Top Etelainen District Hotel Reviews

Hotel Arthur

10/10 Excellent

"No kettle/fridge/microwave, not like in Canada’s hotels. Room was clean, beds are extremely comfortable, nice and quiet place without noses from outside when window was open. Staff is great, very good breakfast which exceeded our expectations."
