3 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 April 2013

Hotel itself is rather basic, and single room I booked was tiny but comfortable. The fact that the rooms are situated on the upper floor of a bar gives the place some charactor, and does not really give any noise problems. For sensitive sleepers the rooms facing onto the main road can be a little noisy however, but personally I... More

I loved the hotel very much as it's in core of Helsinki. Small city hotel with proffessinal Staff with excellent customer service skills. Enjoyed every moment in Helsinki. Usually when i feedback i always specify the most negatives unfortunately i dont find any negativeness.

We arrived on a freezing afternoon of Dec 23rd. The city was preparing for Christmas and there was 30cm of fresh snow everywhere. Having come from the tropics it was all super exotic and lovely. We caught the Finnair bus from the airport to central station and then walked the 8 mins to the hotel. Check in was very easy,... More

I stayed in single room, which was one of the smallest rooms I have ever been. Despite this, room didn't feel narrow, windows were big with nice view to the street. Bathroom was renovated quite lately and everything were in order. Kaisaniemi metrostation is very close and coffees and bars very close as well. The only mistake that staff made... More

The hotel is good, location is very central. Breakfast is ok, but not very rich. There are a lot of bars and cafes near the hotel! I recomend you to have dinner in vapiano. Rooms are clean, stuff is very very friendly!

The name should be worst westerns. This hotel was over $200 a night, the bed was way too soft, the room had no ventilation and very warm and it was very small. Staff was nice and breakfast was good, but this hotel is significantly overpriced.

I think they are renovating, but my room was quite shabby. Only 12 rooms, and they all face traffic. Good thing I took a full shower in Milan the night before since the shower was impossible to figure out. The Finnair bus stops right in front of the Holiday Inn.I would suggest that instead. Its a little bit of a... More

This hotel's location can't be beat--but I wish there were more floors, allowing the traveler to stay higher up and away from the street. Nonetheless, street noise was NOT an issue. The breakfast buffet is excellent, and the timing of the buffet works well for the traveler taking trains. There is no sauna. The wifi is spotty at best. Although... More

I had no issue with the hotel during the stay, however the hotel double charged me for my one night stay. I contacted the reception and they advised me to send an email which i promptly did they...

I have walked past of this property hundreds of times without realizing that there is an hotel. All hotels in Helsinki were fully booked during my visit and I was lucky to get a room here. Based on the reviews, it seems that rooms are differenly shaped and the equipment vary a little bit. In my room (220) there was... More
