The staff were efficient, friendly and very helpful. The room I had (king size solo up) was excellent, spacious with excellent amenities. Breakfast is varied and well stocked throughout the period. The hotel is situated at the centre and close to restaurants/bars and shops. Short walking will get you to the habour where boat trips to the local islands are readily available. I was very pleased with my choice of room and hotel.
Gregory
The hotel is in the most central location imaginable.
The hotel staff was the most helpful and accommodating. When they learned that we will have a very early check out they prepared boxed breakfasts and called a cab the get us to the airport.

Greta location for touring Helsinki. Walkable to the Market Square, Metro, and Esplanade. Hotel's bar and restaurant are very convenient and rooms are roomy and comfortable.
gigi
Very central... close to everything...
FAYE
The hotel is in a very convenient location, within walking distance of major attractions, shopping, and dining. Having a restaurant on-site is also a nice benefit.
My only complaint is that the front desk appeared to be understaffed during busy hours. I waited at least 20 minutes to receive my room key. During the check-in process, the agent was repeatedly pulled away to handle other tasks and often became engaged in conversations with colleagues and other guests. What should have been the simplest part of my trip ended up being the most frustrating experience.

Very nice rooms and great location. Breakfast was tasty with wide choices.
Catherine
This hotel is in the perfect place for lots of sight seeing/shopping of the old town of Helsinki. A block from the Senate square and another short block to the waterfront. They offer an absolutely delicious breakfast. Room was clean, quiet and very roomy. Would happily stay here again next time we are in Helsinki.

Rooms were ok..Breakfast was basic, there was no reindeer, moose or smoked salmon at all, unbelievable when you consider the locals go crazy for it..
Staff were disciplined and not dangerous..

CHRISTOPHER
Great downtown location. for the price was really a nice place. The common areas could use some attention, but the room was more than nice enough for the one night I was there. bathroom and shower were nice, clean and mod design.
Oh, and the breakfast that was included was excellent!

The location is good, but getting to the hotel was a struggle. Since it’s not on the main road and there is no luggage service or even trolleys available, we had to drag our bags all the way ourselves.
The service and cleanliness were far below 4-star standards. In the first room, the mattress protector was stained and dirty. When I complained, the receptionist said housekeeping had already finished their shift and incredibly suggested that she could just remove the protector and I could sleep directly on the mattress! This was highly unhygienic and unprofessional.
After I insisted on a proper solution, we were moved to a superior room. However, this one was prepared for a pet stay; it had a dog welcome kit and bowls left on the bench, and the room had an unpleasant smell. While the receptionist was helpful and removed the items immediately once called, the overall lack of basic hygiene and preparation was very disappointing for a 4-star experience.

I love the breakfast buffet. It has so many options. Staffs are all friendly. Nothing to complain
Firoze
Good Property with excellent location and good restaurants around. rooms were spacious and clean. 4 people can comfortably sleep (in a standard room which was given to us). no view from any rooms as they are in the middled surrounded by buildings, that was the only issue. Breakfast buffet was good, but they only gave pre made scramble eggs in the buffet dish. there no options for any type of different eggs, which could have made a complete excellent breakfast. rest all was good. overall were very happy with the stay, though the pricing was a bit high, could be because of New years.
Emilio
All our stay was amazing, friendly staff, comfortable rooms, great breakfast and a very good location in the city centre
dalia
Probably one of the best stays ever! Super convenient to walk around and plenty of of dining options. Staff super friendly. Would definitely recommend and would stay here any visit to Helsinki again!
Leo
Walking distance to major sights in city centre, great public transit access, clean and safe neighbourhood, excellent breakfast, large room.

Friendly and professional staff, who made good recommendations and were abel to answer our question and make our stay in Helsinki a fantastic experience. Very comfortable room.
Charles
Everything from the reception to the restaurant staff were excellent. The breakfast was great with traditional Nordic foods. (Powdered eggs were not so great). Dinners were phenomenal. Rooms were basic but clean with great views. I would stay there again. Centrally located to so many restaurants and sites.

Sleek and stylish hotel. Clean. Relatively quiet but near city center. Bed was very firm and pillows were very soft and thin (very uncomfortable for me but that is a matter of preference). Nonetheless, it was a good place to stay.
leo
Good location and clean room
Shower door needs better seal to prevent water splash getting to bathroom floor. Each day we waste a towel to seal the water splash and getting towel completely soaked with water.
Daniel
Exceptional Stay—Highly Recommended
I had a fantastic experience at this hotel and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting the area. From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making the entire stay feel welcoming and stress-free.
The room was clean, well-appointed, and comfortable, with a great shower that was especially convenient for families with kids. The beds were plush and supportive, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. I also appreciated the modern TV setup and entertainment options—perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing.
The hotel’s location is ideal, right in the heart of the city and within walking distance of major tourist attractions, restaurants, and shops. It made exploring the area effortless and enjoyable.
One of the standout features was the breakfast buffet—hands down the best I’ve ever had. I genuinely looked forward to it every morning. The variety, quality, and freshness of the offerings were exceptional.
Additional amenities like the gym and lounge areas were well-maintained and added to the overall comfort and convenience of the stay.
In short, this hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. I’ll definitely be returning.
I had a fantastic experience at this hotel and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting the area. From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making the entire stay feel welcoming and stress-free.

Great Choice in Helsinki
Perfect location, close to the Central Train Station and Helsinki Cathedral, walk to most of the scenic spots, shopping area and there are many restaurants right next to the hotel. Modern clean hotels with decent size rooms and very nice breakfast.

In addition to being excellent in every category, the hotel was just one block away from the train station - the central hub of all public transportation: metro, trains, buses, and trams. Public transportation was terrific. You can purchase your daily, or multiple day, pass at the airport and travel to the hotel and almost any place you want to visit during your stay.
Michael
It was good but not as good as two years ago. The room was smaller than last time and the price was quite a bit higher.
Graham
Small but beautiful hotel close to the train station and ideally located to explore Helsinki. Staff could not have been more helpful. Highly recommend.
Janet
It was very convenient for the railway station, dining and shopping. It was a short walk away from the harbour, from which we did most of our excursions.
stephanie

Clean rooms, helpful staff, convenient central location, incredible breakfast buffet — possibly the best in Helsinki. Only minus is that rooms on lower floors can get night noise from the busy commercial street.

Everything worked as expected
One night stay. Good location in the Helsinki centrum. Hotel room with king sized bed, three options for pillow, no hand towels - nothing wrong, nothing special, good standard. Breakfast buffet had quite good variety. Rating is based on cost and expectations.
Benjamin

Johan
Amazing stay! Great value!
Noppadon
Great location.
Nikki
The room was fine but the bathroom redefines tiny. If you sit on the toilet your knees touch the sink. Also, the linens smelled stale even after being changed. It was an adequate stay but could have been better.
Sarah
Great location
Really well placed hotel, very close to the train station and city centre sights. The room was excellent with plenty of space. Reception staff were all really helpful.

Perfect location for main campus of the University
I stayed here for a conference held at the main campus of the University of Helsinki, and it was the perfect location. Less than 50 metres to the meeting rooms. Breakfast was good but seemed disorganized at times, especially when it was busy -- most mornings I had to remind the staff to bring coffee, as they tended to forget. Luggage storage on arrival (until the room was ready) was not properly secured, which was a bit worrying but turned out OK. They don't do housekeeping unless you ask for it -- they didn't tell me that at check-in -- but I eventually asked for every second day and that was just fine. The location for much of downtown is also good, good selection of restaurants nearby as well
Viivi
Hotel was centrally located with quick access to all the main city attractions. Hotel was fashionable in its appearance offering the new with the old very well. Room size was more than adequate with great comfortable beds and bathroom. Breakfast was usual standard fare but coffe was better than usual.

Comfortable as always
Due to my short stay we agreed that a daily cleaning was notv necessary.
Enjoyed very much the heavy bath towel.
Regret that the filling up on mineral waters did not work.

As always a pleasurable sensation
A familiar hotel to me since the 1980's having been recently renowated. Its central location is an advantage. A nice staff. Concerning the room everything good with the exception of the pillows. The new towels marvellous. However, you must have your own [long] shoehorn with you!
