A stunning hotel which belies the good price. Within easy walking distance of the main city and with plenty of places to visit or eat. Hotel room is extremely spacious and comfortable. Service was fantastic and breakfast super to start the day. Within walking distance of the Ferry Port.

Good price for a good hotel.
Nice hotel with a gym, a bar and a restaurant. Friendly and helpful staff. Parking just outside, (with a fee). Close to the city center and located at the beautiful Katajanokka. Breakfast is good too!

Great location and lovely service
Lovely hotel, great location, nice room. We were able to check in early by upgrading slightly and got a great size room. Sauna nice, bar busy on Sat eve with good choice of beer, Sun eve quiet but reception served cans. Amazing buffet breakfast selection. After check out, we left our luggage securely and borrowed bikes for free. Great service, only negative was that the cleaners did not change our coffee mugs or replenish milk etc, but reception sorted that out immediately.

Located near the docks, the hotel is in a quiet area. It is close to many places of interest and lots of dining options.
Clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

The room as such was exactly I asked. Simple, practical and neat. The bathroom was missing the shower door, meaning the toilet had wet floor. Two pillows might be a good idea to improve the convenience.
The biggest concern for late arrivals was the lack of parking lots. The advice of using the “stadi way” is not too helpful meaning “keep on circulating until you find a free one”. When tapping “parking” amid reserving the room, I got no advice what so ever.

This is a nice place to stay and about a 15 minute walk to Helsinki central. It’s close to the port and there are a few tourist attractions around although there are limited options for dining in the immediate area. The room is fairly basic but comfortable.

The staff were lovely, the location was good. Breakfast was tasty and the sauna was great.
We noticed when the bedsheet came away on the final night that the mattress topper was quote marked and dirty which was a bit disappointing but we were really happy with the rest of the hotel.
