin Kuhmo ja sen luonto kannattaa kokea matkalla!
