Next to the train station so great location. Steps up to the main entrance are the only drawback but there is an entrance/exit through the courtyard. Very grand and very clean. Breakfast is excellent with choices for everyone.

Whenever I stop over Helsinki, I stay at this hotel.
The room is clean, breakfast is awesome you can have variety of food. It would be great if there would be a kettle and coffee cups in the room and a bath tab.
