The best concept of hotel systems where you check yourself in without staff which is more convenient and freedom, the price is reasonable and very close to all the attractions. Highly recommended.

The hotel is modern and impeccably clean and comfortable, with beds and blankets that are so hard to get out of. There’s a self check in and out function without any staff around, but there’s a host office right beside these machines and the staff are always very helpful. The dining area is cosy without crowds, providing a microwave, dishes, utensils, coffee, all for occupants’ use anytime. The staff even wash these items for us so we could just help ourselves to what we need, so even though the room had no kitchen amenities, having a fully equipped one right downstairs made the stay feel like home. The hotel is a little off the city centre but is just above a metro station and has many tram and bus numbers to get to the city in 10 minutes. It’s also walkable, around 20-30 minutes depending on which part of the centre. We were very happy with our stay!

Accessible and affordable hotel in Helsinki

New, modern, comfortable hotel, 15 mins walk to the Helsinki centre and main sights. Airport is also reasonably accessible (metro/walk + train). The checkin is done via computers, you can request room service, luggage storage without any extra fee. In the lobby you have kitchen with fridges, microwaves, co-working tables with electric sockets, TV/cinema, very stable and fast wifi throughout the hotel. Good stay for one night or few days.

The accommodation is clean and quiet. The rooms are big enough. There is tea and coffee amenities downstairs, along with a tv, ping pong table and seating to eat downstairs. Its a 20 minute walk to downtown Helsinki for all the sights, bars and restaurants.
