Finally a rerasonably priced Finland hotel

Reviewed By aekrfk

Joensuu was not our destination but a place to stop for the night on our self drive route. We had been paying an average of $200 USD a night at Finland hotels. What a pleasure to come across Greenstar hotel! About $100 with a nice room and free parking. Front desk staff was very nice and she recommended a great restaurant walking distance from the hotel. There was construction going on in the street so we asked for a quiet room in the back which was in reality very quiet. Highly recommend.

Paksuniemen Majatalo

Totally impressed by this charming place

Reviewed By marymO6822IX

We ate dinner, spent the night with 3 kids and enjoyed a very generous brunch, included in the price of the rooms, the next morning. The dinner was good, very tasty muikku and a pizza that was excellent. It was karaoke night at the restaurant so the kids got to hear some music and dance to the tango. The rooms were spotless and charmingly decorated. My bedroom had a calming view of the lake. Brunch the next morning was excellent and exceeding generous. The omelette was absolutely fantastic. This place totally exceeded my expectations and I'll be back when visiting friends in the area next year. Kids got to swim at cute little beach and watch the boats come and go.

Huono kokemus / low quality with services

Reviewed By Taru_Meritie

If you come to Kitee, you should not come this place. In Sunday there was no services at all and even the price should include the breakfast, there was no breakfast at all. They say that it's because of Covid19, but there was not information at all of that in the room. When you look the hotels own websites there is information that you will have you breakfast to your room. But there was not. Also there was not staff at all, and all door was lock. After you call to some number you get someone to tell you information. We ask if we could have double bed, but maybe there is no doublebed at all in the hotel, or they just did not want to give us that. Even the hotel seems to be empty. I think if you come to Finland you will get really nice rooms with great location and services with same price. But not from here. I don't recommend for anyone. Varasin huoneen tästä hotellistqa läheiselleni äitienpäiväviikonlopppuyöksi. Olen matkustellut Suomessa eri tason yöpymispaikoissa paljon. Hotellin yöpymishinta oli tasoon nähden korkea. Toivoimme huoneeseen parivuodetta mutta ilmeisesti sitä ei ollut saatavilla koko hotellista sillä tyhjyydestä huolimatta tätä toivetta ei oltu huomoitu. Hintaan kuului aamiainen. Hotellin sivuilta löytyi erillinen info että koronan vuoksi aamiainen saatetaan tarjoilla jääkaappiin. Erillisestä informointia tästä ei ollut huoneissa, eikä siitä informoitu myöskään hotelliin soitettaessa. Aamulla kaikki ovet sekä aulapalvelu oli kiinni. Etsimisen ja puhelujen jälkeen selvisti että aamiaista ei tarjoilla lainkaan. Hintaan tämä ei vaikuttanut. Hotellista ja sen palvelusta jäin tasoton ja ei-palvelualtis olo.

We booked a week of Guesthouse to Guesthouse Cross Country Skiing with Mina. Impressed with how well organised the week was. We stayed in 3 different Guest houses the last one being Minnas Majatalo Pihlajapuu / Aksyt Ammat Oy. The facilities were great. Boot, Ski hire, excellent guiding, very friendly guest houses. Loads and loads of great mostly locally sourced and prepared / cooked food. The smoked sauna experience was unique.

Guest House Puukarin Pysakki

Superb atmosphere and lovely food

Reviewed By Anna B

I had the pleasure to stay at this extraordinary b&b for two nights as part of a skiing trip organised by Aksyt Ammat travel agency. On Finland, it's for some reason very rare to come by authentic Karelian food. This place has it all from tasty pies to the traditional meat stew and yummy home made jams, all of course organic and from the local farmers/hunters. The sauna was absolutely amazing, and I really appreciated the attention to detail, such as the candles and the nice soaps and shampoos. The rooms are quite basic but clean and comfy. With the cold winter temperatures, I wouldn't have minded a warmer duvet though. The hostess Anni and her entire family made us feel very welcome. I'm definitely visiting Puukarin Pysäkki again!

A relaxing weekend in the middle of nature

Reviewed By Timo M

We stayed here for a weekend on easter of 2017 and I have nothing but good things to say about the place and its hosts. First of all, the hosts were extremely helpful and friendly and they made us feel like home immediately upon arriving. They let us know about all the possibilities of things to do around the area and kindly answered all our questions about hiking and the history of the place. We ended up ice fishing (which was amazing), catching our own fish and cooking it and then going to the barrel sauna they had outside. The breakfast was very good and we felt extremely relaxed after our stay. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for relaxation.

Kyykerin Kartano

Ok

Reviewed By 187dunc

The B&B is situated in a quiet town. I wouldn't say that there's anything overly wrong with the B&B, as the host was lovely, the décor is cool and cosy, breakfast was good and there's a filter coffee machine in the common area. But I didn't really like sharing a bathroom and there was also an odd smell in the room. Don't worry, not a bad smell but something that put me off a little hence the average rating. But if you're happy to share a bathroom, then I'd say it's a good choice.
