Positives : fast and good check inn and service in the restaurant, convenient parking garage, our rooms were simple but clean and not noisy, breakfast was fresh and varied. We had no problems with internet or hot water in the bathroom. Negatives: the cold floor in the bathroom, a bit hot to sleep.

Stayed two nights on business trip. Typical functional Holiday Inn - clean, comfortable, unremarkable. Good choice of different foods for breakfast. The staff were all very pleasant, professional and very helpful with an early morning (4h30!) check-out

There is only one member of the staff at reception. Answering the telephone should not be considered to be more important than serving the guests who try to check in. Checking out at 12 AM - as required - turned out to be impossible: one person tried to serve 10-20 guests. Checking out should not take longer than HALF AN... More

I used this hotel first time in early 90's, when it belonged to Finnish Rivoli brand. Then it was operated quite a long time under Ramada brand and belonging to Finnish Restel-group. Some years ago, maybe 2005-2006 it was changed to Holiday Inn brand. Restel-group is known about their way to manage the hotels: They will not refurbish the rooms,... More

Like so many other Holiday Inn hotels this one is a good business travel hotel with no personal touches. Rooms are clean and quiet, it´s near the shopping street and ca. 25 minutes to airport by taxi.
