“An unexpected but very pleasant stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012

We were flying to Kuusamo and missed the connection due to a flight delay. Finn Air put us up at the Rantasipi Airport hotel for the night. It was a wonderful evening, the hotel is clean and comfortable. There are many facilities for business customers, and the reception staff are very helpful. There is a free airport transfer bus to and from Helsinki airport.

The hotel is not at the airport, so there was no disturbance from air traffic, and a good nights sleep was had. It is not in the centre of Helsinki, so not ideal if you are wanting to explore the city, you will need transport to get you to the centre.

The rooms all have twin beds, there are no doubles. The hotel was warm and the room very spacious, with a generous seating area. The bathroom was compact but comfortable, and despite a few minor cosmetic issues was very nicely decorated.

There is a restaurant with a nice menu. There is only one option for vegetarians (mushroom pasta) which was absolutely delicious. We were given a set menu due to the airline paying, which did not include a vegetarian option, but they provided me with the pasta option from their main menu.

Breakfast was delcious and ample. It was a self-service buffet with everything from cereals, fruits, cheeses, meats, breads, pastries, meatballs, eggs etc. There was a very impressive selection. They also catered for gluten-free diets including a seperate toaster for gluten-free bread.

I do not know how much the rooms cost for a night, but for an unexpected delay in Helsinki, we were delighted with the accommodation and food provided to us. I would recommend it to anyone needing an overnight stop near the airport.

Room Tip: We were on the 7th floor which was very quiet.

“Needs some upgrade, try restaurant”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

We had a companied family vacation package for a reasonable price and it included a night at this hotel. The standard family room with our own baby sleeper was very tight for four of us. However, we didn't expect anything else. The room hasn't seen any upgrades from 80's. Especially a toilet felt old. Saying that, it was surprisingly clean there and the room main door was the only one that was badly worn out.

The breakfast wasn't that great in its variety but all food tasted fresh. Special thanks to three sorts of cakes. I tasted only a plum cake it was a very pleasant surprise!

We had also dinner there. The red house wine was very good considering the price range. Kids had their own small buffet with all the basics. It included bit hard chicken nuggets but they were kids' favorites anyway! Good value.
I tried smoked reindeer pasta and it was one of the best pasta dishes I've had. Very full of fat but who cares!
The most memorable thing however was our waitress Maria who was very lively, positive and natural. Never before I've seen a Finnish waitress of such a high level!

The fourth rating point was earned by extras such as variety of loanable board games down at the lobby and especially by small gestures of child-friendliness. Our kids got a wee bag of candies and rubber lizzard toys (with one extra after the wee one lost her first). They sure will remember this hotel for a long.

“Affordable and good hotel close to the airport”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 December 2011

Hotel Rantasipi Airport is excellent choice if you e.g. are travelling by air and need a place to sleep overnight. The hotel offers free shuttle transport from and to the airport. We have stayed in this hotel several times and will do it in the future too. Rooms are basic ones with all necessary equipment. Nothing luxurious, but excellent sleep quality with pretty good breakfast which is offered as early as 4 am.!

However, hotel's reservation center has annoying habit to require your credit card number to keep your reservation alive after 6 pm. This procedure is uncommon habit in Finland. Instead when making reservation, call or email direct to the hotel. But, if calling, avoid rush hours or you will experience rude service from busy, not-so-customer-service-oriented young ladies of the front desk.

Shopping center Jumbo lies close to the hotel, but finding your way to the other side of busy road needs special skills of orienteering...

Room Tip: This hotel is only for sleeping: nothing around the hotel except Jumbo shopping center.

“Basic hotel near airport”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 December 2011

I stayed here for one night because I got an early flight. It got free airport transfer for about every 15 minutes and takes about 15 minutes. It was a basic hotel with an out dated style. Room was simple but clean. Shower was good. It got early breakfast for early flyers. Breakfast was simple but was't bad. It is a good choice of airport hotel.
