Finnhostel Joensuu is an apartment hostel near the town centre and, because of its quiet location, ideal for families with children. The market place is just 1 kilometre (0.6 miles) away and the beautiful Linnunlahti area and a beach are in the vicinity.
Every apartment has a bathroom and a fully-equipped kitchen, internet access and TV, which ensure you feel at home even during a longer stay. Our rates include bed linen and a towel, breakfast and sauna.
The diverse fitness classes (e.g. zumba) of Eastern Finland Sports Institute are also available to our guests. Entrance to the gym is free of charge. We have free parking for both cars and buses. From Joensuu railway station (about 2 kilometres / 1.2 miles) to the hostel you can get, for example, on foot, walking along the beautiful river Pielisjoki. Joensuu airport is about 10 kilometres (6.5 miles) away and you can travel the distance either by airport bus, which takes you to the market place, or by taxi. From the market place you can take a local bus to the hostel.
The hostel reception is in the main building of Eastern Finland Sports Institute, address Kalevankatu 8. The bedrooms are housed by the building on the other side of the street. Joensuu is a compact town where every place can be reached by bike. The hostel has bikes to rent. The lake scenery of Pyhäselkä is a perfect place to enjoy the nature and river Pielisjoki can be admired, for example, from a canoe. In July, Ilosaarirock festival fills the town with music enthusiasts. The great national landscape of Koli is 70 kilometres (45 miles) away, and you can order a minibus taxi to collect you from the hostel. In the town you can visit, among other places, the art museum and Taitokortteli, a handicraft and culture quarter, where all kinds of shops selling handicrafts entice shoppers in an old wooden house milieu. There are also many good cafes to tickle your palate. Ask the reception staff for recommendations!
