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.

Nice hotel, little bit off the town. Room was nice though understandably quite little due previous use. Slept well, breakfast was just like on any other hotel, except no cappuccino. Strong recommendation for nearby Restaurant Kakolanruusu rather than hotel restaurant! ##### Tomi Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pasi 10 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Pasi Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stefan 10 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed. Staff are extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast is amazing: plenty of food choices and Finnish specialties including the Karelian pie (and veggie option of that even). The hotel is modern, clean and tidy, with maintaining a hint of their prison history. The associated part of the building is almost a community: a gym, a spa, bakery, restaurants, shops and a funicular going downhill to the river. Highly recommended, and definitely will stay there when I visit Turku next time. ##### Stefan Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark 5 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Mark Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Kristian 30 May 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Nice hotel with very friendly staff. ##### Kristian Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### GLEN 19 Aug 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great hotel, clean, comfortable, great story! ##### GLEN Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wade 8 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very helpful and friendly staff.
