Original Sokos Hotel Seurahuone Kotka

The staff were very polite, friendly and approachable. They had some good advice on what to do and what to see for a short stay / visit.

The air conditioning system in the room made a lot of noise, not referring to the 'fan' noise, but the switch board or something else that kept engaging and disengaging. There was no way to get any fresh air in the room as the windows were kept locked. It's a pity not to be able to enjoy the cool evening breeze and save some energy by switching off the air conditioning system.

In my booking I asked for a quiet room on an upper floor and got one - 714 that didn't overlook a street, comfortable and modern and I slept well. Cool light affects that dim with a touch. Easy underground parking, worth the additional charge. Breakfast buffet was very good and had everything needed. Staff very fiendly and helpful. WIFI excellent - I ended up watching a movie on my laptop though because I couldn't get to an HDMI connection on the TV as it is fastened close to the wall. My stay was for going to the Maritime Museum the next day, highly recommend. On the way out of town I stopped by the Longinkoski Imperial Fishing Lodge, interesting historic place.

Nice breakfast with enough vegan options (vegan meatballs, beans in tomato sauce, alternative milks, vegan sliced cheese and sausage, vegetables), great location. There is free parking alongside the road. The family room had a double bed and a bunk bed (single on the top, double on the bottom), both very comfortable, and two bathrooms with a shower each. A great stay overall, would definitely come back!

Parking underground was €15 for 24 hours — would be great to have it included in the room price.

We had a very warm welcome, even though we arrived at 2am in the morning. Our night receptionist (Minna?) was particularly kind and thoughtful, and we appreciated the ‘extra touches’ to help us feel at home! Our room was delightful, the breakfast excellent, the staff friendly, helpful and accommodating. We could not recommend this lovely hotel more. Thank you for a great stay!

Excellent location in the middle of the beautiful city center and the Sibelius park. Good restaurants and excellent breakfast. Staff outstandingly smiling and serving your needs. The city with jugend and other stylish old buildings surrounded by sea and magnificent parks are just around this hotel and reachable by walk.

It’s right in the city centre. it feels modern and has everything you need. The breakfast buffet was great and the staff very helpful and professional. good choice of restaurants with good food and drinks. I had a very pleasant stay.

Breakfast was excellent, lots of choice and great quality. The gym was very nice and good quality machines Great restaurant with cozy atmosphere.

Sauna availability every day (I don't believe it is)

I travelled with my colleagues. The breakfast was nice. Staff was very helpful.

The walls were super thin. Can hear everything what happened next door. As I'm very slight sleeper it was tiring.

Everything is excellent.

The breakfast was quite simple for 4* hotel. Price is high taking into account that parking costs additionaly 15 euro.

The best family room ever! Spacious, nice design, 2 WC/showers. Both we and children are really happy about our stay. Very nice staff.
