Scandic Atlas

The best hotel in Kuopio because the hotel's service and quality are top notch and the hotel's location is the best. Next to the hotel, under the market, there is a large, clean car parking hall, from where you can walk inside the hotel. The rooms are clean and the heating control is good. This hotel is therefore in the best location of the city of Kuopio, next to the center. Nice and lively head next to the market. The inhabitants of the city of Kuopio are happy, talkative, helpful and honest. This city still has good Christianity and a Protestant Bishop in power. Here it is also nice to move along the different streets to the lake shore. Even to swim or play tennis. Near the hotel there are restaurants, shops, an interesting fresh market and nice cafes. The center of Kuopio and the hotel is a safe environment for vacationing, shopping, eating, drinking coffee and being and enjoying yourself. In addition, Kuopio has the best Police in Finland. The police arrive at the market in emergency situations in about 5 minutes. I have also lived in Kuopio for 20 years.

The breakfast is absolutely great and varied. The breakfast room is a great historical room next to the market. The hotel is right next to the great and big Kuopio market. A very good and quality hotel in the center of Kuopio. Professional and friendly staff. And a wonderfully versatile big breakfast. Clean rooms. The hotel is also right next to the wonderful and versatile market square of Kuopio. And all other services a short walk away: 1) Department store Carlson 10 meters away 2) Grocery store S market Sokos 50 meters 3) Fresh market strawberries 50 meters 4) Large secure parking garage via elevator 50 meters 5) Pharmacy 100 meters 6) MacDonalds 10 meters 7) Good restaurants 50 meters 8) Lots of nice bars and pubs within 100 meters

The bed was big and very comfortable. There were different pillows among which to choose the best one for myself. The breakfast was good and with a lot of different offer. The location is great!!!

The shower and the bathroom share the same floor so it can get messy. But they give you a toolkit to dry it, in case too much water goes out.

The location of the hotel is right in the middle of the city centre. Every bus stop is just a walking distance. You can easily go to the airport using one of the bus stops. The train station is just less than 10 mins by walk from the hotel. Google map was very helpful for me as I can easily get directions and bus schedules from it. The cost of a 1-hour single ticket is 3.30 EUR. I would advise anyone visiting Kuopio to download the bus app (app name: Vilkkus) as you can buy tickets using your credit card if you don't have a Finnish bank card, with many options like a 1-day ticket, 2-days ticket etc to choose from (it is far cheaper than buying multiple 1- hour single tickets from the bus driver). There are adults and kids ticket price options in the app. The breakfast was delicious with many choices to make from. The room was super clean and the staff were very friendly and ready to help. There are bicycles at the hotel which you can borrow for a couple of hours. Despite being in the city centre, you can hardly hear any noise around.

None

Great location in the centre of Kuopio. Very friendly staff , that nothing was too much for. Perfectly equipped bedrooms, ours had a view of the market square. Fab breakfast with choice of hot or cold options. And also gluten and lactose free options.

Very small thing ,would have liked tea/ coffee making facilities in room.

Central location, close to everything. Comfortable bed, quiet. As central as you can be in Kuopio. Go to The market place in front of the hotel for breakfast or lunch or just to taste local fruits,snacks.

Nothing negative to say.

wonderful finnish hospitaility

A really good location, nice breakfast, very helpful stuff and really good air conditioning in the room

A bit too expensive for a hotel that looks kinda old-ish. The window of my room was right in front of the clothing store window

Ideal location in town centre.

My overall impression is that the hotel needs a refurbishment. The decor is starting to get a bit old and tired. There was a faint cigarette smell in my room.

It was 100% optimal
