Disadvantages of the hotel 1. Extremely difficult to get to. From Helsinki by train - 6 hours. From Kouvola - 5.5 hours. The train schedule from Kouvola does not coincide with the arrival of the Lev Tolstoy train from Moscow, so passengers have to wait 4.5 hours in Kouvola. Upon arrival, you have to take a taxi from the railway station, because. The bus schedule to the hotel does not match the train schedule.
2. There is no developed infrastructure in Vuokatti - there is no supermarket and currency exchange, so you need to bring a supply of food with you for the first time.
3. Sokos Vuokatti has 2 restaurants: Amarillo and Kippo. The first of them, quite expensive, but does not offer traditional Finnish dishes, the menu has only one hot fish dish, and the second one opens only at 17 o'clock, does not work on Mondays. There is a fairly wide selection of Finnish dishes, but the prices are clearly too high - the average bill is 40-50 euros, with very small portions. Therefore, I recommend solving the issue of food for lunch and dinner in some other way.
4. In standard rooms there is a ban on the use of their own drinks and products. Guests of this category of rooms should buy bottled water, coffee and tea at the reception. There, the price of one bottle of water 0.5 liters without gas is 2 euros.
5. Alcohol is not sold in Vuokatti. It can only be bought at the restaurant. Or in the room in the mini - bar for an additional fee in a container of 40 milliliters.
