This hotel has been recently renovated and the facelift is indeed an improvement. However, it is true to Scandic DNA. Scandic originally was a chain of motels, and they seem to be more true to their heritage than for a while. They call it eco-friendly, I call it cost cutting and making your guest feel guilty. My taxi had trouble... More

Spent two nights on the 6th floor. It's an old hotel but totally renovated. Rooms are nice and modern and clean and beds are good to sleep in. Breakfast is a buffet breakfast with plenty of choices (even bacon!). Restaurant is modern but cosy. Location is central and close to the river (and river boats with bars etc). I only... More

Hotel Julia in Turku was already quite worn out, but after recent total renovation it looks great. The old, dark and small breakfast room has been extended to a modern restaurant, the reception lobby is welcoming and rooms very cosy. We had a room on second floor facing the busy street, and I was a bit worried about the noise,... More

The location of Hotel Julia is very central to sightseeing, shopping and business meetings in Turku. Room was very clean and modern, recently refurbished (Scandinavian style). Not very large but functional. The room was quiet and I slept well although I prefer a larger bed (this was two single beds put together). Breakfast was good and staff friendly. One unprofessional...

It's an ok 3 star hotel (have seen much worse 4 stars). Room was very basic (no minibar) and as usual for Scandic hotels - double room is two single beds drawn together. Anyway I'd say it's rather convenient hotel in the middle of Turku - only few steps from the main market place. Although I didn't expect much of... More

The recent renovation is smart and functional, with perhaps a rather clinical Scandinavian feel. The modern trend in hotels seems to be towards minimal staff contact, probably to save costs, but the art of hospitality is all about being dare I say it....being hospitable. The Reception staff were efficient and courteous but the breakfast staff were officious as they were... More

Scandic Julia Turku was apparently reopened recently, and it looks really new. The reception and the restaurants are on the second floor (there is a not-so-nice shopping center on the ground floor), the 3rd and 4th floors are used as a car park, and the rooms are from floor 4 to 6. My room was not very large but very... More

This hotel is nicely renovated but they forgot the basic cost of entry into the market. There is no fridge in the room and no tea or coffee making facilities. There are no power points in the bathroom. Although there is an iron ( non steam ) and ironing board it is almost impossible to find somewhere to plug it... More
