Lots of breakfast options
Glenn
We loved our stay at the hotel. The location was perfect, the staff was wonderful and our room was very nice. The complementary breakfast was fantastic with so many choices. We had dinner in the dining room and both the service and food were excellent. I can’t imagine finding a hotel in Helsinki with better value for the money. It really set the tone for our trip to Helsinki.
Maria
Fabulous as always, the superior room with the balcony was excellent: quiet, lovely and big, excellent light and a nice walk in shower well worth paying extra for. All hotel amenities were great, towels, robe slippers etc. Great sauna available free in the evenings or morning. Breakfast was superb, such a big selection and lovely views from the 10th floor. The location of this hotel is fantastic and allows ease of use for all of the city, easy to find straight out of the airport/ train to city with no real walking distance with luggage in the snow this is a bonus! 100% would recommend.
maricar
Very nice comfortable, close to central station , safe
Leena
Everything about our stay was great! Room was clean and comfortable, sauna was hot, and the breakfast buffet was delicious!
Anthony
Slightly old fashioned but clean, friendly, nice restaurant and bar on 10th floor with great views. Very (very) easy from airport to central station by train. No more than 4-5 min walk station to hotel. Hotel well situated for central Helsinki sights and waterfront.
Jude
Great location next to the railway station. Room was clean & spacious. Comfortable bed & great views.
Staff were very helpful & friendly. Definitely would stay again.

Judy
Nice hotel. Great staff. Great location from central train station & easy walkable distances to places/attractions. Would stay again.
Aaron
Cleanliness of bathroom was pretty poor with mould around the toilet. Amenities in room pretty average with no moisturizer even in winter. Breakfast was 90% inedible. Mass produced food, cordial sugar water for juice, eggs like paste. All I ate was bread and yoghurt
Lee BS
Fabulous front desk staff. Spacious room and toilet. Great amenities. Perfect location just opposite the train station and a big shopping mall right below. Plenty of shops around. Ability to leave luggage a few days before check in when we onward to Rovaniemi. Would recommend friends and family to stay here!
Patricia
Hotel property location is a walking distance to shopping center and many tourist attractions, breakfast was very good and the staff was very friendly

Great room, handy to everything
Erina
Very convenient location - not only next to main train station but also has lots of tram and bus stops around. Also able to walk to places quite easily.
Really enjoyed breakfast buffet - there were so many Finnish food dishes that we were able to try :)

The hotel is very near to the train station. However, the lift is very small and xan only take 4 pax maximum. Breakfast spread is good.
Anne
Great location, and great views from the breakfast. The only disappointment that the breakfast no longer had smoked salmon available.
Steven
Beautiful room with nice size balcony, and great view of the city. Great breakfast buffet! Central train station is very close by and easy access to public transportation! There are also plenty of grocery stores within walking distance. Variety of dining restaurants are lacking, but there are plenty for a quick bite.
David
The hotel is a throwback to the 70s. Has not been updated since the Nixon administration. I really didn’t mind the old style, it was kind of charming actually.
I did mind the fact that the tub drain wasn’t positioned properly and all the water draining from the tub wound up on the floor during my wife’s shower. I know it’s not my problem, but I can’t allow water to gratuitously drain on the floor….anyone’s floor. I was vexed by this problem. Luckily I have plumbing skills and I was able to take the two plates off of the access portion and I noticed that the pvc drainpipe from the tub was not squarely positioned over the separate floor drain. I carefully nudged the tub’s drain pipe so its end became positioned over that floor drain. Bingo! The problem was solved. The tub water then drained properly. No runs, drips or errors. I didn’t have to bug the staff and I was quite proud of myself for fixing it. That’s the German blood in me I suppose.
If you want towels replaced, you need to pre-arrange that at the front desk. My wife was informed that she should have arranged this originally at check in. I think it was a bit of eco-shaming.
Overall, the hotel has good karma I believe. Finland is a bit behind the times, but it’s all quite charming. We ate a reindeer for dinner in a nearby restaurant. There were many restaurants present in the surrounding area of the hotel.
The Bolt/Uber is a bit crazy just outside of the hotel, but just send the driver a message you are at Sokos.

Sari
Corner of the building 6th floor “Railway station view room” was a stretch when the view was from side window and rest of the windows faced building across the road and room was on top of the tram line. Room itself was great, superior king, lots of space and nice retro vibe. Inside the hotel and hallways were quiet BUT trams outside kept me up and woke me up during the three night stay. Breakfast was sufficient and view from 10th room restaurant great. Special thank you to Adalina at front desk. We appreciated your help on the day we checked out.
DIANA
Super convenient
Amazing location. All the transportation options are at your door and you can easily walk to the Olympic Stadium. Great breakfast selection.
Rachel
Lovely room and great breakfast.
Ronnie
convenient location to sights and train
Michael
Great stay. Walking distance to everything.
Karen
Room was comfortable and just across from the central train station, making it cery easy to do day trips. Also, saved on taxi fare to and from thecairport. This was my 2nd time staying at this hotel.

Maggie
The decor in our room was gorgeous. It felt so luxurious. Breakfast was a great buffet. Very accessible to the trains/transit.
Sandra
Original Sokos Vaakuna is a gem near the train station in Helsinki. The decor is charmingly restored vintage, everything I. Great condition. Very worthwhile to get a superior room on the 9th floor for amazing views and your own balcony overlooking the city. The 10th floor bar has even more incredible views with slightly higher than average cocktail prices but totally worth it. You can order a few menu items there at the bar and I recommend the creamy salmon soup- a good portion of grilled salmon with cooked vegetables in a milk and butter broth. The location is great for arriving by train (or by commuter train from the airport) and for walks to the Esplanadi, the waterfront, shopping and dining and to the design district.
Werner
4.5 stars. Bad about this hotel is no pool and fitness facility. But you can walk 5 minutes across the street to use the facilities ant the Presidentti at no charge. Ice is only available from the bar in the restaurant on the 10th floor, and a server isn’t there all the time. Wifi is free but weak and patchy. Standard rooms are very small such that 2 guests would be tripping over one another. Bathroom is tiny with no counter space.
Else, very convenient location with lots of shopping, eating and sightseeing opportunities within walking distance. Close to several public transportation hubs (bus, train and streetcar). Also a great pickup spot in front of the hotel main entrance for taxi or ride share pickup.
I would highly recommend staying here and would not hesitate to stay again if in a larger room.

What a great location! The hotel is directly opposite the train station to the airport, as well as beside the metro & trams to other parts of Helsinki. It's within walking distance to many food options, shopping, cafes & more.
The room was very spacious, comfortable and the breakfast was wonderful as well. The staff were friendly and helpful to answer any questions I had. Would gladly stay here again the next time I'm in Helsinki!

Perfect location! No more than a 10 minute walk from anywhere! Front desk personnel extraordinarily friendly. Very comfortable bedding. An absolute must if comfort and convenience matter to you
Toni
Great location next to the railway station!
Verified traveler
Excellent centrally located hotel
The only problem, in an otherwise excellent stay, was the hot water which was sometimes only luke warm.
The location of the hotel couldn't be better.

I reserved the 2 double beds with the 3rd bed option for my stay. The room had a \"courtyard view\" (i.e., overlooking the mall); it was quiet, spacious, spotless, had a nice sitting area, and the bathroom featured a deep soaking tub. Other room amenities included a mini fridge, coffee maker, safe, iron & board, desk, and generous clothing storage. I was not given a bathrobe or slippers - perhaps my room wasn't of that class? I didn't ask for them, either, as it simply wasn't that important to me, but YMMV.
The breakfast was a bit chaotic during the weekend, but that isn't unusual. There were many options for vegetarian/vegan and gluten-free, as well as the usual fare.
The sauna was delightful. If the opening hours were extended (earlier, later, or both) and morning hours were available for weekdays, I'd have used it more than I did.
The hotel itself was very nice, looked well-maintained, and was clean. The staff were wonderful from check-in to check-out, and I appreciate that they extended my checkout time without fuss when I inquired, especially given that my request was last-minute. Proximity to Helsingin päärautatieasema was important as well.
I didn't eat at Restaurant 10. Kerros, but Casa Largo was wonderful. Hesburger was wonderful as always; S-Market was a huge bonus, as was their huge assortment of Long Drink.
Overall, my stay was excellent, and I would stay here again in the future. Kiitos!

Wonderful hotel in Helsinki!
Great hotel in a fantastic location! The room was small, which we expected, but the balcony was huge! We could walk anywhere in 10-15 minutes. Fantastic breakfast! Highly recommend.

The hotel is in central location, 5 minutes walking to the central station. Majority of highlights are within walking distance, a lot of restaurants are near by. Our room is spacious and clean. Decent breakfast and in place sauna are plus. Hotel staffs are friendly.

Great place would recommend
Andres
Great location, lovely staff and good breakfast. Right next to central station. Easy to walk anywhere and catch public transport.
Wing
Areas around central station are always with tons of mixed types of people. It's a trade off for the convenience. Did not feel unsafe through my stay. Definitely not the same as uptown accommodations.
Richard
Surprisingly stylish. Amenities in the room well thought through. Breakfast beyond compare. Central location across from central station in city centre. Right when you want to be.
Ming Hin
Nothing to complain. Super convenient location.
ROBERT
Perfect location for shopping, all kind of food options from restraunts to grocery stores. The property and staff are awesome
LAZARUS

Timothy
Location is key, close to everything. Breakfast is great, staff is too: but minimal. Rooms a bit dated but very comfortable. Would definately re-book.
Susanne
Great location.
Maria Jane
Fabulously located near the train centre in the centre of the city. Worth paying more for a bigger room as they come with comfy chairs and all the little extras. Great selection of breakfast options and has a fab restaurant attached to it.cannot fault it and it’s indeed it was our third stay here for a holiday
Jana
Perfect place for in the city stop especially if your next destination is hopping on a train.
Margarita
This is an awesome place for anyone who comes to Helsinki and is not familiar with the area. The hotel is right next to the train station which makes it super easy to access from and to the airport. All city attractions, shopping, restaurants are at the walking distance. Customer service was wonderful. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would come back to this hotel and recommend to other people!!!
SHING
Good Location
location would be wonderful, connecting department store & underground shopping center
Donna Rica
Great location. A quick walk to the central train station and easy access to public transportation. It was so convenient to get to airport and port terminal from here. Surrouned by lots of shopping and restaurant options. The hotel is literally attached with direct door access to a shopping center that has a 24-hour grocery. No need to even walk outside. Within walking distance to popular attractions. Great breakfast at the higher floor with views of the city.
Anthony
Great location opposite central station, a comfortable hotel. modern amenities and classic style
CHING YEE WINIFRED
Large and clean room. Very good location. Staff are friendly and very helpful. But feel not safe for the sauna room, as no separate card for female sauna room. And the opening hours for sauna are too limited.
VIRIYA
First trip in Helainki. Hotel is in the city and is the opposite of Central station, super convenience. Room was super nice.
Angel
Excellent location across from Helsinki Station. It's an old hotel probably making it hard to upkeep but it feels dirty overall and housekeeping quality is low. Towels smell a bit, balcony has debris, sinks don't drain fast, etc..
Damaris
The staff is excellent, the location is great right in front of the main train station and the bus. Great hotel with excellent dining the breakfast is the best in town.
Rina Arip
The hotel double charged me for my stay. It is such a disappointment to be cheated by a well known hotel chain. it is truly disgusting.
Anne
Great breakfasts! (though, no fish at breakfast buffet??).
Lottie
Love this hotel in central Helsinki.
Friendly staff, great breakfast and you can’t beat the location.
Great history too as the hotel was opened for the Helsinki Olympics in the 50s.

Great location. Close to sights and shops. Lovely clean room
Dennis
On previous trips we have stayed at a different hotel in the same area near the train station. This is now our 'go to' hotel when we visit Helsinki!!
Karen Saunders
I loved my stay here! The hotel is literally across from the train station making it easy to get to and from the airport. It is also very close to all the trams. The room was larger than most and even included a bath robe! The bed was very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again!!
JOANN
Loved the view, so glad I upgraded to a room with balcony!! Also enjoyed the roof top bar!!
Elizabeth
Good customer service.
Kirk
Really loved staying here. The room was clean and quiet. Great views (we were on the 8th floor) easy access to buses, trams, trains. 10th floor breakfast was amazing. If you have the chance to meet Adam there he is a wonderful young man. Sauna was excellent. Staff at the hotel were friendly, kind and helpful. All the suites were close by, eating was close by. Korvapuusti is a must and Lidl has them very inexpensive.
Cheri
We were only here for one night and it's a great location. The check in took forever and it wasn't organized at all (the only real complaint if I had one). They just need to add ropes for a line formation or something. We chose a view of the shopping center and I wish I would've chosen something else. My fault! It's a great location and we walked everywhere, to that's a bonus. The room itself was clean and so was the property.
Jeane
The location is perfect with lots of shopping, dining, and attractions very close by. Our room had a magnificent view of the train station. The best part was the fabulous breakfast buffet on the rooftop. Stunning! The staff was helpful and friendly. We had a wonderful stay in Helsinki!
Ann
Architectural gem in center city
Great location for arrivals from the train, with centre city at your feet and all transit options nearby. For architecture buffs this 1952 era hotel is a must see - the public spaces (lobby, 8th floor elevator space, restaurant) are gorgeously detailed and retain their integrity.
kevin
Convenient but rooms a little drab even though they are clean and practical. Breakfast congested but a big hotel.
Kim
Great location when taking the train from the airport. Would definitely stay here again.
E
Right in front of the train station and surrounded by trams. There is a huge store and supermarket right underneath the hotel.
The breakfast room is sumptuous and overlooking the city (10th floor) and the buffet (included with the room) is the largest I have seen in a hotel.
Our room (2-twin beds and an extra bunk bed) had hard wood floors and was larger than regular 2-twin rooms. I asked for a quiet spot and it was definitely very quiet indeed.

Got room on top floor with balcony with beautiful views over city centre.
Aircon sadly did not cool the room. Temperature in room lowest setting possible is 19.5 degree C. You can't go loser than that. So room was hot.

Martha
Great breakfast. Small elevators. Small bathrooms. I fell outside on uneven pavers. No disabled entrance. You must go up stairs.
Robert
A lot of smokers lighting up right outside the front door--pretty stinky.
Sari
The rooms were larger than most European hotels. The large windows were nice as well. This hotel was ideal in location, directly across the street from the train station and within a short walk to the market and shopping.
