I only stayed here for one night (last night), and to be honest thats ok by me. I dont want to be too harsh....but there is usually at least something that you could like about a hotel, not the case here for me. This feeling is furthermore exaggerated by the cost of the room, 110€ (supposedly heavily discounted on Booking.com) for a Superior Double Room to include free Wi-Fi internet access, extra long bed (seemed normal to me), tea/coffee maker (don’t remember seeing this) and slippers (definitely no slippers), as well as a TV and minibar (TV and mini bar!!! That’s novel in hotel rooms).
If my room was superior, I would not like to see the ‘standard’ rooms. This hotel is basically an old hotel which has been ‘revamped’ into a modern ‘boutique’ (so they like to advertise) by the addition of some minimal ‘text book’ boutique hotel furniture…..the white wooded bed, desk and chair. Besides that….well old very standard hotel stuff. The bathroom I found particularly disappointing.
Finally the breakfast was nothing to write home about either, everything standard to below here also. For the price, I would have to recommend other hotels. For slightly cheaper I have also stayed at Hotel Fabian, just one block away from here in distance, but much further in terms of quality!!!

Dear Sir,
I am very sorry you have been so disappointed to our hotel.
This is very important for us to have our guests comments, that we can improve our service, breakfast and make our rooms more comfortable .
(There was a small electric kettle as well as mini-bar on the console under the TV.)
I hope this did not ruin your visit in Helsinki.
I am pleased to give more information
Best regards
