We were here two nights at kotahotelli suite. The room was absolutely fantastic with panorama roof window (you can see stars in clear evening) and fireplace. Its really weird that all pictures that are in hotel’s descriptions are real and all wooden details are exactly like they are in the actual place. This is super nice thing! We had the evening dinner which was superb even it was brought as a takeaway to hotel room’s door. Breakfasts were also really good and eating in the room worked perfectly. There are also a lot of activities to do at winter: e.g. e-fatbiking, nordic skating, skiing and relaxing at spa. Btw fatbikes are available only one size, so for the bigger person they might be slightly small. The spa was really nice with all the visual details. Only the really warm pool was missing totally. One really big minus thing happened when we were ordering food from hotel’s bistro. The whole process was carastrophic. You could order the food from reception, but nobody informs when your food is ready for take away. So thanks for this hazzling process we got a semi cold pizza.

The whole area has stunning views of Saimaa nature. The spa has excellent selection of different sauna experiences. 2-person suites up the slope are especially nice.
We stayed in one of the scenery suites and everything was just perfect. Every little detail here is in sync with the nature theme. This resort is beautiful, cozy and romantic. It has a lovely spa, excellent restaurant and very warm and welcoming staff. There are also lots of outdoor activities available. Very highly recommend this resort!
Perfect facilities, but the service was awful and very rushing everywhere. One of the curtains was broken, yet didn't get anything else than "we will look into it". No one responding to the phone, so they don't have to deal with the complaints. Facilities 5*, but the service was worse than in a 2 star hotel.
Visited the spa (30 per person). Nice place, they have heavily invested in the decor and atmosphere. It works out well, as the place has an enjoyable nature theme. The place first looks a bit small, but there are actually quite many things to discover. The different saunas and shower experience are interesting and highly enjoyable. The included fruits and snacks are also appetising, and the time limit of two hours is just exactly enough to see and enjoy the place.
There are so few high end efforts in Finland that Jarvisydan gets away with too many flaws. Style is a matter of taste, rustic and kitschy come to mind, let's say best taken with some sense of humor. Rooms are spacious and well appointed. To my surprise I was given the worst in the property, 107, even when booking direct. Beware and decline if offered, you'll be woken up by service trucks loading right on the other side of the wall from 6AM onwards. Stranger still was the set dinner, a disaster beyond matter of taste, a through cooked tangy piece of meat, returned to the kitchen. No other response but the full and hefty bill. Since buffet at lunch is pretty good, the kitchen is not without competence, don't repeat my mistake, go for dinner buffet if on offer. Activities are run by fine lady Pirjo, where the best dedication resides.
Unique hotel and spa in a very remote area. Friendly staff makes one feel welcome. Worth the trip even from far away.
Amazing spa resort with a unique atmosphere! The buildings and rooms are beautiful with every detail carefully crafted, the staff is friendly and very helpful, the surrounding nature is very beautiful with the lake, forest and cliffs with a lot potential for adventures. You can just dwell in the cosy atmosphere, eat delicious food at the restaurants and enjoy the warm pools, welcoming saunas and cold drinks & snacks at the spa.
