"The hotel receptionist circled on a map where the sauna was I had booked. I had arrived at 4am and didn’t confirm where he circled. He sent me to the wrong place and I lost my $225 as I missed appt and you require 24 hours to cancel. I usually use Google Maps but delayed flight has me arriving at 4am and I was sleep deprived. The spa guide was not happy. Oh well lesson learned."

Scandic Grand Central Helsinki

Scandic Grand Central Helsinki

10/10 Excellent
"The Scandic Grand Central Helsinki is wonderfully situated next to the central railway station making an international flight to Helsinki airport (for which the railway station is situated beneath the terminals) and the subsequent journey into the city an absolute breeze (download and use the HSL app too). Check-in was straightforward with staff very polite and helpful. There is a breakfast restaurant situated near to reception (which I didn't use) and a very nice bar and terrace restaurant (which I did use) and which serves very good food and a wide variety of drinks. The hotel maintains an art-deco theme and a walk along the corridors felt a bit like being back in a different era. The room was very well appointed. It was a generous size with all the amenities I needed and the walk-in shower was fantastic. Toiletries were provided and replaced if necessary meaning less to have to carry. The hotel is a beautiful building situated conveniently to walk into the heart of Helsinki. I would happily stay here again."
