Clean, modern, GREAT facilities. An amazing relief after two years of horrible hotels (unclean, old, carpeted floors) in the US. Saw cleaning too and they seemed to have enough time to properly clean rooms and change glasses etc, wonderful. The restaurant has an amazing selection of vegan breakfast items.

- The hotel location was very secluded, in the middle of a forest and out of nowhere. Don't expect to find local stores/shops, cafes/restaurants or gas stations within 5 km. The nearest one was Lieksa town about 30km from the hotel. - The exterior was old as well as the interior. Nonetheless, it looks like the owner has tried slowly to renew everything to make a good impression on his guests. The room was spacious, the bed was comfy and the TV worked as it should. The cleanliness was also superb. - The owner greeted his guests and was very helpful in giving information about the surrounding area. - The hotel has facilities to do activities indoors or outdoors. They also have a sauna and swimming pool to use.

- The location was great and very close to shops and restaurants. Everything was within walking distance. - The staff were nice and helpful - They located the room in a quiet area (far from street noises) and gave extra pillows as I asked earlier. - The breakfast buffet was also great, varied choices to make. - The hotel offered bicycles for free to explore the city.

A very peaceful and beautiful place to stay! 🥰 We stayed right next to the horse stables, which made the experience even more special. The owners were incredibly kind and friendly, making us feel very welcome. It’s also only about a 10-minute drive to Ukko-Koli, making it a perfect location for exploring the area. Highly recommended!

It is a small town with not much to see.

It is a small town with not much to see. The sauna is "a thing" there. So I think it is a MUST to experience in a Nordic town. The food was not so great. However, the vegetables and fruits at the market square were fresh and delicious.

Koli National Park was formed by tens of thousands of years...

Koli National Park was formed by tens of thousands of years of erosion during the Ice Age, so the trails and hills are covered with large and small rocks. There are rich landscape changes during the journey. In autumn, the leaves are dyed red, yellow and orange. With a variety of colorful scenes, Koli National Park is a great place to enjoy autumn scenery. Climbing up the hills, you will see a 180-degree view of the lake unfolding in front of you, and you will be shocked by the magnificent scenery - and the trails are also very beautiful. The signs are very clear, so you don’t have to worry about getting lost if you’re walking alone.

The snow is perfect there, clean, deep and fresh. If you know where to go, Outokumpu and the countryside around it have a lot to offer. To me, it is very magical and I love the old mine. People are very friendly.

There is a good shop and hotel in the middle of the village, plus also another hotel on the top of the hill "Koli". Neart he village also "Räsävaara" observation tower allowing good views to the forest landscape and lake. Also the new hotel in the Kolinkylä village is easy to see from observation tower. You need a car to get around.

I have been visiting Joensuu since 2012. In the winter season, the city looks very beautiful as it gets covered with a fantastic blanket of snow. The sight of the frozen river is just stunning! I love the city for its cozy and peaceful atmosphere and the kindness of the locals.

It's a small but cute little place with excellent hiking options. Few other locations along with Koli are close by in case you wish to see more. Very easy to get to see the Akka-, Ukko- and Paha-Koli and enjoy the view to lake Pielinen. I recommend to drive also to the harbour and see lake Pielinen also from the shore.
