Room was clean and quiet. Staff was welcoming and kind. The property is conveniently located near public transportation and places to eat. We had a great stay!
Great staff they were so helpful and thoughtful. Great location for the town centre and ferry terminal. Plus an amazing breakfast. Overall would really recommend this hotel and will be returning next time in Helsinki.
Location is very close to tram that takes you right to the city centre.
Hotel was clean and staff were excellent.
Room is small but shower was nice and big.
Breakfast was good as well.
Very clean room, very artsy theme thru out properties. Centrally located. Nearby sushi buffet is a must visit for perfect salmon sushi all you can eat.
Had an absolute lovely stay! Not too far from the city centre (about an 10 minute bus ride) and just a 15 minute walk if you’re taking the ferry to Tallin. The breakfast is delicious and the rooms are a great size. There is no microwave or fridge in the room, but it didn’t bother me. 100% would stay here again!
Amazing Arts Hotel with great stuff and a welcoming atmosphere . Thanks to Malin and her Team for making this stay so special for us. Supermarkets, Restaurants and a pub with afterwork beer for just 5€ are close by. Especially top located (2 tram stations) when planning a Tallink trip to Tallin.
Breakfast has always a wide variety.
Thanks for having us. Strongly recommended!
Staff great room good and comfy. Great atmosphere they have really tried to create a good experience!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was excellent and the customer service super friendly. Location was very good too, easy access with tram to middle of the city and walking distance to metro station too. Nice restaurant selection nearby and shops too. Perfect stay, thank you.
A really good hotel away from the busy streets. Easy access to the city centre and close to the sea. The breakfast is not huge since they moved it upstairs, but there's about everything you could need. I was happy with it.

Small rooms, poor breakfast, location is not the best.
No sauna on site; but there is uusi sauna two blocks away.
Rooms were just right.
Breakfast was delicious.
Parking is off site.
25min walk to city centre, but there is a tram that takes you right there easily.
Really enjoyed my stay here, the art is so fun to look at!
