Lovely hotel in central Helsinki with very friendly staff and an excellent buffet. The only point I would make is that perhaps certain parts of the room I was staying in could've done with a little more attention - dust on top shelves etc. Bathroom was spotless!

Wonderful And Economical Place To Stay in Helsinki

I enjoyed my stay here very much. The location is great - close to downtown, close to the ferry terminal, close to transit. The staff is very friendly and helpful - will call you a taxi if you need one. The free breakfast buffet is extensive with choices for every single taste - you’d probably have to pay at least 20 euros somewhere else. The room was comfortable and there was a nice Finnish sauna. The only thing is that if you are going to be there for more than one day, you need to arrange for housekeeping, as apparently they don’t automatically clean the rooms each day. But I would definitely stay here again and recommend it!

Correct stay, nice staff, place to be updated.

Stay Ok, not amazing, as there are a few equipments/services that needs to be updated. A bit cold in the room, where the AC makes a bit of noise when working. Staff attending really nice, best of the hotel I think.
