I wish it was November.

The hotel would be amazing if it was so hot in Helsinki this week. I reserved a superior double with a king bed. It was a large, beautifully decorated room that was hot and humid. Ugh! I never checked if it had air-conditioning. I know that they don't need it most of the year, but even with the fan I got from the front desk, it was terribly hot. The windows don't open. It was hard to sleep if you are sweaty. Other than that, everything else waa great. Breakfast was excellent and dinner was a great savings for the long vacation we were on. There is a tram right outside to take you wherever you wanted to go. I would stay her again at a cooler time of year.

They have a problem with little or no air conditioning in the rooms and you cannot open the windows. Also, the refrigerator was non-functioning. Also, parking requires a permit from the city and the hotel does not tell you that. Found that out the hard way with a ticket on the windshield.

I have travelled the world extensively for over 6 decades and have very rarely come across such an incredibly good value for money place as this hotel and one where the staff are happy to accommodate your requests and do so with a smile. There is an included breakfast (7am to 10am), afternoon tea (3pm to 5pm) and dinner (6pm to 8pm). This is a full of character place which is extremely well located. Tram 4 drops you right at its doorstep.

Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. We appreciated the option to have our room cleaned at our own chosen schedule. Really good buffet breakfast and dinner included. Interesting history as a former prison facility, now very nicely converted to a comfortable hotel. Convenient location, just a short walk to the ferry terminal if you are taking a side trip to Tallinn or other cities), and not too far from the city center; about a mile to the railroad station.

Is it strange to say a stay in a former prison was comfortable and convenient? This hotel is a gem. Very helpful and friendly staff. Easy to find, very walkable and steps to public transport. The option to enjoy daily Fika and a nightly meal on site were a nice touch.

A great location for anybody visiting the city as a tourist. The tram stop at the entrance brings you to the centre (but it's a easy 10 min walk) and also will bring you to the ferry terminal, the main train station to change for the airport. Staff were friendly, room was very comfortable, high quality linens and bed, very quiet at night (built in soundproofing due to being an old building). Breakfast and dinner was included and it was great and good value too. Would certainly stay again.
