Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were stylish and high quality, especially the warm and luxurious bathroom. However, there were broken lamps, and the room was located right above the trash bins. The service was incredibly warm and attentive, with just a tiny issue of them being overly efficient at clearing plates. The location was perfect, just across from Stockman shopping mall and within walking distance to all the sights. The dining experience was super, offering a wide variety of food, juices, and coffee. Overall, a stylish and convenient stay with a few hiccups.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, but lacking tea/coffee facilities and a bit noisy when the window was open at night. The service was outstanding and very friendly. The location was superb, close to a mall and the city center. The dining experience was amazing, offering a great variety of dishes. Overall, a great value for money.

The dining experience offered a variety of delicious foods, but the facilities lacked soundproofing and had hidden issues like a dripping noise behind a false wall.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was great, near all the must-visit places in Helsinki, but it was extremely crowded in the mornings. The service was exceptional, with incredibly helpful and friendly staff. The dining experience was incredible with a wide variety of fresh choices, but a bit expensive. The rooms, although ready, were small and not very comfortable due to their location in the other building and twin beds with a column in between.
The hotel rooms were lovely, clean, modern, and really stylish. However, be aware that some rooms have no windows. Despite the stylish decor, I experienced an issue with a hidden dripping noise behind a false illuminated wall, which affected my sleep comfort.
