I stayed here for three nights in June on the midsummer weekend, booked through Expedia. The hotel itself is some 10 miles from Helsinki city centre, and a 20 minute walk through a housing area to Rastla metro station. It must be said that if you want the bustle of the city then this hotel is not for you but I had a car and wanted a bit of peace and quiet , so the hotel was perfect.
The hotel is mainly geared to conferences but is used a lot in the summer by tourists as well. It isn't much to look at, very 1960's, inside and out.
Admittedly the hotel was quiet as it was the weekend of a national holiday but the check in was smooth and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The room was a single, comfortable and with air conditioning. The shower was excellent.
The complex is sprawling, the single rooms are in a block on their own, the doubles/twins are attached to the hotel.The restaurant is in the main building, breakfast was more than adequate, fantastic coffee, but, as it was the quiet season, the restaurant was not open in the evenings.. There is also a gym (in what used to be the air raid shelter!). The hotel also has free internet access.
However, the main draw of the hotel is the peace and quiet - I was the only guest in the single room block. The hotel has its own sauna on the shore of the Baltic. The views are superb and it was great relaxing down by the beach and letting the world go by. I loved the hotel but I did see it at its quietest, and one of the receptionists did say the hotel gets very busy from September through to May.
