We had a wonderful stay at Sokos Hotel in Helsinki. The location was excellent, just across the street from Helsinki Central Station, making it convenient for exploring the city. The hotel building also had a 24-hour supermarket, very convenient for any last-minute needs.

Located right opposite the train station, this place is conveniently positioned in the very center. I appreciated the free wi-fi in rooms and the air conditioning, making my stay comfortable. The dining buffet offered a good variety of dishes, and I also enjoyed having an electric kettle in the room.
Highly recommend this hotel to all.

The hotel facilities were excellent, including a private balcony and a cozy retro room, made us feel like we were in a nice place. The cleanliness was great, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast provided was great, and the wifi connection was very good with fast speeds.
For us, it was ideal.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, as it was very close to the railway station and a departmental store, making shopping very convenient. The hotel itself was directly in the city center, making it easy to find from the main railway station. Our room was spacious, clean, and nicely decorated. The staff was friendly and provided excellent service. The breakfast was delicious and had lots of quality choices. We also enjoyed the panoramic view from the rooftop terraces.
The long lines and slow registration process at the reception.

The hotel had a great location, with easy access to transportation and various restaurants nearby. The breakfast buffet was varied and delicious, offering a good selection of hot and cold dishes. the sauna was a wonderful experience and a great way to relax after a long day of exploring.
The storage space in the room was quite limited, difficult to keep our belongings organized. The room also lacked sufficient power outlets, making it inconvenient to charge our devices.

As vegetarian and vegan travelers, we were delighted to find that the hotel offered a breakfast buffet with vegan options. It was great to have a variety of choices to suit our dietary preferences.
Felt like VIPs, no complaints.
