Latest Kouvola hotel reviews
empbu Says: I've worked there for the last two summers! In the photo is the Kouvola carousel.Well, it's a theme park! They are always fun... aren't they? :) It's one of the largest ones in Finland.
yumyum Says: This locomotive is a monument to the old times. It can be seen outside the railway station. If you stand in front of the railway station facing it, then it is to your right.
3 Reviews and 7 Opinions I did not actually stay there but there is this hotel in this town.
SandiMandi Says: This is my favourite cafe in Kouvola, mostly because of the central location and relaxed ambience. It's a chain cafe, so you can find Coffeehouse in Helsinki, Tampere, Lappeenranta and many other towns as well. The prices are a bit high, which is why I usually only take a...
Fransmanni: Restaurant Fransmanni
SandiMandi Says: Fransmanni is the restaurant in Sokos Hotel Vaakuna in Kouvola. Been there many times and their food never disappoints me. It's a good place for a night out with a bunch of friends, but also offers a nice ambience for a dinner for just the two of you. Chicken pasta with...
SandiMandi Says: Hesburger is a popular fast food chain in Finland. The food is basically the same as at McDonald's: hamburgers, fries, salads and soft drinks. The interior is colourful, the ambience a bit noisy especially upstairs where there is a playing area for children. Great for a...
SandiMandi Says: Amarillo serves tasty tex-mex food such as tortillas, quesadillas and nachos. There are also burgers, steaks and pasta on the menu. Nice, relaxed ambience and good service. After you're finished your meal you can enjoy a few drinks or even stay there all night, since there's...
Bar Café Columbia: Nice little café at railway station
SandiMandi Says: Small cafe in front of the railway station in Kouvola. A good place to sit and wait for your bus/train or just enjoy a cup of cappuccino while reading newspapers or watching people outside. They serve all sorts of coffee, sandwiches and sweet pastries and also beer and other...
Olé: Excellent Spanish Restaurant
eriste Says: Spanish Restaurant Olé gave our groop of 12 people such a good food that we all were very satisfied. This was in July 2005.
Kahvihuone ja Drinkkibaari Libris: Central European style
Blondiina Says: Nice addition to the coffee-scene in Kouvola. This place has sertain old time charm and it resembles traditional European cafés. They have a good selection of coffees and alcoholic cocktails and also homebaked pies and cakes.
Blondiina Says: This restaurant/bar serves nice tex-mex food in big portions and they also have very wide selections of beer and cider. Don't expect much from the service and it can get a bit noisy if there are a lot of people at the bar drinking, but the food is good so it's definitely a...
Blondiina Says: This small restaurant offers good Chinese food, especially their lunch buffet for about 7-7,5 € is really good value and their tea is absolutely lovely. The owners don't speak or understand much Finnish, but they are welcoming and smiling. They also provide take away if you...
Bella Pizza Kebab: Pita kebab to die for!
Blondiina Says: I didn't like kebab, before I tried their Pita Kebab. It's absolutely delicious so go there and try for yourself if you're craving some fast food. Quite obvious isn't it. Pita Kebab of course, but they do make good pizzas too.
Irish Pub Old Tom: Irish Pub Old Tom
empbu Says: It's not a very big one but it's a great place! Used to be my other 'living room' before "Rytmi-Katti" opened in Kouvola and I still go here every once in a while. :) Excellent selection of different beers & ciders, also some tasty food if you get hungry during a long...
empbu Says: Perhaps the most popular place to start the night at, it's very crowded there until about midnight when the majority of people make their way to other places. The prices are alright and the atmosphere is nice!Illusion is a nice place to go even during the week (or in the...
yumyum Says: The trains between St. Petersburg and Helsinki stop here. Coming from StP you can only get off. This is a crossroad if you want to go into the area near the Russian border. There are also frequent train connections to Helsinki.There are various buses from here. You can...
empbu Says: Kouvola has one of Finland's biggest "crossroad" train stations, so possibly the easiest way to get there is to travel by train. For example, it takes two hours to travel to Kouvola from Helsinki and a one-way ticket for adults costs around 20 euros, depending on the train.
empbu Says: Your feet are possibly the fastest equipment to get around in Kouvola. So bring good shoes. :-)) Or even better, a bike!
empbu Says: The pesäpallo (the American version of the game is called baseball :-))... except that pesäpallo is very far from it and, in my opinion, much more fascinating) season began in May and will go on until September. The team of Kouvola, KPL (Kouvolan Pallonlyöjät) is playing in...
empbu Says: This is the pesäpallo field. This summer I've spent 16 evenings here watching the games and I could easily have spent at least twice as much. :)
bolleboos Says: Can't remember the name of this street. Too bad...

Hmm... I wonder how this page will look like when I've finished it? So difficult writing about the town you live in (at least if it is as small as Kouvola, lol)! I have lived here since 1999 and spent...

I spent a little time in this town between train and bus connections. This is the city center to which you can walk straight up from the railway/busstation. There is this pedestrian shopping street......

If you go to Kouvola, the only really really "must" is to visit the great Spanish restaurant Olé. It is the best steak restaurant I've ever been to. The food is superb, especially the Pork Catalonia...

My grandmother lives in Kouvola. Actually there is not much to do in Kouvola, but I'm biased in saying this 'cause I'm from Helsinki
