Finding a hotel near Tampere when you need one

Tampere, Finland is a sought after vacation city. When hotels in Tampere city are booked, stay at Hotel Waltikka which is a 35 minutes drive from Tampere city center. Waltikka is 20 minutes drive from the Ideapark shopping center

Hotel Waltikka from the sky


Waltikka hotel is ideal for:

  • Groups of travelers
  • Large business meetings
  • Music bands
  • Local business--Finnish customers across Finland frequent the hotel.

We paid 75 Euros, for a double bed. Very reasonable. There are large rooms available for families. Go on a weekend or during the summer and you will get a family discount. Ask for company deals--Hotel Waltikka is willing to give discounted rates for large groups of over 15 persons. In summer the second night is cheaper.

Hotel Waltikka hallways are long

Inside the Hotel....

On a Friday night we ordered a warm chicken salad. At this largest hotel near Tampere, half hours drive from Tampere center. The dining atmosphere is amazingly quiet and peaceful, with a wide choice of foods on the menu.

You will see:

  • solid wooden floors
  • spacious rooms
  • long hallways
  • large size meeting rooms
  • Free wireless inter net available throughout the hotel

Long hallways on each floor, help keep noise levels at a minimum


We slept like babies on this bed

A good night's sleep on this queen size bed. And virtually noise free during the night





Showers and bathrooms are large and clean. Water pressure coming from the shower head is strong making shower taking a joy.

Hotel Waltikka bathroom shower door entry trim-nice design


Take notice of the "Finnish door trim" look.--High quality Finnish built constructions.


Use the mini bar for snacking, instead of eating small meals at the restaurant--It may be cheaper.

If you are traveling with a family and want an evening snack. Check the mini bar prices before eating smaller meals at the hotel, the mini bar may be more economical.


A typical breakfast--Lot's of variety to choose from

A yummie breakfast with fruits, vegetables,fresh juices, cereals, porridge, fresh whole wheat, rye breads, and lots more.


Hotel Waltikka breakfast--If you arrive for breakfast a bit late, they still keep the food on the table

We got to enjoy our coffee. A relaxing breakfast. If you arrive at breakfast late! No worries! We discovered, they keep the food on the tables, No big rush to eat breakfast in one gulp.







Plenty of room for meeting/conferencing joy.



Large Conference Room

Fit up to 180 people in a large; or 6 smaller conference rooms. Theres a wall/data projector, dvd players, overhead projectors and white boards for your conferencing needs.
