Autumn Holiday at Bomba
Looking for the perfect autumn holiday destination? Break Sokos Hotel Bomba in Nurmes offers an unforgettable autumn holiday in the heart of the most beautiful North Karelia. Bomba's breathtaking scenery, diverse activities and the relaxation offered by the spa make your holiday a perfect escape from everyday life. Here are the best tips for spending your autumn holiday:
1. Stay comfortably
Here at Bomba you'll find accommodation to suit many tastes. Whether you want an easy and affordable option or a more spacious room with your own sauna and lake view. Take advantage of our spa offer here and enjoy the warmth of the spa throughout your visit.
Our hotel rooms are located in the log terraced houses of Karjalaiskylä and in three different sections of the spa hotel: the forest wing, the main section and the magnificent Järvisiipi. Karjalaiskylä is located in front of Bomba House, about 500 m from the hotel. In Karjalaiskylä you can stay affordably. It's easy to head out from there and you can park your car right next to it. In the same building as the spa you'll find many different options whether you're travelling alone, as a couple or with a larger group. A special feature of the new rooms in Järvisiipi is the floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows, which offer a magnificent view of the ever-changing lake landscape of Pielinen. The rooms on the top floor also have their own balcony. Explore our accommodation options in more detail here.
2. The spa is warm even on rainy days
In the stylish pool area of Spa Bomba, which exudes Kalevala mysticism, you can bathe in hot, cold and jacuzzi pools, and in the outdoor pools the North Karelian nature opens up as if into your lap. In the sauna world you can enjoy the warmth of Kyly, Sampo and Taivaankansi saunas as well as the unique atmosphere. In the warmth of the spa and the pampering jacuzzis you'll forget the rush of everyday life. And you can even take a dip in Pielinen conveniently straight from the sauna. You can buy refreshing drinks from the pool bar. During autumn holiday weeks 42-43, the spa opens exceptionally early at nine in the morning, so that all water enthusiasts have time to enjoy it to the fullest. Read more about the spa here.
3. Get to know the area with a guide or go on a self-guided adventure when it suits you
Trips in the Bomba area are organized and equipment is rented by Bomba Safaris. You'll find the Safaris team right next to the hotel, at Kalevan Hovi's Safaritalo. Book a guided trip and experience the best bits of the area's nature with a professional guide.

Grab an electric-assisted fatbike and pop out on a trip to Ellunkallio for example, or rent a Coopop electric vehicle and drive around to explore the historically valuable Puu-Nurmes wooden house area.
