The location was excellent. The room was comfortable and tidy. I was however very much disturbed by the everywhere present smell of food. The room, eventually my cloths and hair all smelled of food. It was like living in a busy kitchen. It turned out that the neighboring restaurant was using the stairway for letting out the smells coming from... More

We spend 2 nights in Hellsten Parliament with our family. This is a hotel that feels no hotel; you are at home. For those people who have spend enough nights in standard hotel rooms Hellsten is a breath of fresh air: it feels like your very own city apartment. Our family (2 adults, 2 teenagers) liked the apartment. We had... More

The hotel is in a convenient and quiet location near the National Museum, Finlandia Hall and the Chrystal Church. It is in an old renovated building built by a famous Finnish architect and it is a listed building. The rooms are very spacious and there was a kitchenette, so I could cater for myself, and do my own breakfast. I... More

This is located near to the National Museum and the tram station. It is about 2 stop away from the main train station. The main train station is where the airport express bus will drop you so it is very convenient to get to the hotel after you are being let off at the train station. The buses at the... More

I very much enjoyed my stay at this Hotel. The room was more like an apartment which made it more enjoyable for my Fiancée and I. Nice high ceilings and pretty good size so we did not feel too confined. Atmosphere was very quiet and the receptionists were very warm and accommodating. Unlike most hotels there was a flat top...

The bad: 1) I was next to the elevator and hardly slept the first night as people were constantly in and out until 3 am (it was Saturday night). Everytime they used the the lift it started with a loud bang, you... More

We came to Helsinki only because that's where our Frequent Flyer seats landed us. But we were pleasantly surprised by Helsinki - it was beautiful and we could have stayed there longer. Our travel agent put us in Hellsten Helsinki Parliment which was in a nice central location. It was about a 40EU cab ride from the airport. The Qantas... More

Dont bother to check in on sundays unless you are prepared to be your own housekeeping and reception because there is no on duty front desk on sundays. If u have any inquiries or something is not right with your room then u are stuck in a rut. I had a torrid time asking for towels as there was not... More

In Helsinki for a week I wanted more than just a hotel room. At the recommendation of a previous reviewer I asked for a studio overlooking the park. Great advice. Located on the 4th floor my studio apartment looked out at the tree tops and what blss to be able to have the window open at night with no noise.... More
