Forenom Aparthotel Tampere

The last time the ventilation in the bathroom was cleaned was like 5 years ago the amount of dust that was dangling from it was pretty disgusting. Otherwise pretty pleasant stay, the location is good.

Location was really good, but the room was very warm and the window did not open enough to cool it down at all. Also, the number pads that you use to access the room and floor were dirty and sticky which should be a no-no at a time like this and made me question the general level of cleanliness. I did not receive the key code to my phone. It had gone some random number even though my account info specified the correct number. Customer service, however, was awesome and super quick to reach.

Location is central, right on the main street. Unlike some other properties by this chain, in this one you can open a small window in the room, which I find a major plus though there is still some kind of ventilaton constantly pushing air into the room (no a/c). The building is rather old, when you get into the lift it's just unpleasant so you will try not to touch anything. The room itself is fairly clean, with some kitchen utensils but no kitchen - you wash things in the bathroom. Bathroom small and functional, with rather old look (and plastic wash basin - like an old Ibis budget, just for a double price). All in all, very basic, aging property, at central location, at price well above what it's worth but quite a bit less than ridiculous accommodation prices in Finland.

Basic room with good location in the middle of the city. Good value for money.

We enjoyed a three night stay in a studio apartment. It was spacious and well equipped. We had a large balcony with a beautiful view. We loved the central location and were able to walk everywhere in Central Tampere including the Moomin museum - highly recommend.

Nice room, clean with basic utensils and water boiler, microwave, and toaster.

Easy check-in with key code. Clean room. Water boiler in addition to coffee maker, toaster, microwave, and utensils.

This hotel is a decent efficient hotel, located on the quiet side of the main street of Tampere. I received my personal code via email and not text message, which I was expecting, so, I wasted 30 minutes. You must have phone service in Finland, which can be a problem for those foreigners used to use just wifi while traveling. The layout of the room was weird, two beds separated by a big shelve, preventing me from having eye contact with my wife. There was major construction work on the street, which was very annoying. In recap, it was a good stay for the money.

The apartment is very convenient as it is near the centre of Tampere. It wasn't that expensive compared to other hotels. Getting the access code half an hour earlier was a great plus. I got good service when requesting an early checking over e-mail. The hotel is a bit dated - the lifts and doors in corridors seem old as does some of the equipment inside of the room, especially the bathroom which is very tiny. It's handy to have a kettle and also complimentary tea so that was appreciated. The fridge (at least I think it was the fridge) kept making a weird sound (like when you put the kettle on) which was quite uncomfortable so the equipment should be checked and replaced. Overall, the location was great, the access using a code was very convenient, it wasn't terribly expensive but wasn't the most comfortable. All in all, an enjoyable experience.

Great location on the main street in Tampere. Rooms could do with a A/C unit that you can adjust.
