Sokos Hotel Kupittaa

Next Kupittaa – you can get off the train and go straight to breakfast

Turku’s Kupittaa is a rapidly growing district with excellent transport connections thanks to its railway station and the nearby Helsinki-Turku motorway. The development of the Kupittaa area is one of the top projects in the city of Turku, and in recent years a lot of real estate has been built in the area for the needs of both companies and educational institutions.

Sokos Hotel Kupittaa is located right next to Kupittaa train station. It is part of a previously completed complex of Intelligate office buildings, and the station provides comfortable access to the hotel lobby via the interior. The hotel was supposed to be replaced by an office building, but plans changed as the need for accommodation and restaurant services in the area increased.

ETS NORD’s products have already become familiar to some extent to Jukka Ketola, project manager of Saipu, the HVAC contractor for the new construction project.  The ventilation solution for the restaurant premises on the first floor of Sokos Hotel Kupittaa was implemented with ETS NORD’s kitchen canopies.

There is seating for close to three hundred customers in the restaurant premises, and the height of the restaurant hall was utilized by placing customer seats in the loft of the hall. The restaurant’s kitchen is an open space that is challenging for ventilation: the fumes, smoke and grease generated during cooking must be quickly and efficiently removed from the air. This is taken care of by ETS NORD’s efficient professional kitchen canopy with ozonator cleaning.

– An open, combined kitchen and restaurant space is a demanding place that requires good equipment, says Ketola. – ETS NORD’s ozonator canopy does the job well and has an excellent price-quality ratio, he continues.
