Top Central Karelia Hotel Reviews

Original Sokos Hotel Kimmel

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel very friendly. Nice restaurant on site. Rooms clean"

GreenStar Hotel Joensuu

8/10 Good

"The hotel itself was quite clean. The only thing i would say about our room is the drain in the shower had a bit of a sewer smell when we showered. The amenities were also lacking some... The soap in the shower was for body and hair which if you're desperate enough is okay. Luckily we brought our own soap. No fridge or tea in the room but they had a kettle and tea downstairs which we grabbed to bring up. Breakfast our first day was a bit sad.. some old watermelon and the hot food was almost empty. But our next day was good so i'm wondering if it had something to do with who ran it? Overall we would go back for the price it was quiet okay :)"

Omena Hotel Joensuu

8/10 Good

"clean, small and simple. it was quite small but we only needed a room to shower and sleep so it worked out just fine. Only reason I gave it 4/5 is because it was quite cold in the room with no way to adjust the temperature. Also make sure to pack what you need as well they had one thing of soap for your entire body and that was all. "

Lietsu Boutique Aparthotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, quiet, well equipped kitchen, washer in the room I selected. Attentive staff, great breakfast, they even made me breakfast the night before an early departure. Walkable from train station, downtown location for shopping and dining. Along river for walks and or cycling excursions. Highly recommended. "

Punkaharju Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful camping. Camping itself is quite big. You can choose to live in apartment, villa, small og big cabin, tent or park a camper. Shared kitchen and wc/douche are clean and big enough. Camping offers free sauna every morning which we enjoued much. You cal also find a private beach and orhet places where you can swim in the lake. Mojority of cabins have a lave wiev. You cal also find a good restorant in campings area and mini waterpark which is popular among kids. Lady in reception is very polite and explains everything we were intrested in."

Karjalan Helmi

10/10 Excellent

"I was met by the owner Passi who was waiting for me. I had booked into one of the apartments but wes told that I was staying in one of the cottages by the lake. Passi took me to the cottage which has its own wood burning sauna and stunning views looking out to Lake Orivesi. It was really peaceful and it has its own private beach and a rowing boat plus a swing which I must admit I spent quite a bit of time on there. The centre of Kitee is about 20 minutes away in a car so if like me you do not drive order a taxi through the Menava app. It cost me €87 return trip but the compromise is the absolute stunning views. I visited the Nightwish Museum in the centre of Kitee. There is a Merimekko shop and others shops which includes an S Market and a K Market. I would stay here again and nothing was too much trouble for Passi and his mom."
