Park Hotel Turku Hotelli

The minute you walk in the doors this hotel oozes character. The receptionist is so lovely and helpful who made our checkin easy. When we walked in our room, it had so much character with all its quirky furniture and decor. Even having Mona Lisa watch you while you are on the toilet or having a shower is a bit of fun. Breakfast was delicious and we enjoyed spending it with the resident parrot. It’s called Central Park Hotel because it’s in a fantastic spot. The walk from the train station is only 300 meters away and a small supermarket is just around the corner. We walked to the Castle and then along the river back into the Centre and it was an easy walk. Just around the corner up on the hill is the Art museum. I would definitely stay again.

This is a gorgeous, quaint little hotel, nothing like the standard corporate hotel. We loved it. It has beautiful, well maintained gardens and lovely outdoor seating areas. All the rooms are decorated with various quirky bits and pieces. For example, there were several doilies in our room: one with three-dimensional swans, another gold one. There are lots of old things all around the hotel They are what makes it special. You could stay for days and still be discovering new things. Although our room was quite small, there is a good-sized communal lounge where you can relax. It has a billiard table, arm chairs and lots of books. The breakfasts were very good. The only complaints we really had were that the room was very dark and the internet reception was not good.
