Reviews
It was built in the 1830s, as I recall. It is very pretty. Huge garden. Beautiful stained glass windows. An interesting walking path or two. We had a large balcony that was very nice. We were there on night so we did not get to take advantage of everything. I would recommend at least two nights if you want to take advantage of everything available.
It’s a must stay if you are in the region. Magical garden, spacious room, wellness section with real Finnish saunas! Also worth mentioning the food, which is absolutely amazing. Staff friendly & proficient in English.
