My parents and I were planning to stay in Helsinki in the middle of March but because of some sad reasons we had canceled that trip. Anyway, we wanted to spend a nice weekend in the end of March, but not to go far from Russian-Finnish border control (since this procedure itself takes a lot of time cause of Russian... More

Got a double at the new spa hotel connected to the old Imatranhovi by an underground tunnel. The new and the old hotel are from two different worlds. The lobby of the new hotel looked really depressing. Maybe that is why the reception is in the old side. The room looked nice, but the bath tub was loose and I... More

The hotel looks very nice, it's a bit like a small castle. Some of the rooms - like mine - are in a "new" building, which isn't as nice as the old building. The hotel is located very near to the famous rapids, so the surroundings are very nice, especially in the summertime. The hotel is part of the Rantasipi... More

great location in the center of Imatra - near the russian border. Amazing view. Like it came from a fairytale. I'm sure that at the summer time it's much more beutiful, so I guess we'll be back) Food and service were great as well. One huuuuuge disadvantage - no free wifi. !

We overnighted at the two-floor tower suite. The room was something I had never experienced before: it was very spacious and the lower room had a big bed room, bath room and a sauna. The tower lounge room (the second floor) was a round room with small windows to all directions. Good bed and good pillows. The room itself is... More

I´ve been here a couple of times, mostly just eating in the restaurant. The atmosphere and rooms in the castle-side are nice. Staff is very kind. Value for money in restaurant is ok. So sad there is no nightclub or drink bar late at night.

Breakfast was served in main building and it was charming, old days clamour. The main building was outside under renovation. The staff were helpful and... More

There is the old hotel which is the castle you see, I cannot comment on these rooms and then there is a new block reached by a tunnel which... More

Stayed in room overlooking the rapids when the water is released from the dam. It was an awesome view. Hotel could use updating but not reduce the historic value. Really liked the history of the hotel. Slept with the door open on the balcony and slept very well.
