A really nice well presented hotel. It is in an an absolutely ideal location for the city especially if your are arriving by the ferry. very walkable into the city and it's sites with many eateries and a decent sized grocery shop very close by. The staff went above and beyond when I thought that I had lost my phone (under my bed in the end) being extremely helpful and patient and it was solely due to their help that I recovered my phone. On our last day our ferry didn't leave until late afternoon and we were able to store out bags in the hotel luggage room with ease. Overall a very pleasant experience I would highly recommend Hotel Fabian to any one visiting Helsinki.

Hotel's Favorite
I stayed in hotel Fabian July 2022, and it was a lovely experience. The location of the hotel was great, however there currently is large scale construction opposite the hotel. I was generally up and away by the time the construction started so it didn’t bother me in the morning, and the soundproofing of the building was adequate. The breakfast included in the room was lovely, with fresh fruit, smoothies and juices. It felt like a healthy breakfast with a good variety to choose from. I used the mini fridge during my stay, which is on the pricey side, as are all establishments in Helsinki city centre (All prices are clearly stated in the room, though) - if you want to buy cheaper alcohol there is a Alko shop next to Hotel Fabian. There is also a grocery story just next to the hotel, on the side of Kasarmitori. The hotel is also very close to all the sights one would want to visit, such as Esplandinpuisto, Kauppatori - where boats leave to Korkeasaari (Zoo) and Soumenlinna (military fortress island). Senaatin Tori is also close, where you can see the famous Tuomionkirkko church. Electric scooters are readily available and you can also quickly get to sites like the famous Oodi Library. On my final day I was very hungover and the staff kindly arranged for late check-out, and the service was friendly - with everyone being able to accommodate me speaking English. Apologies to the two young girls in the morning for having to deal with my very hungover checkout, haha! Thanks for the stay, I will probably stay here again next time I visit Helsinki :) I forgot to take photos of the room, but this is one showing the nice design in the entrance and large mirrors, and a good amount of storage in the cupboards - the room also had a desk and mirror in front of it which was useful for doing one’s hair, the bathroom also had a plug for hair styling equipment and had a hair dryer available.…

I chose this hotel because it was the most reasonable in that specific area and close to the Allas Seapool - one of THE most wonderful swimming pools in the world. I had a magical day, staff at the hotel were able to check me in early, everything was spotless and charming

We stayed in Fabian hotel for one night. The hotel was beautiful and welcoming and the stuff was helpful and nice. We had Comfort room (which is the smallest option from hotel's rooms), but it was spacious and stylish. The breakfast selection is not that wide but enough to eat tasty food. The only thing that I did not like was the cleanliness of bathroom with some extra hair in the shower from the previous guest. But I don't think it is a regular thing in Fabian because everything else was clean. Overall, we had very pleasant stay and I would come back!

Dear LadyM, Thank you for visiting us and for writing this review. I am happy to read that you enjoyed your stay with us. if you have more information that could be useful to discuss with the housekeeping team, it would be good if you reached out directly to us. stay dates, room number etc. could be useful for us fallow up bathroom cleanliness topic. It looks like a human error as you say. Have a great day and I thank you for the feedback, It is highly appreciated when we maintain and develop our services. Warmly welcome back again.

Fabian is surely well located to visit Helsinki. The rooms are well appointed and the beds are very comfortable. I can also comment on the fact that the noise insulation is optimal, and rooms are very quiet. On the aspect to be improved, the housekeeping service seems to be weak. I would also suggest to put a tea/coffee facility in the rooms, this is a basic type of amenity ! Globally a good value for money for the three nights stay before Christmas.

Excellent 2-night stay. Super friendly and helpful staff. Large twin-bed room. Comfortable bed. Clean. Wonderful sleep. Excellent complimentary Wi-Fi. Seemed to be mostly business travelers during my mid-December visit which made for a nice, calm experience (much appreciated.) Simple but ample breakfast - quality instead of quantity - but all you need. Lots of healthy options, including gluten-free and vegan. Loved the ginger shots and smoothies! The lady working the breakfast shift was doing a million things at the same time - clearing tables, re-stocking supplies, brewing coffee - yet always smiling. Fantastic location. Easy 15-minute walk to/from the train station. My new "go to" place in Helsinki.

I spent one night in the Comfort room on a concert trip and was pleased by how quiet the hotel was despite the nearby construction site. The decor was stylish but not to the point of being too posh, and overall I enjoyed the atmosphere of a small, comfy hotel. The friendly male receptionish also deserves a mention. The beds were very comfortable, and I enjoyed the breakfast, especially the artesan breads and the loose leaf tea. One thing that perhaps surprised me a little was that the room had no kettle or instant coffee/tea available, but it didn't bother me much: I came here to relax, after all. All in all, I can recommend Fabian to anyone looking for a nice place to stay for a small Helsinki getaway, whether alone or in company. I had a good time and could see myself coming again.…

An exceptionally good boutique hotel. One block from the see, a couple of blocks from the lively and famous market square and the cathedral (Suurkirkko). The room what a lot of space for one person but would very well work also for two. Elegant decoration. Everything a frequent traveller could ask: adjustable air condition, window could be opened (with the assistance of the staff who had the key),when AC was switched off, it really was quiet, no baseline humming. A closet with space for small things and underwear, well equipped bathroom with amenities, space for toiletries, a magnifying mirror, well working shower separated by a glass door from the rest of the bathroom, hooks for towels. Goes without saying that the room was quiet, the bed was very good and everything was impeccably clean. Friendly and very helpfull staff. A nice, even innovative breakfast; no usual scrambled-eggs-and-bacon, but several smoothies and vegetables, but also oatmeal, boiled eggs, good bread, cutlery, cheese.... I have not one word of criticism. No restaurant in the hotel, but several different good restaurants in a few blocks. Hope to come back!…

What a lovely place to stay. Hotel Fabian was our base to explore Helsinki for 3 days and we could not have wished for a better place to be. The team at the hotel are really welcoming and so helpful. They have loads of suggestions for places to eat during an public holiday when we struggled to find places open. They helped us to find shops to replace items that the airline lost when they lost our luggage and were generally just brilliant. The hotel itself is in the middle of everything so we were able to walk most places and even took on our first scooter experience to head further out. The rooms are beautiful, spacious and really comfortable. We would definitely stop again when we return to Helsinki.
