The room was cosy and nice. Breakfast was really great. Possibility to go to Sauna upto 10 pm is really nice. Location is good.
The room door was not that good to keep the corridor noice out, with better seal it should be okay, though.
The bed and pillows in comfort level room. I slept so well.
There was some trash in the hallways on the 2nd floor.
The ladies at the reception were very polite, room was very clean. The location is very good.
The coridor, my door was very old and the feeling was not pleasant, but the bathroom is new, clean and modern, even it is small. I had a single room. It's look i booked a single-bed and bed and the room was very narrow and small. For a small extra charge you can get a newer hotel nearby with a double bed for one person.
Spacious rooms and good breakfast
Small issues with the two rooms. Shower didn’t drain properly and the TV in the other room didn’t work. Also, one of the night shift staff at reception wasn’t able to provide us with recommendations on what to do in Helsinki. That being said, the issues with the rooms were fixed overnight so the prompt response was appreciated ☺️
Good location, excellent atmosphere, friendly staff, Finnish design.
Nothing particular.
Excellent breakfast - barley porridge was a meal in itself. Lots of fruits and salads and really good coffee.The room, though on the small side, was stylish and different from the chain hotels
A power point near to the bed would be convenient so that one could look at the phone while it is charging.
Good location, nice neat and quiet room. The bed and pillows were good. It was also nice to have a sauna.
The breakfast was a big disappointment for a gluten free person. Highly processed white bread, no pancakes, waffles nor even warm porridge. I wouldn't come back for breakfast.
Very spacious room. Good breakfast.
Room was not ready in time. Waffle iron was disgusting.
Very conveniently located, 10 minutes walk from the train station and surrounded by many good restaurants. My single room was small but very comfortable, perfect for a few days’ stay. On the sixth floor there is a nice sauna open in the mornings and evenings from 5 pm till 10 pm. Breakfast is rich and various. The staff was very nice and friendly and check in and out are super fast. I definitely recommend this hotel and will choose it again next time I’m in Helsinki
Central location, room clean.
Very tiny room, scarce interior in the room, sauna did not work (even though this is Finnland!), shower very small, breakfast OK but not great. Overall room rate is too high considering what you are getting in return.
Cosy feel, excellent breakfast and nice bar area.
Found the room too warm.
Breakfast was continental, presentation and display was grand. room was spacious, comfortable.conveniently located, walkable distance from the central station and market square.
There is nothing to mention in particular. homely and cordial staff at the reception.
A small and cosy hotel in central Helsinki. My go-to when I travel for work to Helsinki. Staff are very friendly, breakfast is plentiful, the room cosy and very clean.
I have visited this hotel years ago and quite few times. It was nice too see it had the same standing still. I like the design and breakfast room is big enough; not fully crowded. The bonus is well isolated rooms. Very quiet and near the city.
Great for 1 or 2 nights stay. Very good breakfast.
More expensive than similar hotels nearby.
Good vegan options for breakfast (fresh waffles, yoghurt, soy and oat milk, beans, falafel, cheese imitation, cake)
Location, staff, breakfast.
Lack of comfortable seating in our room.
