Scandic Seinäjoki

“Modest accommodation at an affordable price.”

I have stayed here several times on business trips, and for that purpose the hotel works well. However, I wouldn't choose to stay here for a leisure trip.

I have stayed here several times on business trips, and for that purpose the hotel works well. However, I wouldn't choose to stay here for a leisure trip. The common areas are clean and well maintained. The staff are friendly, and I think the breakfast is very good. The rooms, however, are in need of renovation. They have the look and feel of the 1990s, with cherry wood finishes throughout. The room rates are always very reasonable, which partly makes up for that.

“Okay for short stay but skip the breakfast”

The hotel is rather small and located at the centre of Seinäjoki. It has free parking right behind the hotel with plenty of space (at least in mid August when we were there).

The hotel is rather small and located at the centre of Seinäjoki. It has free parking right behind the hotel with plenty of space (at least in mid August when we were there). It is okay for a short stay but I for longer stays I would choose somewhere else. The hotel seems to be geared towards conference visitors and has a number of lecture auditoriums and meeting rooms. Thats where they probably make their money, and conference visitors don’t demand any luxuries from their accommodation either. There are no luxuries at this hotel. I had booked a standard room and seemed to have received a superior one, as we had both a kettle and bathrobes. In all Finnish Scandic hotels where I have visited, that is the only difference between a standard and superior room (apart from the price of course). The rooms are otherwise VERY basic, although clean and relatively comfortable and quiet. This hotel has no safe in the room. The breakfast was not great. When we arrived at 8am, every single table was full of dirty dishes, whoch was a surprise as there were only a few other guests having breakfast at that time. We cleared a table for purselves and after ca 15 minutes the staff got srated at the same. Several items in the breakfast buffet had run out and it took a (long) while for the staff to replace the empty serving dishes with new ones. As Scandic has recently started to charge extra for their breakfast, I woild certainly not want to pay extra for this particular experience.
