Laivahostel S/S Bore

Laivahostel S/S Bore is a unique hostel located aboard a museum ship, offering a nostalgic atmosphere reminiscent of 1960s Swedish cruises. Originally built as a steamship, the โ€œNolla-Boreโ€ is now permanently anchored on the Aura River, in front of the Forum Marinum Maritime Centre, conveniently situated between Turku Harbour and Turku Castle. The hostel also serves as a learning environment for students from Turku Vocational Institute in various fields. 

The hostel features 120 cabins (accommodating 1โ€“4 people), most with private showers and toilets. The price includes bed linens, a towel, morning sauna, and breakfast. 

The Tax-Free lounge offers a cosy space with a TV, daily newspapers, a small library, a kitchenette (microwave, kettle, coffee maker, refrigerator), and a luggage room with lockable storage lockers. Free Wi-Fi is available in the cabins and public areas of the ship. 

Guests can park their cars at the Forum Marinum parking area free of charge, but a parking disc (for stays under 8 hours) or a parking permit is required. Parking permits are available at reception. Visitors can also purchase tickets at the reception for the Bore ship museum exhibition, located on the shipโ€™s bridge, showcasing the shipโ€™s history. 

Welcome aboard Finlandโ€™s only ship hostel!
