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!

What a great hotel with an amazing history! It used to be a jail and now is a modern hotel but they kept the character from the past. The breakfast and dinner buffets were great and it was nice not to have to go out and find places to eat every meal. The staff was amazing and I would definitely stay here again.

We love the history, the renovations, the food, the staff, the location…the list goes on! Such a great choice for our first trip to Helsinki. Easily walkable to sites, food and drink…but off the beaten path and offering such a unique place to sleep (an old prison). We would definitely come back!
