Sightseeing

Nature is everywhere around you and the riverside is right there as you walk down the serpent garden trail next to our famous Funicular – you can use the elevator to get back up on the hill.

Traveler advice

Don't miss

Welcome to Kakola neigborhood!

Kakola as an area is known for its colorful history – the former prison district is nowadays appreciated area that represents urban lifestyle and has the atmosphere of Central European cities. There are artisan restaurant facilities available just around the corner: Kakola Brewery, bakery Bageri Å, easygoing fine dining restaurant Kakolanruusu and the hotel area’s restaurant Ruben’s brunch + wine cellar are foodie’s dream. Riverside is full of high-quality restaurants as well – my own personal favorite for lunch is Restaurant Nooa. Have a glass of wine in a riverboat restaurant and enjoy!
