Thoroughly enjoyed my stay.
Pros:

Great location just a short walk from the central market, sightseeing boats and bus, Helsinki Flyer and the sauna/swim experience.

Cons:

I had to pay €5 for a kettle that never arrived and ended up using the hot water from the coffee machine. On checkout they did not charge me for the kettle.

Un bâtiment grandiose pour un hôtel magnifique
Pros:

Hôtel très agréable dans un ancien bâtiment entièrement restauré.
Tout est vu dans le détail. Ambiance moderne et chaleureuse en même temps. Très confortable !
Le petit déjeuner est très complet, vous y trouverez tout ce dont vous aurez besoin.
Pour ce qui est du port à proximité, vous le rejoindrez en 5 minutes à pied à peine.

Cons:

Les tarifs du bar le soir sont assez élevés...

Satunnainen matkailija.
Pros:

Sijainti. Henkilökunta. Hinta.

Cons:

Remontista jonka haitoista ei ollut tietoa etukäteen. Huoneessa ei ollut pyyhkeitä, ikävä lähteä märkänä suihkun jälkeen etsiskelemään. Huone ei erityisen siisti, ja sitä piti odottaa turhan pitkään. Tyynyt. WC:n käsisuihkua ei ollut.
Viihdyin silti, remontti valmis? Tulen toistekin.

Pros:

Понравилось расположение, близко к терминалу, где у меня был паром. Большая уютная комната. Есть сауна, правда другие гости её слишком сильно разогревали. Термометр там уже тупо не работал. Завтрак не особо богатый, но мне было достаточно.

Cons:

Процесс чек-ина каким-то долгим показался. К отелю особо не относиться, но переплатил за номер в 2 раза из-за того, что поздно бронировал.
