Where to stay in Punkaharju

Cute, little and comfortable houses. Clean and accessible, shared kitchen, bathrooms and showers. Great sauna.

Opens at 8:30 and has a play area. A real lifesaver for the rainy days with a toddler

We have 4 beds camping summer house. Located just next to the lake. Beautiful. The house has two bunk beds. So it's really only for kids. Refrigerator, microwave and some cupboards in the house. The beds' size are smaller. One of the upstairs bed is much smaller. The house is clean. We rent the bedsheets and towels for €13 pp. There are some spots we can swim on the lake. A car can be parked easily...

Nice calm place, maybe more suitable for families with children

Beautiful and peaceful place during the lower season

Great camping with a view difficult to repeat

The setting was beautiful. From my balcony I looked over lawns and the lake. The grounds are large and have lake access, a pond, a sensory garden and a great little cafe serving waffles. They lead onto a trail which takes you to the lovely art centre and forest museum at Lusto. The layout of the interior shows clearly it was a former hospital, but it's given charm by the old photos, tiny lounges...

A nice experience and, above all, an elevating experience. Unique nature and an old sanatorium building, where guests were welcomed with a warm attitude even at midnight. Fresh strawberries with oatmeals.

The Best

Decent, clean hotel with mostly elderly guests but also sportspeople. Great location.

Yes, there is an authentic Mexican Cantina at Kruunupuisto!

A hotel for a stay in an iconic party of Finland. The place is also used for rehabilitation services too, however the staff seem to be exhausted when I visited there. The usual low service quality that makes Finns independent was worsened by a lack of managerial expertise of room booking, provision for food and accessibility. For example, the hotel had invested in putting maps of the hotel around the...

This was the scond time in the historic building of Villa Urhola. We really like the rooms that have the "villa feeling", high ceilings etc. This house is a completely different case than the main building of Kruunupuisto that is a huge rehab center. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the surroundings nice and one can swim in the lake both on the beach and at the nearby ferry pier. ...

Nature there is beautiful, and I got good food - but the place does not suit a wheelchair user. Friendly staff.

Nice and cozy place! Good breakfast!

A wonderful and adorable place to stay over. The rooms are cosy and the service is warm and kind. The food offered is also delicious and home made.

Idyllic setting for this lodge. Beautiful view of the lake from the cabin. Fabulous swimrun course to Petri island. Very hospitable host who brought us smoked fish and apples.

Awesome place! Lots of things to do (water sports and lake activities). The host family are super nice and welcoming. Would definitely come again!

I went there today with my girlfriend after searching for a place to ride horses for many months now. First impressions were great! I called and they spoke great English and did not have any problems communicating. Over the phone, the attitude was great and felt like I was welcomed. When we arrived the next day for the ride, the horses were already outside being groomed and prepared and had a very...

Wonderful lake. Excellent hosting. Good fishing.

Isäntä on erittäin sympaattinen herrasmies. Aamupala hyvä. Majoitus on siisti ja hyvä vastine huokealle hinnalle.

The most adorable host ever. Such a gentleman! He gave great tips about near by places.

Loistavasti remontoitu ja siisti. Sijainti loistava.

I really like the place. Quiet, remote but not too far or difficult to get.

Good value for money Its not far to drive to Olavinlinna and there is even a train If we travel here again we would book here again

Really great summer and winter place. We visited here for a day last summer (2021) and decided to spend our winter holiday (2022) here. Loads of winter activities, great cottages and service.

A beautifully located restaurant, great for lunch and dinner and easy to get some necessary groceries. Their staff is friendly and speak English.

Lovely lunch restaurant with very friendly service.

excellent food for “lounas” price. Loved the lasagna, though chili con carne was very good as well; koti kalja was also very good

Amaizing

Great hote. 1st hotel in finland! Beautiful setting

Beautiful restaurant and terrace looking out over the lake

Such an lovely establishment with a great restaurant ♥️

Really good experience: they have put some effort there so that place itself is a quality place. Lunch was almost perfect and service is worth of mention. Times are hard so all the best for owner.

Great value 3 course lunch with top quality ingredients. Lovely surroundings and super service.

Perfect and beautiful location for escape. Spent one night, had all the premises for ourselves, and shared nice conversation with kitchen lady in the morning (the breakfast was awesome!)

Beautiful place. Cozy apartments.

Very nice and charming setting (but the sunny weather helped!). Camping services a bit limited (two toilets and one shower only, not nice kitchen). But pleasant stay

Absolutely gorgeous surroundings and lovely accommodations. The staff are friendly and the food is yummy! I definitely want to go back.
