Within the same block, you’ll find everything from dining restaurants and casual eateries to a cozy café and a nightclub. Menus are available at Raflaamo.fi or via a QR code on your room TV. S-Card menus are displayed at the hotel reception and available from your waitress in the restaurants. Amarillo, Rosso, and Torero can all be accessed conveniently indoors from the hotel.

Our biggest plus is the convenient parking hall with direct access to the hotel. Business meetings or evening cultural events in the city center are always within walking distance. The S-market downstairs is open daily until 10 p.m. Numerous shopping options are available both within the same building and across the street – perfect if you forgot something at home. The Sokos department store also houses an S-hair salon as well. Excellent outdoor and sports facilities can be found nearby, and you can borrow Jopo bicycles from the hotel to explore Joensuu further.
