Pros:

Outstanding breakfast. I was on a business trip and had little time to do things. The staff were very helpful in making sure I got what I needed in the most efficient way. Their restaurant is quite nice. I ate there more than once after long days. Service and food are both excellent.

Overall very pleased with our stay and would definitely go back again!
Pros:

Great location, beautiful design, kind and friendly staff, delicious breakfast restaurant. The rooms were spacious and quiet, clean bathroom with a really nice shower.

Cons:

The curtains didn’t fully block out the light which made falling asleep during the summer a bit challenging.

Cons:

Kommer altid til Helsinki tidligt om morgenen, og helt naturligt tager jeg på hotellet som det første.
I receptionen bliver jeg mødt af ‘du kan ikke tjekke ind før kl. 15’
Javel ja, et venligt godmorgen ville have klædt servicen
