The town has interesting old buildings, and the seaside is open with parks all around. There are some good restaurants in the Rewell shopping mall. With buses it is easy to get to places slightly out of town. There are playgrounds in the middle of the city for kids and the main library has books in various languages for them to sit and read for awhile. We liked Edvin's Path, which you can get to on bus #15.
However, if you want to see the Kvarken archipelago, wait until mid-June to visit Vaasa, otherwise there will be no boat tours.

Good: Good shopping opportunities, especially at Kivihaka.
Good: Good shopping opportunities, especially at Kivihaka. I estimate the Swedish-speaking percentage of the residents at 75%, probably the highest in Finland by some margin. 24/7 kiosk at Shell Pitkäkatu. Generally nice-looking city. Tropiclandia was nice for a summer day.
Less impressive: Getting to/from the ferry pier is chaotic (especially when the ferrytaxi driver didn't speak Swedish nor English). It was not easy to find any of the city's restaurants.
Personal tip: I'd favour trying to figure out how to get from downtown to Kivihaka by bus next time, due to the overly snaking pavement paths between the two.

The people are nice and helpful and the town centre is small enough to walk through it and see everything on foot. The beach is lovely, especially in winter and it guarantees for a great walk and great scenery.
The bus service was a bit difficult to grasp as bus stops are not well marked and buses are not frequent especially outside the centre of Vaasa.

A very quiet place with many shops and bars.
A very quiet place with many shops and bars. However nothing is really thought for tourists. We wanted to visit the Kvarken Penisula 25 km North. There are buses going there a couple of weeks in July but August was already considered Fall period. The last day we were there, we were planning to take the bus used by scholars, following Tourist Office advice but the information turned wrong. We tried to rent a car but there was nothing available. We went to Tempere that we really liked for its friendly people and its lakes.

The seaside walking paths are great for dog owners.
The seaside walking paths are great for dog owners.
We enjoyed the flat breads of Niska Vasa.
The Aroma Bageri & Konditori is a highly recommended plae if you like well baked bread and sweet buns!
The UNESCO World Heritage site Kvarken Archipelago is close by and worth visiting for ones who like to see nature on their trips.
The breakfast buffet was excellent, lots of variety in a cozy breakfast room (not the usual hotel buffet feel). Room had a sauna and spa which were wonderful. Room itself was a bit different, old fashioned style (we were in the older part of the hotel). The location is excellent, walking distance from the central square and 5 mins walk from the beach street.
One of the best places we stayed in Finland. Wonderful decorations with model ships and nautical bric-a-brac. The sauna was great. Very spacious and well appointed. Information from host was complete, concise and timely. Breakfast was modest, though good and fresh. We wished we could have stayed longer.
Excellent place to stay in Vaasa! Apartment was very clean, convenient, everything needed in place. Good variety of products for breakfast, kids and adults we’re happy. Convenient parking place in the yard and walking distance to shops and restaurants. 10 of 10. Thank you very much for you hospitality!
The staff was really friendly - even though the hotel closed early, they arranged us the dinner and an upgraded room with sauna. The hotel is a bit old-fashioned but comfortable and clean, and most importantly, quiet and dark at night. The breakfast was adequate. Overall a really nice experience.
really nice and sizable room with beautiful view from the window
it was amazing experience
I will be back in very short time
I want to express my sincere gratitude to the employee of this magnificent hotel for the wonderful atmosphere that they have created with their work
This hotel was fine, it has all it needs, staff is friendly and helpful and rooms are OK - clean and sterile. But nothing special. No sauna or amenities of that kind. I personally would try to stay in a nicer one in the city center next time.
West Bay Inn was an apartment which offered sheets and towels, some cutlery.
Great location if you want to go and see a play in Vaasa Theatre – it is just next door. Modern and new, very tidy.
