Scandic Tampere Hämeenpuisto

The room was nice and clean and the staff very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was nice and versatile.

The room is stripped to minimum. There is absolutely nothing extra - the minibar is empty, there are no napkins or any complementary toiletry in the bathroom, there is no complementary tea/coffee available in the room, 1 pillow per person only, nor is there an option to share your own media from the phone to the tv (something that is pretty much available in all modern hotels today). So although there was nothing wrong in particular, it did not give any sense of any luxury whatsoever.

The hotel had a modern, inviting style with a nice room and sizeable bathroom, comfortable bed and a sofa. The breakfast held a good a variety of warm dishes and cold cuts which was displayed delicately. The location was quite central with only a small stroll towards the main streets. If one arrives by car, there are accessible parking in a parking house around the corner of the hotel.

The way from the parking house towards the reception was poorly explained, which could lead to confusion.

Very good value for money. Great location and easy parking in the hotel garage. Within walking distance of the city center and all main attractions. A decent hotel restaurant that offered entertainment for children as well. The hotel sauna had a good (high) temperature.

Breakfast was crowded. Around 9, a queue started to form in the reception area, because there weren't enough tables for everyone. We didn't like the fact that the pancakes were only for children (of course we ate them anyway). Our room was a bit dated but that's what you get for paying less.

Breakfast was super vegan friendly, I could fill up a plate and then some. Chickpea pancakes is a whole new contender to e.g. my all-time favourite potato pancakes. Very sustainable way of running a hotel overall!

Minor niggles with plumbing, but they have sorted them out right there and then!

Very environmentally friendly, a bin provided for recycling – thus sorting the rubbish we throw out. Housekeeping didn't replace towels, unless indicated, A+!

The towels were so fluffy, they were leaving lots of flying fluff in the bathroom, making me go "what the fluff!" :D

Good location on a quiet boulevard, fast check-in.

At breakfast, there was a lot of empty tables full of used tableware. We spent around 30 mins and nobody came to clean tables around us. People had to move around the restaurant in order to find a space to sit down.

Easy to find, parking just around the corner, 1min walk from hotel. Easy Check in, standard room, comfortable and clean. Many to choose from for breakfast. Little bit noisy thanks to size of the hotel, but all good. NOt hotel which would make you WOAH but wont disappoint you neither.

Location, decor, convenience, price.

Bedroom was REALLY hot. Thermostat wouldn't turn down any lower than 21C, and it felt a lot hotter in the room. It was pretty uncomfortable for sleeping.

Breakfast ideal - pleanty of choice. Voffee could have been a bit stronger!

We accidentell left 1 lit gin & Campari when leaving - I hope somrige enjoyed that bonus!

I had to leave at 3.00 am, so receptionist offered to prepare breakfast for takeaway. That was very nice and coffee tasted great 😊

Sauna closes at 22.00
