Best shower in Europe! Also very comfortable bed and pillow. Close to restaurants and trains/bus. Would be nice to have a full bar!

Original Sokos Hotel Kupittaa
The hotel is just one block from Turku University. The staff is great. The breakfast buffet is more like an American lunch or supper. 10 minute walk to the Turku Cathedral. We stayed 7 nights. Awesome.
