Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally located for exploring Tallin, just a short walk from the ferry terminal. The rooms were clean and quiet, though some may find the window small on the 6th floor. The staff were friendly and helpful, but the bar service lacked attentiveness. The dining experience offered a good variety of options but could be crowded at times. Overall, a convenient and comfortable choice with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel had some drawbacks like a cold room with misplaced furniture and outdated decor, but the service was excellent, and the location was very convenient for exploring Helsinki and catching a ferry to Tallin. The dining options were good despite being busy at times.
The hotel offers spacious rooms that are comfortably furnished but could use some renovation. The service is friendly and helpful, although there were some organizational issues. Its location is ideal for those visiting Tallinna, with easy access to the harbor and tourist spots. The dining options are varied, but with limited gluten-free choices. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
The hotel's rooms were from a different era and did not match the room at all, making it feel overpriced, lacking essential amenities like an iron, bathrobes, and more. On the upside, the room was a good size and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The service was professional and helpful.

The hotel facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel has some drawbacks like small windows that let in noise but with no pre-booking required. However, the friendly service and perfect location make up for it. The dining experience is impressive, especially for special diets, while the facilities offer good amenities.
The hotel is conveniently located close to the city center and within walking distance of many attractions. The rooms, while spacious, seem old and in need of renovation, resembling a prison cell with outdated plumbing and minimal decor. The service was attentive and accommodating, with some minor housekeeping issues. The dining options were varied and delicious, fitting the overall theme of the hotel's services. The location offers a quiet retreat but lacks proximity to restaurants and bars. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
The hotel is situated in a fantastic area close to the market, harbor, and main attractions in central Helsinki. While the rooms were somewhat basic, the service was excellent. The dining experience was not ideal due to overcrowding, but the location is a real plus point.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were comfortable and quiet, although some furniture could use a bit of refurbishment. The service was exceptional, with staff going out of their way to assist guests in every possible manner. The location, although not very central, was convenient with public transport nearby. The dining options were rich and catered to various dietary preferences. The facilities provided added to the comfort of the stay.
The hotel is spacious and suitable for families. My room was light and airy, but I had to ask for clean towels, and the WiFi was non-existent. Although there was no kettle and tissue box provided, basic body washing liquids were available. The service from the bar tender was exceptional, and the staff remained courteous and calm even during busy times. The location was great, just a short walk from Helsinki harbor. The dining experience was delicious despite being busy, and the facilities were satisfactory.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were outdated and cold, which was not very comfortable, but it was awesome for our family with 2 young children who enjoyed the daily treats. However, dealing with queues, especially when in a hurry for dinner plans, was a hassle.
The hotel offers clean, comfortable rooms with excellent bathrooms and strong WiFi, tastefully furnished in a clean Nordic style. The delightful staff is very attentive, and the great breakfast selection makes it an excellent base to explore the city. However, service can be slow in some aspects, and not all staff members are equally attentive.
I truly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The location was superb, just a short walk from the center of Helsinki, allowing me to easily explore popular tourist spots. The rooms on the upper floors were nice and clean, albeit a bit smaller than expected based on online photos. The service was friendly and helpful, although there was a slight hiccup with one of my nights. The dining experience was average, and I found some areas that could be improved upon. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor drawbacks.
