This is a superb hotel. We stayed for 4 nights in December and enjoyed ourselves tremendously.
The prison conversion has been accomplished to a very high standard with loads of original features incorporated: cast iron stairs, the chapel and even an isolation cell.
The rooms were warm and comfortable, being decorated to a high standard.
Breakfast was included at our rate and proved to be excellent with plenty of choice, including Finnish specialities.
We ate dinner at the hotel on 2 occasions as it was included and suited our plans. It was a buffet and perfectly pleasant, but not exceptional. Fika (afternoon tea and cake) was a lovely touch and very welcome on a cold day.
Staff were friendly, helpful and naturally spoke faultless English.
The number 4 tram stops right outside and takes you directly to the city centre at least every 7 minutes.
