Scandic Rosendahl

Beautiful remote lakefront location, with walking trails, bikes available. Breakfast good with gluten/lactose free options. Had some amenities challenges initially, but Mia, Front Desk Manager handled the situation professionally. Must have car to travel to this location. Parking included. 10 minute drive to Tampere center. Front desk staff friendly and helpful. We travelled in the fall, however, there is a beach and tennis courts on the property close by.

Hotel is a little dated. Also 'in suite sauna' did not have a handrail and could be very dangerous.

There were 3 of us and we had a HUGE family room. There was a separate bedroom for the adults and 2 bathrooms which was a real bonus. The room was clean and tidy with plenty of space to spread out and for our son to play. The hotel is in a fantastic location with plenty of walking, swimming and nature options nearby. It was nice to feel like you were in the countryside, but only a short ride to the city centre if you wanted to go out. The sauna and pool area were great, and we used these every day. The staff were friendly and helpful so anytime we had questions or needed help they were great.

The only improvement would be food options at the hotel. Apart from a small shop for snacks there was no options to have lunch there, and the evening meal options were very limited so it meant that you had to go out to eat all the time. We were staying when it had just changed to winter hours, so maybe this was why but it would have been nice to have the option to have a proper lunch at the hotel. This is the only reason for marking down to a 9 instead of a 10.

The breakfast I felt was brilliant, a vast variety of food to offer to start your day on the right path. I came to compete for Great Britain in the World Masters Championships, it was my first time attending, and first time in Finland, I felt very relaxed and safe. The pool looks amazing, I got to try it yesterday. I used the gym on the 2nd day and like the equipment in there, I felt it helped. I never get the chance to use a sauna back home, so I took advantage of using it at the hotel and I loved it. The most calm I've felt in a good while. The beds are really comfy. This is the first trip outside of the UK that I have taken since COVID, and it definitely won't be my last.

The only thing I would say was I ate a Angus burger on my first night from the restaurant, I didn't end up eating it all as I was cauious of it being abit to pink for me, and because I was competing I didn't want to take the risk, so all I would suggest is to maybe ask how the customer would like it cooked.

Fantastic breakfast, lots of choice and a special section for vegans and people who need gluten free options (meaning that people who don't, don't accidentally eat it). A really beautiful setting and an excellent conference venue, very well planned and with all amenities close to hand. Being part of the scooter network means not having to use taxis if you prefer not to and it's only 15 mins on a scooter from the railway station.

A minor point but including USB charging points in the rooms would be handy for people who have forgotten a UK socket converter.

In general, I liked everything. I liked the location, the area where the hotel was located. The breakfast was good, but not "wow".

I did not like the design of the hotel and the room - it was somehow cold, uncomfortable. Surprised by the lack of slippers in a room in a 4 star hotel. In terms of value for money, I think the price of 115 euros per night is too high (for 1 person). In my opinion, the price should have been around 85 euros.

Location! Also, though the hotel is old the room was still in good shape. Especially points for the good bed. I requested a quiet room which was also delivered. There is also free parking!

Considering the age of the hotel there wasn’t much not to like. The decor could be updated but it didn’t really make difference to me

Breakfast was included and had a very nice selection of food available. Parking is free for guests as is the use of the Sauna and Pool in the basement.

We couldnt figure out a way to turn off the air conditioning during the night. (we tried all the different modes and it wouldnt stay off for long)

Very fine hotel. Very beautiful and quiet location. Room is spacious, stuff very friendly. Breakfast was excellent. And its just half hour walking distance from centre.

Sauna could be open all day.

Breakfast was good and the hotel is clean and peaceful. There was a little problem with my shower, but the person in the reception handled it so well giving me a little discount.

Breakfast area was quite cold for an inside space. But this was in January which is a really cold time here in Finland.

As a vegetarian I found the breakfast to be varied and substantial. It was well presented. There was plenty of space to spread out in the dining room.
