I have passed this hotel countless of times when visiting Ukko Koli during past 30+ years, but this was first time I actually spent overnight there. The hotel has seen many incarnations, but now it seems to be on a right tract. The hotel is a quite small and quiet and there are a lots of trekking, skiing and other... More

Nice, clean hotel in a spectacular location. Good to remember you are on 'the edge of the middle of nowhere', so if you're expecting 'Four Seasons' treatment from the staff - go there, instead. Back to reality - Try the local food on the menu - it's outstanding! And when booking, ask for a room on the 'lake side' of... More

We (a couple with 7 months old baby) stayed 2 nights in this hotel during our "minivacation" in Eastern Finland this summer. Room was clean and also otherwise in good condition, bed was comfortable. Location and the views from the hotel are just fantastic. For such a short stay it was very convenient that the Finnish National Landscape could be... More

You don't go to Koli for staying in this hotel. You go for the view, the Finnish national view of the lake, but what comes to accommondation, this is the only choice close by. One thing I will remember this hotel for is that there was no air-condition in the room and it was during the hottest days of Finnish... More

This hotel has a lovely location with a fantastic view over the lakes but the service is so poor that you´d rather stay outside camping. At 7 pm the reception was closed and it was really hard to get any service. The reactions of the personnel made us feel very uncomfortable and we felt like we were disturbing them. We... More

The hotel is situated on the top of the Koli hill. If the room has views to the Pielinen lake, you will have great views. The restaurant is OK, I suggest to order "Pielinen muikku", other fish options were not that good. The hotel has nice sauna for men and women and at least women's section has also jacuzzi. While...

Hotel is located at the edge of Koli national park. There is walking paths leading to park and even you are not experienced backpacker it is a good idea to go there since there is also short and easy tracks available. Wievs from the path and park itself is absolutely stunning. Hotel itself is wery modern, clean and confortable. This... More

We booked a junior-suite room which was including a view to the lake Pielinen. And the view really was worth paying a little extra. Check out the picture taken from our rooms window. We spend new year here celebrating with Russian guests that this place was full of. Despite they having fun the place still was a quiet little hotel... More

The Sokos Koli hotel is a modern block, perched in a splendid situation overlooking Lake Pielinen. As such, it is controversial, because Koli is the highest spot in southern Finland, is ecologically fragile, has fabulous views and was a landscape which inspired Sibelius and others. The hotel could easily be a blot on the landscape - and it is indeed... More
