Scandic Plaza is a typical Scandic hotel. It doesn't offer luxury at all but it doesn't have to. This easy and smart priced Scandinavian chain hotel is suitable for both business and leisure travel and a good choice for those who don't want to pay for a quirky design. When staying in Scandic you always know what you get -... More

I have spent 2 nights at this hotel for a business trip. The room I had on the 4th floor was single room and a bit small. The maintenance status was ok, and the bathroom was also acceptable and clean. Personnel friendly but a bit slow check out due to one employee only during peak hour duty. Also the personnel... More

The hotel was arranged by our partners in Finland, but location was excellent in central Turku, easy walking distance to all the restaurants in the city, and the car park was right beside the hotel. Nice clean rooms with lots of space and a good comfy, warm bed.

Friendly staff, smallish basic rooms. Hotel is in the very centre of Turku, close to everything. Clean and comfortable. Very good breakfast, like all Scandics. But for a glass of wine in the evening, instead of the lobby bar, I suggest choosing for instance wine bar Viinille just around the corner :) Hotel is good value for money.

Very nice and extremely clean hotel. The location is absolutely perfect, in the very center of Turku. The hotel also offers free parking space for it's clients and lets you keep your car there for a day even after checking out. The beds were very comfortable, extra points for ironing board in the room. The rooms were quiet and we... More

This Scandic lived up to the usual standards of previous hotels. Provided you don't expect lap of luxury you won't be disappointed, these are great chain of business hotels which so far have always been dependable and in this case the location was great. I didn't try the restaurant as prices were ridiculous even by Finnish standards but the breakfast... More

Me and my 3 friends had a family room with really good value for money. There was nothing exceptional either in negative or positive terms. If I would need to pick up one of each, I'd say that sauna department was too small as a negative comment and that the location of the hotel have just perfect location to explore... More

The Scandic chain mainly focuses on providing a boring but adequate service. Unfortunately Scandic Hotel Plaza Turku failed even to reach this level. The room was big and clean. But the bathroom smelled of mould. Breakfast was not good (bad bread, bad coffee). Best thing? Free wifi. As I was there for a short business trip these problems are all... More

We stayed here for a few nights after having spent some time at another Scandic Hotel in Helsinki. While this hotel was clean, and had all the basics you needed, it wasn't quite as great as the previous one (or another one we stayed in later). It probably needs some modernisation more than anything else. The location though was pretty... More

Not as nice as the Scandic in Helsinki. The bathroom was smelly.... I don't know why. We had a kettle sent to our room when we requested it. The rooms as are a little rundown and quite small. Staff were very nice and breakfast very good. Very convenient for shopping and train station, near attractions Turku is not as nice... More
