HyvÀt ulkoilumahdollisuudet ja hienot maisemat. Hotellissa rauhaisa tunnelma, ja perusasiat kunnossa. Ravintolan aamupala hyvÀ, ja iltaruokailukin oli positiivinen yllÀtys.

Olimme sotahistoriamatkalla ja yövyimme hotelli Kalevalassa. Söimme illallisen ja ruoka oli erinomaista.
Paikka oli hyvin rauhallinen ja maisemat ympÀrillÀ upeita.
Voin suositella.

Hotelli itsessÀÀn oli viihtyisÀ. YöllÀ huoneessa oli kuitenkin aivan ÀlyttömÀn kuuma (huoneessa olevan mittarin mukaan 26 astetta), vaikka ulkona oli viileÀÀ. Ilmanvaihto vaikutti olevan pois pÀÀltÀ (ei kuulunut huminaa venttiileistÀ ennen kuin vasta seuraavana aamuna), ja paikalla ei ollut henkilökuntaa, jolle ilmoittaa asiasta. Hieman helpotti, kun irrotti tuuletusikkunasta hyttysverkon, jotta ilma pÀÀsi vaihtumaan.
Aamiainen oli laadukas. HÀiritsi, ettÀ henkilökunnalla tuntui olevan jotakin krÀnÀÀ ja jotkut istuivat yksinÀÀn omissa pöydissÀÀn salin toisella puolella.

Kalevala-hotelli on helmi Suomen hotellien joukoss
Patjat alkoivat olla loppuun nukuttuja, varsinkin toinen sÀnky oli istuttu reunaltaan niin luiskaksi, ettÀ patja pyrki valumaan pois sÀngystÀ.
Wi-Fi toimi hyvin huonosti.
Suhtautuminen koiraan oli kiitettÀvÀÀ.
Se, ettÀ huoneesta oli pelkkÀ ovi naapurihuoneeseen, orjuutti koiranomistaajaa: hÀiritseekö koiran haukkuminen naapurihuoneen asukasta.
Aamiainen oli hyvÀ, samoin ala carte-annokset, jotka söimme.
Sauna oli hyvÀ.
YmpÀristö oli kuin suoraan satukirjasta.

Luontoa ja rauhaa
Vietimme kaksi yötÀ hotellissa, viihdyimme oikein hyvin ja paikassa oli tÀllÀ kertaa rauhallista. Saunassa ja ulkoporeammeessa tuli kÀytyÀ molempina iltoina ja Talvisotamuseo joka sijaitsee aivan naapurissa on suosituksen arvoinen.
Hotellilla on oma ranta josta pÀÀsee hyvin uimaan, ranta on loivahko ja rappuset takaisin saunalle/altaille. Aamiaisvalikoima ei ollut valtava mutta tÀysin riittÀvÀ ja laadukas, vÀhemmÀn on joskus enemmÀn.
Emme itse nyt kÀyttÀneet mutta kuulimme muilta vierailta ettÀ hotellin kautta voi varata aktiviteetteja mm. karhujen spottausta jne.

Nice and cozy spa hotel with excellent staff
This is a nice and cozy hotel by the lake in beautiful surroundings. The staff was excellent and very helpful in getting the best possible experience in Kuhmo and the area around it. Breakfast was good with home-baked bread. The hotel has a nice spa and sauna area, with an outdoor jacuzzi by the lake. It is very good value for the money.
