We arrived 1,5 hours before check-in time and already the parking was full. We found a parking space nearby in an old and very cramped parking hall. If you arrive by train, the hotel is just beside the train station. Also very close to Nokia Arena. There were long lines and quite a wait at check-in. We were not instructed about the breakfast or anything other really. The family room was very basic and a bit dated. The room was clean and had a minibar, ironing board and hairdryer. The breakfast room was quite small for the size of the hotel and many items had finished. The kitchen was obviously struggling to keep up with the demand. We left the hotel a bit disappointed. Would probably not choose this hotel again since there are better and cheaper hotels in Tampere.

繁華街に歩いて行けて、VRの駅の真向かいで、チェックアウト後他の都市に移動するのに便が良かった。ロウリュができる男女別のサウナでは地元の方と交流することもできて楽しい時間だった。館内の設備は、清潔で、部屋も広く落ち着いた雰囲気だった。バゲッジルームがあり、スーツケースを預けることができるが、番号札があるわけでなく、フロントスタッフが自動ドアを開けて自分で入れるタイプ。お部屋に電気ポットはなく、冷蔵庫はあった。タンペレに来たらまた利用したいし、他都市に行く機会があれば、スカンディックグループのホテルに泊まりたいと思った。

Väldigt fräscht och fint. Superbra frukost med allt möjligt och lite till, även iskaffe! Extra pluspoäng för gratis lånecyklar (mycket bra cykelvägar även i centrala Tammerfors) och en mikrovågsugn i hotellobbyn för att kunna värma upp lite kvällsmat. Med cykel hinner man göra många sevärdheter på en dag. Trotts närheten till järnvägen var det knäpptyst på rummet - hade fönster mot innergården/restaurangen.

Great location across the train station and about 20min walk from the central Buss station. Comfortable if a bit dated room and bathroom with no view. Quiet room, comfortable bed. Aircon did not work very well (temp could not be lowered) and windows did not open (safety measure) so it would have been hot if the weather was hotter. Breakfast was good. We could leave luggage in the locked storage room before the 4pm check in and again the next day after checking out.
