The hotel is just beautiful. Every single detail was thought about from the fireplace, decor and the iPads in each room that control everything. We stayed in a one bedroom suite with a gorgeous bathroom and could not have been happier. It is a 10-15 minute walk from the center and we loved the location.

This was an amazing experience. It was the first hotel we stayed at on our EU vacation. Nothing has even compared to this hotel. I cannot say enough about how incredible it is. Only issue was getting lost in the hotel. A little map would be great but honestly we always figured it out and we saw a lot of the space while lost. 100/10, amazing!

Best Hotel in Helsinki

Hotel is top notch, the smart system is amazing to control the room amenities, the staff were so friendly and helpful, Linda in particular was restless in making our stay memorable in Helsinki, the only things I would complain about are limited choices of in room dining and the Resturant, breakfast buffet verity and the spa limitation e.g. booking for specific time because it doesn’t fit large number of guests , and the fact that it’s additional price for the stay, although I understand the reason behind the extra price it’s best to enlarge the spa so that everyone can enjoy whenever they want, other than that hotel is 5 star + , thanks for having us

Excellent place to stay.

Hotel Maria was amazing. The beds were perfect and it was dead silent at night, so we slept perfectly after a red eye flight. The service was fantastic. Love how you can control everything from a tablet they provide. The minibar was also great and not insanely priced (all alcohol in Finland is expensive). The restaurant was excellent. And the cocktails we had at the bar were amazing. Maybe the best Old Fashioned I've ever had. The gym was great. Had it to myself 2 days in a row. We had 2 tiny issues. Our shower drain was clogged when we arrived. They fixed it right away while we had dinner. We were told breakfast ends at 11. We missed the first breakfast because we were so jet lagged. The next day (Monday) we went down at 10:05 and were told breakfast ended at 10. For some reason breakfast ends early on weekdays. I don't understand since people on vacation probably aren't paying attention to the day of the week. At least I don't.
