Hotel Kumpeli Spa

Very beautiful location next to the lake with great views both from the room & balcony, restaurant, terrace and spa. Spa was nice with many saunas and jacuzzis.

Room was cozy with own balcony but there was a slight smell I didn't like (e.g. from smoking long time ago)

The Kumpeli Spa is set in a beautiful location right next to a lake. To get there without a car is a bit of a scramble - it took a train from Helsinki to Lahti, then a bus to Heinola. Finally, about a .8 mile walk from the bus stop. It has many facilities for luxuriating. The breakfast was very good and dinner was also quite delicious (this is not included in the price). My room was on the first floor and had a door right out to the lake. The furniture and room used lots of wood and felt a little dated. The bathroom was good. Plenty of outlets and places to store clothes. There is a disc golf course right next door and a world class disc golf park (Kippis) about 2 miles away (taxi or bus).

The room felt a little dark and dated, but with the curtains open and sunshine coming in, it felt quite comfortable.

This is a spa hotel. The rooms could do with a bot of refurbishment and I understand this is under way. The spa was excellent, with three different sorts of sauna (of course - Finland), a steam room, a swimming pool, 2 jacuzzis, a plunge pool and a pebble beed foot massager. There is also a reasonably well-equipped small gym. Restaurant food was good. Bar closes a bit early at 22:30 sharp

Only the decor

Terrible petit déjeuner, peu d'options, le café finlandais classique était la seule option, deux options sans gluten, pas de jus de fruits, fruits ou autres, juste quelques morceaux de fromage, charcuterie, concombre pour se faire des tartines... et pas très bon. Décevant.

Il y a des travaux, ce qui est une bonne chose vu l'état du bâtiment, mais une mauvaise chose à 9h du matin dans la chambre d'à côté quand on dort et se réveille en sursaut à cause de coups au dessus de la tête. Un sauna était top, l'autre cassé (infrarouge) et un des deux jacuzzis fonctionne mieux : celui avec la plus jolie vue. C'est globalement très cher pour ce que c'est, pour le moment, en espérant que ça vaille le coup après les travaux (et si la serveuse du bar de la terrasse daignait être plus sympa avec les clients).
