Best Hotels near Ystävyyden viila, Jyvaskyla

Location is not far from main stations. I think we had to lift our baby carriage on the steps but there weren't so many of them. After check-in there was free coffee and bisquits in the lobby! We took them into our room which was clean, with new furnitures. Their rooms are always for three, so there's no need for a pack'n'play, because you can put your baby into third bed. There was a little kitchenette so you can buy from a supermarket something little and eat in your room. That's why we didn't buy breakfast so we can't say anything about it. This hotel (chain) is really green, so they have plenty of different carbage cans where you can sort your rubbishes. We can recommend this hotel for everybody but especially for those, who are interested about sustainable things.

I thought wifi wasn't working and went to mcdonald's across the street with my laptop. Eventually I was told to open the hostel's official site, and indeed it helped (I even checked when I was still at the mcdonald's and managed to connect from there). During my stay this happened several times but now I knew what to do. I was alone in a basic double room, this was fine for me. Way too small for two people, especially if you want to use a laptop.

Hotel was pretty good. Rooms are clean and nice but would need small update i guess. But nothing huge just small signs of wear here and there. We were still very happy with the room. The service at the lobby was very kind and this place had awesome breakfast. 5/5. We checked the gym and it had all the basic things you can imagine to do a good workout. Parking lot was good also.

I spent many days at Hotel Verso. My room was perfectly clean and breakfast was fantastic, essentially made just with local produce (but why there was no fresh fruit?). I found disappointing how dark my room was, indeed all its windows overlooked a mall gallery. In a place like Finland famous for its white summer nights, it's unacceptable to be forced to keep the lights on all day. Then, at reception everybody was very kind but completely uninformed about everything. For example I asked some basic questions about local bus timetables and I was provided with wrong info. One of the ladies at the reception told me that there were no rides after 4 pm. This sounded so odd to me that I preferred to doublecheck in a R kiosk (a sort of newsstand that sell also public transportation tickets) and there I got confirmation that there were bus rides practically every hour, every day. Then, what I found unacceptable is that the phone in my room didn't work, and so I couldn't call the reception. A lady of room service told me that the phone was blocked and to unblock it a puk code was needed (on phone display I could read a strange message such as”insert PUK code”or similar). She explained that replacing the device wasn't the solution, the problem would have lasted. In her opinion to get a working phone I needed to change room... Unbelievable. I honestly expected much more based on the reviews I had read on this hotel. There are some aspects I really liked of this place but many others that need to be improved.

We stayed in Scandic Laajavuori from Sunday to Monday. It would be important to let the guests to know that the restaurant is closed on Sundays. The lobby cafe serves snacks but has no vegetarian options (only hot dogs, meat pies and salads with chicken or shrimp). We did not realize this and ended up in a situation at 6 PM where the only option to have proper food is to drive to the city centre which is several kilometres away. The breakfast on Monday morning was also serving old bread and for instance cucumber from the previous day. So I really can not recommend staying here on Sunday! Other than the food issues, the premises are great, particularly with kids, there are a lot of activities for them both indoors and outdoors. The pool is nice and warm and serves well for its purposes.

Stayed at this hotel for a special event, had a room upgrade and a bottle of Prosecco and chocolate and a welcome card waiting for us upon arrival. Room was very clean and comfy, great bed, fluffy towels, all nice and clean. And great views from the 8th floor too. Lots of choice at breakfast. Staff in this hotel are particularly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help. Great location too.

I had a great stay with my dogs! The service was professional and friendly. The staff really took my dogs into consideration as a towel and a water bowl were waiting for them in our room in addition to a surprise bag we got at check in. Location was perfect, close to everything. I really enjoyed the breakfast. The noise from the bathroom disturbed a little, but overall we are very happy with our stay and will be visiting again! :)
