Reviews for Hostel Hermanni
Review 1:It is a 30min walk from the train station on the other side of the city centre and there are no shops nearby (Nearest supermarket is about 10 mins walk and the city is about 15 mins walk). There were no reception staff on site, but you can call them on a free phone nearby.
Review 2:Our private room, the shared bathrooms and all other facilities were very clean, spacious and in good condition. The Wifi worked well once we sat in the dining room (our room was the furthest from the Wifi modem so the Wifi signal was poor in our room). It was walking distance to the city center (about 15 mins). Hostel Hermanni is in a very quiet family friendly location.
Review 3:The hostel was very clean and the staff were really friendly. I stayed in a dorm/shared room which was comfortable. very clean kitchen and bathrooms
Review 4:some russian guests decided to continue their party in the hostel lobby right outside my door. Luckily having the ear plugs with me allowed some sleep ...
Review 5:Clean large bathrooms. Friendly girl at reception.
Review 6:The long walk was hard (I arrived during a rain storm!), the limited staff time to ask questions (a rep is present only a few hrs per day), there are limited food options nearby.
Review 7:Nice rooms, not crowded when I was there, multiple kitchens, good wifi connection, quiet location.
Review 8:There were no turists in a hostel, but workers from Kuopio. It was really not a good vibe, people were not ever saying hello back, everyone minding their own busyness. It was very loud early in the mornings (between 6 and 7 am), when they were preparing to go to work. We did't spend much time in a "hostel" and when we did, the mood was sort of depressed. Wi-fi connection was bad, too.
Review 9:The receptionist was very kind, but always in a hurry. Toillets and rooms (kitchen excluded due to nasty individuals) were clean.
Review 10:No staff on duty. Had problems with the key (quickly solved after a phonecall however) No breakfast possibility..
Review 11:Very comfortable beds with nice colourful linen. Spacious and clean bathrooms, as the hostel didn't seem to be very full there were fairly enough of them. Good coffee available for only 50ct. Good quiet location.
Review 12:wanted to pay cash, but hostel staff charged money from my account and notified me upon arrival

Review 18:Just for me, perfect location, clean and quiet,
Review 19:Slightly far from any convenient shops.
Review 20:Clean and tidy
Review 21:We travel with 2 dogs. We payed for dogs 10 euro. It is very nice place to go for a walk with dogs, near lake. We has great opportunity to cook in hostel.
Review 22:I had a bot of bad luck: the second night of my stay was horribly NOISY. (There were some young travellers partying at the hostel)... So be prepared that anything can happen during the night since apparently there were no staff-member -presence around (unless they were partying too)
Review 23:Hostel was very clean and all the facilitites (kitchen, toilet, shower) were decent.
Review 24:No staff in the hostel at any time. Not enough kitchen equipment (biggerpots are missing) Bathrooms were not clean and partly rusty.
Review 25:Our room was very nice.
Review 26:We didn't liked the atmosphere at the hostel, there were a lot ofstudents (we guess), all were treating us as strangers that are notwelcome. Nearly nobody said hello (even if we saluted) or spoke with us.Not a warm place to stay.
Review 27:The rooms were nice & we loved the colourful bedlines Kitchenfacilities Computer to use
Review 28:Between the two kitchens though there was still a lack of cutlery - not a huge problem. Wasn't always staffed.
Review 29:The hostel was clean and tidy - although slightly sterile. There were two kitchens, which was nice.
Review 30:A little bit far away from city centre.
Review 31:First time stay in hostel, not bad. Hostel is pretty new,everything is clean,staff is helpful,can speak Finnish,English and Russian.
Review 32:A room for four was too tiny for a family; poor air conditioning(actually there was no any). Despite the staff's efforts sometimesthere was a mess in the kitchen and toilets (that's more onguests' conscious).Poor wi-fi signal.
Review 33:The staff isn't too introsive; the location is suitable both forshopping (not far from the Kauppatori) and slow walks (the hostel is bythe lake just near a park). There's also a convenient fork to e63highway just near the hostel.
Review 34:I personally did'nt find anything negative to say about the hostel.
Review 35:It was well situated near the city centre,about 15 minute walk. The rooms are clean and spacious enough to spend a short visit in and it was nice to have a television in the room too! As for low budget,I would recommend to anyone who is travelling through Kuopio on their way around Finland and don't want to spend loads of money to just put your head down for a night or two.
