This hotel is absolutely fantastic! Its location in the center of Helsinki is perfect for walking to many, many of the "must-see" sights such as the Lutheran Cathedral, Uspenski, the open market, Esplanade, train station, government buildings, museums, shopping and more.
The hotel itself is immaculate; the furnishings are all in "like new" condition; the staff is curteous with a geniune desire to be helpful.
The restaurant where breakfast is served is wonderful. The breakfast is plentiful with many food items to choose from including eggs cooked in a couple different ways, bacon, saugages, cold cuts, cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, fresh fruit, cereals, and a large array of breads, pastries and cookies. We ate dinner in the same restaurant one evening and loved it so much we wanted to go back again the next evening only to discover that it's closed on Sunday nights. Bummer!
The only downside? Having to leave! If I ever return to Helsinki, choosing a hotel will be a no-brainer. It's this one!
