    A fair review – pros and cons

    The staff was extremely friendly and helpful! My room was comfortable, clean, and spacious. The sauna was a delightful treat. Perfect location for concert-goers near the Böle Arena!

    The breakfast system needs improvement. congestion and running out of items caused frustration. I encountered long wait times during check-in, which detracted from my experience. Noise from adjacent rooms was also a minor inconvenience.

    overcrowded dining area
    unauthorized sauna access

    I faced significant issues during my stay. The breakfast service on Sunday was a complete disaster. the dining area was overcrowded and many items ran out frequently. when I raised concerns with staff about the children's unauthorized presence in the women’s sauna, no action was taken during my four-night visit, making for a very uncomfortable experience.

    fantastic

    would like to stay longer

    The standard room was very comfortable, with air conditioning, a coffee machine, and a private bathroom. I loved the soundproofing and the flat-screen TV. The sauna was fantastic, and the fitness centre was well equipped. I appreciated the free toiletries and the complimentary water. Breakfast had a great variety and quality too.

    impressive breakfast selection
    slow elevator

    The location was perfect with near access to public transport, making it easy to explore. The facilities were top-notch, especially the well-equipped gym which was great for unwinding after a night out. Plus, the breakfast selection was impressive and catered to various dietary needs.

    The elevator service seemed a bit slow during peak times, which was slightly inconvenient.

    nice amenities
    comfortable experience
    industrial surroundings

    The upgraded room on the top floor had nice amenities like a bathrobe and a Nespresso machine, making for a comfortable experience. The hotel provides good facilities for conferences, being directly connected to the expo center.

    The surroundings aren't pretty, presenting an industrial view that's uninspiring. The breakfast cost is steep—24 euros per person, and finding vegetarian options alongside meat can be a hassle. There have been issues with room maintenance, like missing minibar items and inadequate staff attention to cleanliness in previous stays.

    comfortable beds

    It was just a nice choice for a brief stopover in Helsinki with very good value for money. The rooms and beds are extremely comfortable, making it easy to get a good night's sleep. Make sure to grab a quick breakfast as it’s decent, but avoid dining at the hotel restaurant unless you really have to.

    noisy rooms
    breakfast item shortages

    The room was modern and comfortable, complete with effective air conditioning and reliable Wi-Fi. A highlight was the delicious breakfast, which had an impressive selection, though I noticed items ran out during peak times. Location-wise, the hotel is well-connected to public transport, making it easy to reach concert venues. elevator service could improve, as there were instances of waiting for longer than expected during busy hours. there was some noticeable noise from nearby rooms, which could detract from an otherwise peaceful environment.
