Greatest hotel room I've ever stayed in

This was the greatest hotel room I've ever stayed in. Large, clean, well-designed, comfortable, plenty of space to hang clothes and open our suitcases - I can't say enough good things about it. Excellent location - close to everything you need including the tram. The lobby bar was actually lively and had good beers, along with some late night snacks. A good hotel to come "home" to after a day of adventures.

Great value!!! I had a huge, gorgeous and well designed room with so much natural light, and then the delicious breakfast every day. It was probably the best value for a hotel in Europe I’ve had in a long time. Great space, clean, friendly staff, lovely breakfast (and the breakfast area is also very clean and well designed!). I would stay here again every time. Loved it!!!

The hotel is in a great location, very well designed and has a really nice bar downstairs to hang out in. Breakfast is excellent. Only criticism was the bedroom didn’t have much storage space for clothes - but wasn’t a problem as we were only there for a night.

This is our second summer staying at Hobo Helsinki. One of the best hotels we have stayed in our lives. Free breakfast is exquisite. The location is right where the action is. Stores, bars, clubs and museums are walking distance. Super clean. The staff is very kind, friendly and professional. I travel with my two boys and stayed in a double full beds room. Highly recommended.
