Clean rooms, helpful staff, convenient central location, incredible breakfast buffet — possibly the best in Helsinki. Only minus is that rooms on lower floors can get night noise from the busy commercial street.

Everything worked as expected

One night stay. Good location in the Helsinki centrum. Hotel room with king sized bed, three options for pillow, no hand towels - nothing wrong, nothing special, good standard. Breakfast buffet had quite good variety. Rating is based on cost and expectations.
