"I was met by the owner Passi who was waiting for me. I had booked into one of the apartments but wes told that I was staying in one of the cottages by the lake. Passi took me to the cottage which has its own wood burning sauna and stunning views looking out to Lake Orivesi. It was really peaceful and it has its own private beach and a rowing boat plus a swing which I must admit I spent quite a bit of time on there. The centre of Kitee is about 20 minutes away in a car so if like me you do not...

"Keittiön varustelu oli hyvä, huoneisto oli kohtuu siisti, puutteita siellä täällä (esim. vessan lattialla kivi). Asunto itsessään sopiva, sijainti ok. Sivustolta löytyvät osoite vei väärään paikkaan, avaimet sai eri paikasta ja asunto oli muutaman korttelin päässä tästä. Kohtuu rauhallinen alue, mutta kovaäänisimmät ajoneuvot kuuluivat sisälle. Ekan kerroksen asunto kadulle päin."

Break Sokos Hotel Koli Kylä

10/10 Excellent
"Our room was very comfortable and light. The helpful reception staff allowed us to check in an hour or two early, which we appreciated. We had a nice dinner in the on-site restaurant, and enjoyed the buffet breakfast as well. Koli is a lovely spot, highly recommended, and you couldn't do much better than staying at the Koli Kyla hotel for your visit."
