What a great location! The hotel is directly opposite the train station to the airport, as well as beside the metro & trams to other parts of Helsinki. It's within walking distance to many food options, shopping, cafes & more. The room was very spacious, comfortable and the breakfast was wonderful as well. The staff were friendly and helpful to answer any questions I had. Would gladly stay here again the next time I'm in Helsinki!

The hotel is conveniently located near Helsinki Central Station, right in the heart of the city, making it an excellent base for sightseeing and shopping. The interior design of the hotel is stylish and calming, allowing for a relaxing and comfortable stay. Breakfast is served at the restaurant on the 10th floor, where you can enjoy a wide variety of delicious dishes along with a stunning view. Even if you stay for several days, the breakfast remains enjoyable and satisfying. I would especially recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Helsinki for the first time.
