“Interesting well located hotel, rooms a little small”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

Stayed in a standard room on the 4th floor. Checkin was efficient and professional. Room was clean and view good (riverside, good vistas), if a little small for the price. Bathroom was modern and spotless. Location is good and central, with most interesting places walkable. Breakfast was good, served buffet style in the 'Italian' restaurant on the ground floor. Overall, would recommend this hotel, as long as you don't mind a smallish room for the 150 euro nightly rate.

Room Tip: get a riverside room if available.

“Good hotel experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2012

Also known as The Grand Hotel Tammer. Hotel is situated beside the river and park. Close to Tampere centre for shops and restaurants. Rooms small but adequate with modernised bathroom/toilets.
Did not eat in restaurant but breakfast is buffet style and very good

Room Tip: Basic rooms small so couples should book superior rooms for better comfort

“Excellent hotel, excellent situation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

The Grand Hotel Tammer situates in beautifully renovated building in the center of Tampere. The building was built in 1929 and it has been working as a hotel ever since. Standard rooms are quite small but well-appointed. If you want more space take a superior room, and enjoy its pleasures like we did! The athmosphere of the hotel is warm, welcoming and friendly. The Breakfast is great. Hotel Tammer situates by the beautiful torrent of Tammerkoski and near the old factories where nowadays situates variety of cultural institutions like museums and theatres. We keep on choosing this hotel because it is excellent in many ways! We warmly recommend this hotel to you!

“Renovated hotel in the historical building”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

This hotel is also called Grand Hotel Tammer. The hotel was renovated in 2009. So toilets and showers are very good now. However, air-conditioning didn't work very well and rooms were hot when the outside temperature was +29 degrees Celsius. The building is historical (built in 1929) and very beautiful. The location is very good in the city centre of Tampere. That's why there is also a little bit traffic noise in rooms. The breakfast was very good, also local specialities, e.g. black sausage.

“Poor Service”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2011

I forgot my glasses after dinner in the Trattoria restaurant.
- on the same evening nobody could help me
- on the next morning the same
- after returning home the day after I dropped an email and I was adivised to contact a lost & found agency. The only contact was a phone number, which didn't work.
- I've contacted the hotel again and asked for an email adress or fax number, but got no answer.
- I've sended a reminder - no answer.
- I've tried to contact the hotel via the internet request form - no answer.

Very dissapointing
