Property is amazing. Unique and historical history. Beautiful room and so quiet! Full breakfast buffet, afternoon snack and hot dinner were included with my booking. We only ate breakfast, but it was excellent. Staff is great too. Friendly and helpful. I'd love to stay here again in the future.

Home hotel Katajanokka was a great find in Helsinki. It was a very interesting hotel because of its history as a former prison but it has been given modern rooms and communal areas so it is now a stylish place to stay. Breakfast was excellent in quality and choice every day and the light evening meal we also had once and that was good too. The hotel is just a 10min walk into the centre of Helsinki, with the marina even closer. I would not hesitate to stay here again if I return to Finland.

Very interesting property that is well presented. We were grateful that our ground floor request was provided. The property does have a lift so if your mobility is restricted it should not be a problem. Breakfast and dinner were very nice. Well presented. The tram is right outside. Staff friendly and very helpful. Location is a bit out of the central area but not a problem with the tram

Lovely hotel, don’t actually know it used to be a prison. It’s been renovated so well. Spacious rooms, comfortable beds, lovey to have a bath as well as a shower in the bathroom. Delicious buffet breakfasts and dinner included. Only issue was that we felt the rooms should have been given a clean every day. However, really enjoyed our stay.

The hotel is located in Katajanokka ,a great part of Helsinki. The tram is outside the hotel wall. Short walk to the harbor and cruise ship The Viking Line. The hotel itself is a historical site . A refurbished prison . It was our first time staying there but we have family who stayed there few times few years ago. It has claustrophobic feel at the small lobby and in the guest rooms because the windows are high and small can’t be reached or opened. Our room had a very small low window. The breakfast and dinner area was extremely dark . Literally being in a prison.

Loved the building’s history. Unmistakably a former prison but amazingly transformed whilst retaining the original character. One slight negative are the dining facilities. Confusing layout and chaotically crowded at times.

The location was on an island and only a 20 minute walk to the city center. Great location, however, the room was very hot and we were not allowed to open the windows. Breakfast, a light snack between 3-5 pm is served, plus dinner is included. That is served between 6-8 every night. The breakfast was the best part.

Due to a change in flights, we arrived super late (11pm) and had a short turn-around leaving at 4am the following morning. We didn't get to enjoy the property as intended, but the overnight desk staff person packed up a special breakfast brown bag to go for us - so thoughtful and the attention to detail and customer service that we seek when we choose accommodations!
