I appreciated the design aesthetic for my small but comfy room. It had everything you'd want without feeling cramped even tho there wasn't a lot of space. The hotel overall is well designed. Breakfast had everything you'd want. Service was mostly very good, friendly and helpful. Only down side is internet was bothersome. Dropping sometimes every few minutes. You must sign into a http website and with normal security settings on you'll have to add their http (NOT https) site to your okay'd list or you won't be able to reconnect. A pain. Location is easy walking distance to Market Square and other downtown locations or easy to get to taking Tram 6 from central train station.

Dear Cyndy,

Thank you for our kind review of the Original Sokos Hotel Albert.
I am delighted that you liked the design and the service. Your feedback has been forwarded to the staff. Regarding the free WiFi; you choose the HotelGuestWlan named network from the WiFi menu and enter the generic user name and password given by the Front Desk. Usually works very well. The Front Desk is glad to help with this.

We hope to see you as our guest again in the near future!

Best regards,
Martin Andergard
General Manager

The hotel was cosy, no unnecessary big halls or corridors. The staff was very friendly and early breakfast (juice, rolls, coffee) was served even we left before the official breakfast time. The rooms were personally styled (nice wallpaper), the bathroom was big enough. The bar was very cosy with bookshelves on the wall - like being in real living room

Just had a 2 nights stay at Albert, and we were very pleased. The room was great, very cosy. Bed was very good, and so was the pillow. We slept like a log!
Also the sevice was very good, nice staff.
Location is just perfect! Very easy to explore the city, and the neighbourhood is very nice with lots of good restaurants. We will be back!

This is a basic hotel and I don't have any complaints. The room was clean and nice with working wifi. The bed was good and I slept there like a baby. I've seen breakfasts with more options, but Albert had more than enough to start my day. The staff was friendly and funny. Location is nice, because the street is quiet but it is still quite close to city center.

All and all, I had a pleasant stay!

Nice hotel with a good & central location in Helsinki, with reasonable price compared to many alternatives. I would choose this again over many competitors which have premium price but with little - if any - additional benefits but back it up.

Clean & quiet, spacy rooms, calm atmosphere on the yard side. Very close - but far enough :) - enough of e.g. Helsinki's nightlife district around Iso-Roobertinkatu. A block away from good shopping on Fredrikinkatu and alike.

Room tip: Ask for a room on the yard side
