Customer stories Panorama Resort
Panorama Resort is a travel company located in Tahko, consisting of the popular Panorama Bar & Cafe and the luxurious Panorama Hotel, opened in 2023.
Panorama Bar, located at the top of Tahko, offers stunning views and a cozy 90-seat restaurant with terraces and a pavilion. Afterski is enhanced by live music and DJs. In the evenings, the bar transforms into an atmospheric dining restaurant, accessible via a snowcat, where guests can enjoy dishes like smoked salmon, roasted lamb, or fondue.
Panorama Hotel provides high-quality accommodation at the top of Tahko with breathtaking views. The complex includes a hotel, a forest spa, and a restaurant. The hotel consists of unique landscape suites that blend seamlessly into the surrounding forest, with a forest spa featuring a scenic sauna as its highlight. At Havu Kitchen & Bar, Scandinavian and Eastern cuisine come together.
“We’ve been really satisfied with the collaboration. What we appreciate the most is Hurja’s flexibility – they never say no right off the bat, but instead, we always think together if an idea could work. That attitude sparks creativity and innovation on my end as well, as I can think of solutions purely from my business’s needs, rather than trying to fit a ready-made program into it. Local presence is also important to me, as I’m a bit of an old-school guy.”
Harri Jokela, CEO, Panorama Resort Oy
At Hurja, we have been Panorama Resort’s long-term digital partner, responsible for the technical implementation and maintenance of both Panorama Bar’s and now also Panorama Hotel’s websites. Our collaboration began over ten years ago when we first created the website for Panorama Bar & Cafe.
Originally, Panorama Bar’s website was built on Hurja’s proprietary platform but was later migrated to WordPress to better accommodate growing needs. We have since continued working on the Panorama Hotel’s website, delivering technical solutions that support the growing demand for its services.
Panorama Bar & Cafe is a renowned slope restaurant known for its breathtaking views over Tahko, offering unique dining experiences and snowcat transportation during the winter season.
These special services required advanced functionalities on the website. In the latest update, we implemented fully customized booking features on WordPress, allowing guests to easily reserve dining experiences and, in the future, snowcat rides, directly through the website. This seamless process enhances the experience for both customers and staff.
We also integrated a gift card shop into the website, providing an easy way for guests to purchase gift cards online. These tailored solutions are a vital part of Panorama Resort’s digital transformation of customer service processes.
Panorama Hotel offers high-end accommodation in the stunning landscape of Tahko. We created a modern, user-friendly website that supports the hotel’s growth strategy and caters to both domestic and international travelers. The visual design was created by a third party, while Hurja was responsible for the technical implementation, ensuring the site is intuitive and offers clear booking options tailored to the hotel’s specific needs.
At Hurja, we ensure that Panorama Resort’s websites not only look good but also function flawlessly from a technical perspective. Our long-standing collaboration allows for smooth and rapid development, where our deep understanding of the company’s needs plays a key role. We also handle the ongoing maintenance of the websites, ensuring they are always up to date and run efficiently.
The technical solutions behind Panorama Resort’s websites are designed to be scalable and easy to maintain. Every solution is tailored to meet the modern traveler’s expectations and support the client’s business growth. We ensure the websites are not only visually appealing but also technically advanced and user-friendly for both guests and staff.
The long-term partnership between Panorama Resort and Hurja enables efficient and rapid development, as we know each other’s ways of working and expectations. We take pride in supporting Panorama Resort’s growth and development in the travel industry by offering digital solutions that continually enhance service quality and the customer experience.
Together, we create digital solutions that support the business and offer customers a premium experience, whether dining at the top of Tahko or staying in a unique landscape suite.
