What a surprise finding a hotel in a former cavalry barracks! The hotel and surrounding area was steeped with history and you almost felt the horses and cavalrymen coming round the corner. The room had been used by four soldiers so it was fairly large and recently renovated. Clean, stylish, modern. Breakfast was self-service with more than enough choices and food. The story of hotel's past was told with large photos on the walls - great touch. Also - free charging of electrical vehicles.

The location was excellent......right beside the lake and harbour, and within easy walking distance of the town centre, fortress and swimming area. The hotel is a beautiful old and very quaint building. The room was really nice and bright, but not very big. The bed was extremely comfortable and the bathroom was lovely and well equipped. The breakfast was excellent.

A comfortable, well-equipped cottage, close to nature with a view of the lake. Access to a sauna and the opportunity to cool off in the lake. Helpful staff. Possibility to rent water sports equipment on-site, and pets are welcome. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back one day.

I have been visiting Joensuu since 2012. In the winter season, the city looks very beautiful as it gets covered with a fantastic blanket of snow. The sight of the frozen river is just stunning! I love the city for its cozy and peaceful atmosphere and the kindness of the locals.

The resort is well signposted and easily accessible from the main road. The shop and restaurant were good. A buffet breakfast was tasty and plentiful. The dinner menu was also good value for money. Beautiful location and plenty of walks/cycling ways from the front door. In the Summer months, there is big play park for children, with water slides, climbing frames, etc., in the adjacent holiday resort. This is one of the most beautiful areas of Finland.

Nice little corner of the lakeland area. Great for nature walks and water activities. The whole area felt very peaceful and I hope we can come back another time. On the Saimaa geopark website you can find some nice walks and things to do in the area but if you like forests and lakes and quiet surroundings you’ll be good here no matter where you go.

A small town in East Finland that has some good restaurants and local coffee shops but there is not much to do. The town is not touristic and there are not that many places to visit. However, the Botanical gardens are interesting and the Joensuu church is also worth visiting.
