“Nice hotel with Super location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 5, 2012

This hotel has a perfect and convenient location in the city center, facing the railway station & the bus station (to & from airport). My husband and I found it very easy to explore the city from the hotel, walking of course. And the hotel was very quiet though trains are just at the back of it.

Room was beautifully designed, not spacious but convenient enough. Beds and pillows were comfy.

Staff were helpful. We had smooth check in & out. And there was free wifi in the room and lobby with a 24h or 12h username and password, which we got from reception.

“Next to the congress centre, but noisy at street side”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed December 2, 2012

This is a typical Holiday Inn, friendly staff, and a standard restaurant. The rooms are hot and dry and if you open the windows (only a little is possible) there's a lot of noice if your room has a street view. So always ask for an inside view, not a street room. prices are OK, taxis plenty in front. Nothing fancy, but it is OK.

“Fine for a short business trip.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed December 1, 2012

Good location for the airport bus as it drops off straight in front of hotel. Room was clean if not a little bit dated. Lots of construction going on around the hotel at the time. Quite expensive for what you get, but this is Helsinki!

“Very Convenient Location & Good Service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 13, 2012

This Holiday Inn was very comfortable and extremely well located. It is next door to the railway station and the airport bus is only a few metres from the front door. The main bus station is only a few blocks away..Finland is great for modern design so it was also great that a wonderful museum of modern art was only a short walk. I found the staff very helpful and had one pleasant meal in the restaurant. I did not have breakfast in the hotel but walked around the neighbourhood and enjoyed finding interesting Finnish treats to eat for breakfast. I was there at the end of May and it was fun seeing the locals all enjoying sitting in outdoor cafes near the hotel in the late evening sun. I loved Helsinki and if I go back I will stay here again.

“Ideal Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 8, 2012

We only stayed one night, as we were travelling home via Helsinki from our enjoyable stay in Tallinn. The hotel is very centrally located near the Railway Station. It was ideally placed for us as the connection to both the Tallinn Ferry (tram 9) and the airport (Finnair shuttle bus) was so facile and efficient.
