The property is in an excellent location with great facilities for families. In particular, the children enjoyed table tennis, playing board games and visiting the gym. The breakfast buffet was also very good each morning.

Hobo Helsinki......great location and comfortable!

Our family of 4 found Hobo Helsinki to be in a great location near train central station and major shopping area and tourist spots. The hotel is vibrant and has a good young vibe. We enjoyed the bountiful breakfast though we wished it would open up earlier possibly on week days from 8am to 7:30am or sooner. Room relatively clean and comfortable, though our room for 4 had a open bathroom concept for the shower so just be aware. A box of kleenex would be helpful as well. Overall, we would stay here again.

Good points - the hotel is very central, walking distance from the main railway station, public transport, shopping area, central tourist attractions. The hotel room was spacious and very quiet - despite various functions taking place elsewhere in the building. The staff were helpful, and breakfast was good quality and plentiful. Downsides - the room was kind of style over substance. Apart from a rail and a few coat hangers there was nowhere to put clothes. Basically all you could do was leave your suitcase on the floor and open it - not a terribly comfortable way of doing things. The room was also rather warm, though to their credit the reception staff did something about this as soon as we mentioned it.
