We spent two nights at Hotel Kakola over the Mid-Summer break with the family. The hotel was unique and the atmosphere was welcoming, and the rooms were modern, clean, and well-designed. Our stay included breakfast and the hotel offers plenty of variety of options . The staff was friendly and helpful. We also had the chance to relax and enjoy the SPA with additional charge. Overall we have enjoyed our stay at Hotel Kakola and I recommend it to anyone looking for a special experience in Turku.

Excellent hotel in Turku

Hotel Kakola is wonderful and unique. Previous prison has been renovated with good taste and quality. The prison theme has been used in good manner in decoration. Room was like new and clean. Bed was excellent. Room was silent and even the A/C was very quiet but worked perfectly. The only thing which could be better is parking hall where the slots are rather narrow for modern cars.

What a unique place to stay! A boutique hotel built in the former County Prison atop the highest hill in Turku. It's such an interesting place. I should say first that I only awarded four stars because I happened to have a very small -- though nicely appointed and functional -- room. I'm sure I would have given the fifth star if a larger room had been available for me. (I should say that my bathroom was surprisingly large for a small room). The hilltop is so interesting. The best place to watch an 11 p.m. sunset in Turku in June. A short distance from the hotel is an even more imposing former prison -- now condos, restaurants, and a bar. It was an amazing area to explore, and although a little bit outside the center of town, the hilltop is actually closer to the castle, maritime museum, ferries, and riverwalk than places more central, all accessible via a fun, free funicular if you choose not to walk down the hill. Highly recommended.

Erittäin laadukas ja hyvä aamupala. Myös illalla syötiin ravintolassa erittäin hyvä ruoka. Hinta-laatusuhde oli kohdallaan. Ravintola oli todella siisti ja mielenkiintoinen historiahavinan myötä. Niin upeasti sisustettu ja kaunis. Kiitos, tulemme toistekkin <3

Viihtyisä kova yhden hengen huone, joka tuntui kuin omalta pikku pesältä. Viereisestä huoneista ei kuulunut ääniä, mutta käytävältä kyllä. Sain vaihtaa huonetta toiseen kerrokseen, kun kolmannessa kerroksessa oli joka ilta jotkut juhlat. Huoneen kattolamput alkoivat valojen sammuttamisen jälkeen pitää outoa ääntä, mutta respasta sai seuraavaksi yöksi yölampun ja kehoituksen sammuttaa kattovalot jo hieman aiemmin, niin valojen poksuna ei häiritse yöunia. Lamput ilmeisesti olivat tulleet tiensä päähän. Sänky oli ihanan pehmeä ja huoneessa oli sopivan lämmin.
