Best Hotels near Turku Railway Station, Turku

The Small double room is indeed small but everything is organised very well – you find power sockets exactly where you want them to find, lamp illuminates sufficiently at the desktop and another one is nicely located in the headboard. Breakfast includes mainly cold options (apart from porridge), but variety is great. Paid parking might be a bit overpriced, though it's conveniently located nearly next to your bedroom.

We got excellent service via e-mail before our stay. The hotel has a good location. It was clean and comfortable. We got friendly service at the hotel. Breakfast was good. At some point there was lots of crowd waiting for elevators or looking a table for breakfast. The night was silent. No noise from the corridor. Easy to come with train. Not so many parking places for the car.

We stayed one night in Turku at Scandic Atrium. We chose this hotel since it had a pool and was at a good location near city center. When arriving we found at that the parking available wasnt free (13€ for 24h so not too bad), there was a 20min queue to the reception (seemed to be that way all night whenever we wanted to ask something we decided we can survive without). We were travelling with a toddler and had mentioned that when booking, still the bed in the room was a single bed definitely not suitable for a toddler (would have fallen off), but luckily we brought our own travel bed so solved the situation with that. We would have contacted the reception but as mentioned before, the long waiting time was not an option with an increasingly impatient toddler. We had a nice dinner, went down to the pool only to discover that there was only one dressing room for men and women, which was reserved for women 17-19, and men 19.30-22, when they had their sauna turns. Not so fun for a travelling family to have to send the man upstairs to shower in the room instead of being able to do it downstairs by the pool. The ladder to the pool was really tricky to use and an elderly lady we met said she barely got up from there and called the ladder ”for sporty people only”. Anyways, we got a nice swim in the deep pool with some folks doing water aerobics at the same time and enjoyed a short sauna visit afterwards. Then we headed to the room for some much needed rest, only to discover that there was no air-conditioning in the room. With temperatures being +25 outside, the room was sooo warm, so we all had a hard time sleeping. Safe to say we were happy when morning came and we got to enjoy the lovely standardized breakfast. After that we wanted to check out the children's play area near our room, but the doors were closed with no information regarding opening hours. I've spent many nights at Scandic Kuopio and compared to that this was just not as nice. Summa summarum - not the worst hotel stay but could also definitely have been a lot better.

On a freezing cold and windy April day at Ruissalo we called at the Spa hotel for a warm meal while waiting for bus transportation. The restaurant was offering a buffet lunch with hot soup and we thought it was ideal for the occasion. However the staff were most objectionable when we asked for a table and in spite of there being an abundance of empty seats we were refused entry on the basis of only groups should be admitted. When asked for their definition of group - there were four in our party - we were ushered to the cafe counter where the only offerings were underwhelming and overpriced bread rolls and weak coffee. I have not experienced such service and would not recommend anyone to patronise the restaurant.

The room is very clean and spacious. The checkin process was stressful - had to wait outside for 40min as the *********** code I was sent didn’t work and neither did the phone number. Luckily, another locked out person found a working phone number online and the man I spoke with was really helpful. Loud drilling directly above my room (head) every morning at 7:30-8am onwards - waking me up with mild terror, preventing further sleep and starting what should have been relaxing days with a touch of anxiety. Great location though. Imagine when they’ve finished building it staying will be much better, but the drilling was awful.
