This hotel was fantastic. Beautiful spacious room and very close to all the local sites. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was amazing with lots of options.
Great location within easy walk from the ferry and to Old Town. The rooms were clean and well maintained. Beds were very comfortable and the showers were great.
The crowning jewel was their breakfast buffet!! I would stay again just for that.
Thoroughly enjoyable stay.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The location was great. There were plenty of bus stops and train stations nearby, making it very convenient.
As I had heard, the breakfast was very good.
It was disappointing that the sauna and pool were under renovation. I was really looking forward to using them, so I wish this had been clearly stated as an important notice at the time of booking.
The yoga mats in the gym were quite dirty, which was also disappointing.

Everything was great room clean, tasty breakfast, good location
This is a terrific, and very central hotel in Helsinki. Kiasma Museum and the Moomin shop (as well as lots of other shopping, museums, and great cafes and restaurants) are a quick walk.
The hotel itself is clean, well-cared for, with good breakfasts. Highly recommend bringing a swimsuit for the pool and sauna.
Staff are all super friendly and helpful!
It was AMAZING! 10/10, VIP Sauna was the best, we highly recommend renting if you have a party of 5+. Thank you to the overgenerous staff for all they did. We hope to visit here again!
It had been a long time since I had stayed here and I had a wonderful time.
The room was clean, the breakfast was delicious and the view from the restaurant was fantastic, and the front desk staff were friendly.
The price is higher than the hotels in the area, but I am glad I chose this hotel.
We liked everything, nothing bad to say!
Perfect location, lovely staff everywhere, very clean, beautiful and spacious room, nice sauna and pool.
Highly recommended!
Special thanks to the lovely girls in the breakfast room who gave one of us a cake for his 50th bitrhday. That was much appreciated!
Positive points- excellent location, clean, comfortable, competitive pricing, small but well equipped gym. Negative points- breakfast hall like a school canteen, tables crammed together, food poor. Swimming pool (and sauna) only open mornings till 10 am and evenings 5-9.30, receptionist could not explain why (we understand about the sauna). Broken light in room not fixed during our stay and took 2 days to get lamp.
Parking space is tricky and narrow for bigger vehicles. Room was tidy and had the necessities. The shower pressure could have been better, there was some dust in the coffee cups. Breakfast was lovely and you have a wide choice of restaurants near by.
