I didn't like the bathroom, when you shower the water spreads everywhere and the drain smells a little. It is an old building but well maintained. The reception staff is helpful and very nice. Breakfast is amazing with many options.

The rest of the hotel is being updated. The current rooms were sufficient. We did love the private sauna in the hotel! The rooms were very basic and there was a strange smell. But we slept fine. I think it will be much better with some updates.

Location is great and very central, all of 5 minutes walk from the train station and in a quiet area.

Näkymämme oli takapihan toisella puolella mutta vaimoni ja minä emme aikoneet viettää oleskeluamme huoneessa, joten se ei ole todellinen menetys. Hotelli sijaitsee kätevällä paikalla Helsingin keskustassa (lähellä on metro ja raitiovaunupysäkkejä Henkilökunta oli kohteliasta ja tehokasta. Aamiainen oli tyypillinen pohjoismainen buffet runsaasti valinnanvaraa jopa nirsoimmalle syöjälle! (Alkuperäinen The Hotel room was comfortable and spacious. Our view was across the rear courtyard but my wife and I weren't going to spend our stay in the room so it's no real loss. The hotel is conveniently located for central Helsinki (there are metro and tram stops nearby Staff were courteous and efficient. Breakfast was typical Nordic buffet plenty of choice even for the pickiest of eaters!

Superb location a few blocks from the main Helsinki train station. Staff super friendly and very welcoming.

Overall, decent hotel though pricey for what you get. Reminds me a lot of a Motel 6 in the US. Room cleanliness was ok but left a lot to be desired. Found hair in the sheets and lint on the floor that I had to sweep up before putting my stuff down. Only 2 pillows that seemed old and had lost their support. Bed was ok though worn and noticeably sank leaned towards the center of the mattress : Walls were thin and could definitely hear the neighbors on both sides. Bathroom was functional though really weird setup where the sink drained into an open drain vs closed pipe) and no floor separation for the shower so water spilled out onto the bathroom floor underneath the shower curtain. Additionally, you can definitely hear the city noise from outside all hours of the night. Double paned windows but didn't really seem to help.
