Hotelli Merikotka

Kotka

Perfect location, unless you want to stay right in the center of Kotka.
Five minutes walk there, another five to Wellamo exhibition centre.

12 rooms, we had a standard one for two, sort of took us back a couple of decades, but in a good way. No complaints.

The pub downstairs is nice (it's the reception as well), they have a good selection of local beers. Would go again. 

Sweet little hotel

Was it the luck I had a pretty clean, neat and cosy double room, or was it the warmth and unostentatious care of the staff that made my stay in Merikotka warm and convenient in that "Finnishly" cold beginning of May. Neither I expected much nor I missed a thing in the hotel: all was in, all was comfortable, cosy and clean. Good and clean bathroom, shampoo and shower gel available on the house; magically soothing  and ergonomic bed with the pillow that must have been charmed to bring you to sleep immediately you put your head on it :)... The breakfasts were simple and tasty, the guests could use the microwave, toaster, kettle and dishes at their convenience; the room was cleaned daily. The young couple who ruled the hotel helped a lot at unexpectedly speedy change of my trip plans: I had full money back for one night off the hotel, was given plenty of time to wait inside for my bus after the check - out time had expiried, and they printed my flight tickets. The bar downstairs was fine and the "sea view" to the harbour was sooo calming :). The convenient paths to the town center to be mentioned and nice promenades across the harbour were so thought  - conditioning too.

Neat place for a modest budget

Location is ideal, just next to city center and free parking on the street. The room for two was spacious and clean, but somewhat outdated. The building and neighbourhood is perhaps the pretties in Kotka. The breakfast was very very basic, nothing wrong, but I would recommend to skip it and search a nice cafe from the city instead. 

So very basic

Came here because the Sokos was full.  The room was clean but pretty basic and the beds not so comfortable.  Breakfast at €10 was pretty sparse and I would not bother to be honest.  Location was okay, about 5 min walk to the mall and supermarket.  But would choose the Sokos any day.

Clean but cramped

The pictures from the website give feel of light and neatness. In reality there is less of both. The foreign colleague I booked to this hotel claimed there was mold in the bathroom. I was ashamed. It is a pity, because the hotel has potential, for example it is very well situated. They should call help from Gordon or Sukula!

Disappointed

The room reminded me of a lost, prominent hospital room (especially the smell). It seemed like everything was needed, you could stay overnight 1-2 times, but it wasn't very nice. The refrigerator, the TV, the batteries and the shower were in working condition. The beds were new, comfortable. The underwear was clean. The clothes were warm. The view was beautiful from the window. The gel and shampoo were standing, but there was no soap in our room (neighbors were divided), so the lack of foam was already calmly perceived. Somewhere in the bathroom, the bathroom, the bathroom was greeted by a buzzard with vegetables. We were at the bathroom, and the bathroom was in good condition.

You have to understand that the purpose of the trip is not a hotel.

Merikotka is situated in a beautiful, old building. Location is nice, next to the harbor but a short walk to the town center. 
Reception in the afternoon was in the downstairs pub and staff there was nice. A single room was... well, single room from the 90's. Bearable for one night, but nothing special to mention of. No wi-fi in the rooms, also the Sonera network had only 2G... so no netsurfing.
At breakfast were only cold cutlets, bread, boiled eggs and cereal. Very basic.
If you need only to sleep and don't expect anything fancy, this might be a good place for you.
Free parking on the street.

An average guesthouse in a beautiful buolding

A cozy hotel for the economy. The hotel is located not far from the center. It looks like a residential house. The rooms are dark, the furniture is not the very first freshness, but what do we want for the corresponding price?!?!

A cozy hotel for the economy.

Of course, this is not a hotel, but a guest house. Since there is only one hotel in the centre of Socos and the rest outside the city, it is quite possible to stay here. It is a few minutes from the centre and close to the sea centre of Catka - Maritime Centre Vellamo. It is very ascetic, but you have to understand that it is not a hotel. Breakfast is modest, but quite sufficient. A good view from the rooms at the port of Catka. Parking near the hotel. Below there is a small bar with street tables. In short, if you do not have any unnecessary hassle, it will be perfect for one night.

Gasthaus near the port of Catka

It's in an old housing fund, close to the center, acceptable as a transit overnight for one night, no more. Outside the house is nothing, inside everything is pretty sad. The furniture is old, all gray and not very fresh. Breakfast is just for laughing. Don't wait much, it's not like a hotel, but you can stay there, and in Catka especially with the choice of hotels you won't get away with it.
