Kakola hill · Turku
Time seems to move a little more slowly on Kakola hill. The granite buildings, sheltered courtyards and rocky landscape of the prison founded here in 1853 have found a new life, while the unhurried spirit and distinct character of the place remain.
Kakolan Torni is an understated, executive-level home and a respectful interpretation of the area's history. Rather than recreating the past, the interior carries its sense of dignity through natural stone, marble, brass, wood and warm neutral tones. There is room to gather in the living area and around the dining table, and two bedrooms for privacy.
“The home is so well-appointed and even has its own sauna. Very comfortable beds and lots of space.”
“There’s a café and bakery next door serving a delicious breakfast.”
“A very clean, elegant apartment in an idyllic, quiet neighbourhood.”

The character of this home
Start the morning at the bakery, walk by the river, then return for the hill's restaurants, spa or an evening on your own balcony. Everything is close, yet Kakola has a world of its own.
Natural stone, marble, brass, wood and carefully chosen furniture create exceptional quality without asking for attention. The comforts are entirely contemporary.
Slow down in your private sauna, visit nearby Kakola Spa, or take in the evening light from the large balcony.
