Hotelli keskellÀ kauneinta Suomea

Sijainti on erinomaisen kaunis, maisemat todella kauneinta Suomea. Oma huoneeni oli Keisarinnan Huvilassa. Kun pahimmat helteet olivat majoittuessani jo ohi, ei ilmastoinnin puuttuminen huoneesta haitannut. Kaikki muut asiat huoneessa oli todella erinomaista; tilava, erinomainen vuode, sisustus. Erityismaininnan ansaitsee Ravintola MetsÀ, jossa tarjolla oli erinomainen illallinen ja todella maistuva aamiainen. LÀhiruokaa parhaimmillaan! Ulkoilumahdollisuudet kauniissa luonnossa tekevÀt tÀstÀ hotellista hyvÀn lomakohteen vaikkapa kesÀviikonlopuksi.

Ihana Hotel Punkaharju

Hotelli Punkaharju on upea kohde jo pelkÀstÀÀn luonnon ja sen historian takia. Majoituimme viehÀttÀviin rantamökkeihin, joissa mökeissÀ ei ole WC/suihkua. MeillÀ oli ns huussi tien toisella puolella. Huoltorakennuksen WC- & suihkutilat vajaan 100m pÀÀssÀ. ErittÀin siisti ja mukava mökki. HellekesÀnÀ hyttysverkko -ikkunat pelastivat meidÀt, kun saimme lÀpivedon aikaiseksi. Mökin senkissÀ baarijÀÀkaappi juomineen sekÀ kahvin-/teenkeittomahdollisuus. Makuuhuoneen lisÀksi mukava alkovi/istuinryhmÀ (=vuodesohva). Hotellin julkiset tilat siistit. Rav. MetsÀssÀ tarjoiltu aamiainen on mielestÀni aivan poikkeuksellinen Suomessa. Aamiainen on kattava, ei laaja, mutta erinomaisen laadukas paikallisista tuotteista koostuva. Puolet tarjolla noutopöydÀstÀ puolet tilattavissa à la carte-listalta omien mieltymysten mukaisesti. Gluteenittomuus huomioitu erinomaisesti. Champagnea / huokuviiniÀ myös tilattavissa erillistÀ korvausta vastaan.

Ei hintansa arvoinen

Pieni huone, todella kuuma. SisÀÀnkirjautumisen yhteydessÀ pyydettiin maksamaan huone uudelleen vaikka maksettu jo. Ei kerrottu aamupalan aikataulusta tms, jouduin myöhemmin palaamaan selvittÀmÀÀn asiaa. Ohimennen toisilta asiakkailta kuulin aamusaunasta, tÀstÀkin olisi ollut hyvÀ kertoa. Aamupalalla osa tuotteista oli tilattava erikseen, esim jugurtti, palvelu oli hidasta ja muu aamupala oli aikaa sitten syöty kun tilaus tuli. Periaatteessa ihan ok yöpyminen, jos hinta olisi ollut puolet nykyisestÀ- tÀhÀn hintaan odotan jo vÀhÀn enemmÀn.

Quiet luxury living at its best

Staying at Hotel Punkaharju was the highlight of our week long trip in Finland. A historic destination among the most beautiful landscapes in the whole country (a road leading to the hotel called Vuosisadan tie was voted as the most scenic in Finland), Hotel Punkaharju has been restored to its old grandeur with just the right touches of modern day living. Shampoos and conditioners from FrÀntsilÀ, adored those. Best bed we slept in during the entire trip. The beautiful surrounding nature and a morning dip in lake Puruvesi, heaven. Are the hotel rooms a bit pricey? Yes, and they should be. This type of stay is the epitomy of the quiet luxury trend. Especially the breakfast and separate menu dinner at Restaurant MetsÀ - just oozing that impeccable respect for both high standard local ingredients and excellent customer service. I urge everyone traveling in Savonlinna region to book a night or two at Hotel Punkaharju. Truly an experience worth living.
