Absolutely surprizing experience

Hotel in great location, situated on the shore of Jyväsjärvi lake in the middle of university campuses. 20 minutes from local airport. Very comfortable and practically furnished rooms with an excellent view of the lake (I recommend choosing a room with a private sauna, it's really worth it). Good breakfast, the hotel restaurant is also good. What is really brilliant, is the very nice and helpful reception staff, who will give you comprehensive information about local transport, sights, and will recommend a really great local restaurant (Kissanviisket, you must visit). Jyväskylä has very nice Alvar Aalto museum, Central Finland museum and, nearby in Tikkakoski you will find the Finnish Air Force Museum.

Amazing restaurant!

I piced this hotel at random, as it was directly on my route. The hotel itself is nothing "special", everything is as expected. Okay, the location by the lake is superb, and the service was very friendly and professional. But what struck me was the restaurant. It was absolutely incredible – I planned to get a quick bite, but looking at the menu I knew that wasn't going to be the case. The menu was full of amazing sounding dishes, and I had a hard time to make choices, everything looked so fantastic. And the dishes themselves didn't disappoint, the food was absolutely fantastic, also very well served and presented: 10/10. Highly recommended for foodies!

Great view by the lake

Beautiful location by the lake. Lots of free parking spots nearby. The room was small and noisy but cheap. Breakfast was okay, pretty standard. The location and the view are definitely the highlights of this place, everything else was just okay.

Alba review

When we got to our room we noticed that the floors had not been cleaned. Quite a bit of dust balls crumbs etc around. We complained at reception and went for dinner when we returned it had been taken care of. We loved the location. Right in the lake, we managed to swim off of the dock of the hotel. Breakfast was very nice. We would go here again.

As long as the restaurant is avoided, this is a charming, lovely place to stay with clean, quiet rooms at a reasonable price point. The staff are joyful, welcoming and could not have been more helpful - all in all a wonderful experience and I will revisit! :c)

A great find

Somewhat hidden away but surprisingly walkable to downtown, our rooms had beautiful views of a lake. Furnishings and amenities were basic. The ample breakfast, with hot dishes constantly replenished, included Finnish specialties, in a most pleasant dining room.
