Not a fancy hotel but a decent basic hotel room. I have stayed here several times, and the hotel staff are friendly and helpful (typical of FInnish). The rooms are small but clean. Breakfast is quite good. Takes two elevators to reach some of the rooms as the hotel has spread out over the years to include several buildings. Beds... More

I spend a night in this hotel during a business trip, and I can recommend it for everyone. The staff is nice and helpful, the rooms are spacious and clean and it is located in the city centre. There is a bus station next to the hotel. The breakfast was excellent, with many choices. You can also dine on the... More

Location is very good. Standart rooms are pretty small and old, but clean. Superior rooms are bigger, newer and in every way a little better. Staff is very friendly and helpful. There are two good restaurants, which certainly everyone will find something to eat. More

Stayed at the hotel for one night and that was more than enough. The single room I got on the 5th floor was very small and warm. The bed was quite bad, felt like sleeping in a hammock. However, the breakfast buffet was quite good and service at the front desk swift and friendly. More

Stayed here for one night. The room was located on the street side so there was some noice in the middle of the night (weekend night) and it was also easy to get lost in the hotel because the rooms are located in the differet parts of the building. Otherwise it was a pleasant stay. The room was clean and... More

We asked local friend where to stay in Pori, they all said Sokos Hotel Vaakuna. We had no pre booking, but what I've heard there is only couple of weekends in year when hotels are all fully booked. Reception service was better than average, she also gave us tooth brush and things like that to survive in the morning. Hotel... More

This hotel is part of the Sokos Hotels chain, so you get what you expect but nothing more. Vaakuna is well located, right in the city centre and it is easy to get everywhere by walking. Rooms are quite spacious and clean. The breakfast buffet was a positice surprise, nice selection. To sum it up, a good, clean and centrally... More

Stayed at Sokos Hotel for two nights and was very pleased. Comfortable room, excellent selection at breakfast. Very nice in every respect. Front desk very helpful. This is a lovely "small" town of about 75,000. Doesn't look like would be the nicest hotel judging from the rather old look of the outside of the building....but don't be fooled...this is really...

Simple but clean rooms. Centrally located in Pori, near to restaurants and main station. Good breakfast buffet with a wide variety of food. According to the locals, the best hotel in town. Has a mexican style restaurant - bar. The bath room was small and already a bit old-fashioned, but also clean. Staff has been very friendly. More
