    Comfortable Stay but Needs More Staff

    I enjoyed my two-night stay in a King Room. The location was fantastic, close to major attractions. Unfortunately, check-in took forever, and breakfast was chaotic with items missing. If you drive, plan for expensive parking away from the hotel. Try the local fare at nearby restaurants!

    limited space

    The room was cozy and quite clean, perfect for just unwinding. The comfy bed made it easy to catch some good sleep after a long day. I loved the elegant decor—it added a nice touch. There were enough USB ports for my devices, which is a must these days. Overall, a really nice setup!

    great location
    small room
    limited sauna hours

    I had a fabulous stay while attending a seminar in Helsinki. The location right next to the train station was perfect, allowing easy access to the main attractions like Senate Square and the National Museum. The breakfast was truly exceptional, with a wide variety of delicious options available. My room was clean and newly renovated, although a bit on the smaller side.

    cleanliness issues
    limited room size

    I recently stayed at Scandic for business and was impressed by its convenient location next to the railway station, which made my travels easier. The breakfast was exceptional, featuring a variety of freshly baked goods and healthy options. The fitness center was well-equipped, allowing me to maintain my workout routine during my stay. The rooms were cozy and warm, providing a comfortable retreat from the cold temperatures outside.

    Room cleanliness could be improved.

    stylish atmosphere
    cozy rooms
    noise levels
    understaffed service

    The hotel has a stylish atmosphere and cozy rooms, making it a nice place to unwind. However, the noise levels from outside can be bothersome, and during peak times, the service felt a bit understaffed, especially at check-in and breakfast.

    breakfast options
    accessibility issues
    inconvenient entrance

    Exceptional breakfast options every morning.

    My experience was completely frustrating from the start. Upon arrival, I was shocked to discover a steep staircase leading into the hotel, making it incredibly inconvenient for guests with luggage. Finding out later that there was a side ramp only added to my irritation, as the entrance door could only be opened from inside. This lack of accessibility should have been clearly marked.

    amazing breakfast

    Solo traveler looking for comfort

    I had my stay for 3 nights and it was great. The breakfast was amazing, with so much variety that I couldn't choose what to have first! I also really appreciated the friendly staff who were always ready to help me. The room was clean and very comfy, just what I needed after a long day.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but for what I got, it felt acceptable.
