Great hotel, next door to the exhibition centre, train station less than 5mins away with line servicing the center (1 stop away) and the airport ( direct , about 30mins journey costing 4.80 euros single way). Staff very friendly, room was clean and nicely layered. Restaurant and bar food very good.

Not a good first impression, but got better

Arriving to the hotel was not so friendly, slow action and almost unfriendly in the reception. I felt I was there for the official and not the opposite. But the room, the breakfast and other things worked well.

Ympäristöystävällisyyttä lisäisi nestesaippua palasaippuan sijaan. Palasaippuasta jää aina jäljelle iso osa, eikä sitä toivottavasti kierrätetä enää uudelleen seuraavalle asiakkaalle.

Had to stay there because of exhibition

Clean hotel in a conviently located next to the exhibition halls. Breakfast nothing special, restaurants not very good both food and service wise, reception service unfriendly and I experienced even some unacceptable mistakes.

Recommendation to Holiday Inn

Room was nice, clean, and spacious. Bed comfy (even softer vs firmer pillows to choose from). There were table and chair for working, which was good. And as a cherry on the top; even a little couch for just chilling. Thank you, it was a very comfortable stay.
