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.

2-night trip

10/10

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.

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.

10/10

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.

3-night trip

6/10

This hotel is relatively old but reasonably well kept. It's major advantages is the amazing location, which is second to none. The worst experience was the fact that it was not possible to cool down the room properly for sleeping and the window did not open. When confronting the staff with this problem the answer was that they were aware of the problem but it was company policy. We did not sleep well due to the heat in the room in the otherwise very nice king bed. Most other aspects of the stay was average including the breakfast that did not impress.
