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.

Great location. Close to sights and shops. Lovely clean room

Disregarding the overly enthusiastic, yet rude (Indian?) waiter at breakfast, the service was excellent.
The room was fabulous in all other ways but the water pressure was very weak, which made it difficult to rinse thick hair. The bed was great! Thanks for that! <3
Really nice balcony but terribly "view" to a construction site.
Overall a very nice hotel, will visit again.
4.0
This hotel is convenient to the station.
Breakfast is served on the 10th floor, so great view.
5.0
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!!

Very good hotel with excellent breakfast in the city center of Helsinki.

We had rooms facing the inner yard. They were completely quiet. (We don´t know anything about exterior rooms facing streets.) Good beds. Nice breakfast. Beautiful entrance foyer in classic Finnish funktionalism. Excellent location between main Mannerheim street and Central railway station.
4.0
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.
5.0
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.
5.0
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!
2.5
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.
4.0
Convenient but rooms a little drab even though they are clean and practical. Breakfast congested but a big hotel.

Great location when taking the train from the airport. Would definitely stay here again.
5.0
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.

Excellent location and amazing staff
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.

Great breakfast. Small elevators. Small bathrooms. I fell outside on uneven pavers. No disabled entrance. You must go up stairs.
4.0
A lot of smokers lighting up right outside the front door--pretty stinky.
5.0
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.
3.0
Staff, especially at Reception, were excellent. Cheerful and helpful. Room was tiny and very cramped. Not even room for a chair.
4.0
The location is extremely convenient for moving about. The bathroom area is disproportionately small; the hall passage is too narrow; the extractor fan not working properly.
5.0
One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in. An architectural marvel. Location couldn’t be more perfect for exploring Helsinki. The breakfast AND the restaurant itself are a total knockout. Staff super friendly. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

Location is great, breakfast is good, service is very good
