03 Jan 2012 Dariusz, Poland:
The hostel is a convenient place for those going by ferries to Stockholm, the Aland Islands or St Petersburg. Ferry terminals are nearby (although you have to take a smaller ferry to the city center at first).
For good eats check out... 03 Jan 2012 Dariusz, Poland:
Fish soup in Kauppahalli (once inside, choose the left coridor and find the small resaurant with a menu in the form of a string of sheets). Glogi (hot wine with raisins and almonds), reindeer salad or Lappish cheese recomnended as well. Food stand (mostly with fish) at Kauppatori are a good opton for a quick and tasty lunch, especially in warmer months. Cinnamon buns (korvapuusti pulla) in any cafe (be aware though that the Finnish coffee is of a characteristic taste, rarely appreciated by those accustomed to more delicate flavours :)
