Mostly good – great location & friendly staff. The ventilation was very bad though – the aircon didn’t stop the room being very stuffy and smelly. If the window was openable (even by 10 or 20cm) that would make it a lot nicer, and probably wouldn’t let anyone fall out. It would also be much nicer if there was a kettle in the room, to save having to go downstairs to get a cup of coffee

Short trip to downtown Kuopio

If you want to visit the center of Kuopio and do shopping, this is the most convenient place. Located smack in the center, with underground Marketplace parking and just next door to Sokos shoping center, you will enjoy your convenient location.

Basic, but warm and comfy hotel

Good location, very friendly staff, comfy bed (although the pillows were either rock solid or soft and lumpy). The room was a good size and seemed very well sound-proofed. A kettle and tea/coffee in the room would be welcome, but the inclusive breakfast was very nice so it wasn't a huge issue.

Great location, just cross the street and you are at the famous Kuopio market place. Very clean rooms and of all the places we have stayed Atlas breakfast has been the best, 4 min eggs, 7 min eggs, bacon, sausage, berries, various breads and of course Karjalanpiirakka. Breakfast was by far the largest and best quality I’ve seen. Car parking under the hotel, accessible by two elevators. Rooms were spacious.

I liked the friendly reception, but I didn’t like the state of the room.. We arrived on Friday and the room was not cleaned at all. Asked for new towels on Sunday and was promised to get fresh one but alas nothing happened on that day and our bed was not even made!!! Despite leaving things in order in the room. Please improve on cleaning, we noticed dust had accumulated inside the side beds.
