The hotel was unique and the atmosphere was welcoming, and the rooms were modern, clean, and well-designed. Our stay included breakfast and the hotel offers plenty of variety of options . The staff was friendly and helpful. We also had the chance to relax and enjoy the SPA with additional charge.

Nice hotel, little bit off the town. Room was nice though understandably quite little due previous use. Slept well, breakfast was just like on any other hotel, except no cappuccino. Strong recommendation for nearby Restaurant Kakolanruusu rather than hotel restaurant! ##### Tomi Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pasi Jul 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent hotel in Turku Hotel Kakola is wonderful and unique. Previous prison has been renovated with good taste and quality. The prison theme has been used in good manner in decoration. Room was like new and clean. Bed was excellent. Room was silent and even the A/C was very quiet but worked perfectly. The only thing which could be better is parking hall where the slots are rather narrow for modern cars. ##### Pasi Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Mark Jul 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities What a unique place to stay! A boutique hotel built in the former County Prison atop the highest hill in Turku. It's such an interesting place. I should say first that I only awarded four stars because I happened to have a very small -- though nicely appointed and functional -- room. I'm sure I would have given the fifth star if a larger room had been available for me. (I should say that my bathroom was surprisingly large for a small room). The hilltop is so interesting. The best place to watch an 11 p.m. sunset in Turku in June. A short distance from the hotel is an even more imposing former prison -- now condos, restaurants, and a bar. It was an amazing area to explore, and although a little bit outside the center of town, the hilltop is actually closer to the castle, maritime museum, ferries, and riverwalk than places more central, all accessible via a fun, free funicular if you choose not to walk down the hill. Highly recommended. ##### Mark Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### GLEN Aug 19, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great hotel, clean, comfortable, great story! ##### GLEN Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wade Aug 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very helpful and friendly staff.

Spa was a little further than expected, esp when it was icy and raining. ##### Yasi Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne Feb 23, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is an incredibly nice hotel. The staff were kind and helpful, the room is very comfortable and clean, the food was good, and you get a discounted rate at a lovely spa a short walk away. My only complaint is that, as an American who lives in a country with a prison industrial system, I was hoping this prison-turned-hotel would be focused more on "Isn't it wonderful our crime rate is so low in Finland that we close prisons rather than open more? Look how we reused the space to provide a comfortable space for travelers to sleep and a nice cafe where people can enjoy meals together". The decor is lots of barbed wire and handcuffs attached to furniture and a giant mural of the prisoners in the restaurant. They make it nearly impossible to not think about the people who were once held there. I wish, much like the way a lot of old churches have been turned into secular community spaces, that this old prison felt more interested in a brighter future rather than clinging to a dark past. ##### Anne Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Isaac Apr 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent and unique ##### Isaac Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kenneth Nov 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities . ##### Kenneth Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Jouko Nov 3, 2025 Ok ##### Jouko Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Henk Feb 23, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Schone kamer, mooi hotel, aardig personeel ##### Henk Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Toni Dec 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Kaikki vaikutti hyvältä 😊 ##### Toni Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jarmo Dec 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Sänkyt hyvät ja muutenkin mahtava paikka. ##### Jarmo Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Tiina Dec 19, 2025 Väldigt mysigt hotell! Riktigt smakfull juldekoration överallt. God middag på restaurangen fast maten var inte riktigt varmt när den serverades. Trycket i rummets dusch var dålig vilket jag påtalade vid utchekningen. ##### Tiina Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pia Dec 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Oli siisti. ##### Pia Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tiina Dec 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Aamiainen oli erinomainen, huoneessa oli jopa kylmä kun mentiin sinne.
