The lady on reception on the Sunday could not have been more helpful. The location was perfect. We choose this Hotel purely due to the bar on the 14th floor with views over the city. It was very anoying to find that the outside space was closed on both nights of our stay. So we could not even see the view or take photos. On top of this the lady behind the bar was very unpleasent and made us feel very unwelcome, so much so we didn't even bother to stay for a drink. The drinks list to be honest was poor so was happy to go else where. If we had known this we would have booked somewhere else. Was a shame that the other bars in the hotel was closed on Sunday and that Breakfast didnt start until late, by our standards and was a poor spread. Finally the room on the 5th floor was very cold.

We were there on the 24th of December and had the best breakfast buffet that I have ever experienced!!! Super fresh and very delicious. The hotel room was beautifully designed. The hotel room was very small.

Well located within Helsinki. The building is has some nice original features and includes a fun top roof bar overlooking the city. The breakfast could be better organised. The food is great but the seating arrangements need some attention.

I had a room on the seventh floor, so the view was amazing! It can be noisy, because the walls seem to be thin

Asked questions and each time got answers One quEstion reservation done on internet and prices were quite different, even if one time from friday to sunday and other time during the week, business period, but For a family point of view it should be interesting to get best prices, not sure that business guests takes a family room

My hotel room was small, yet the hotel is centrally located. One can see the rooftop view of Helsinki at the 14/f bar (accessible by spiral staircase) or from the 12/f toilets. Remarkable experience.

Location and price was excellent for our purpose. The ensuite was a surprise! Unfortunately the lift was far too popular during the evenings so the waiting time was much longer and it did not accommodate many people. We do understand that due to the nature of the tower and the restaurant at top level there is nothing that can be done to change this. Just go with the flow and use the stairs. Another point would be the lack of airconditioning at comfortable temperature during our summer stay. We were given a fan which made it more bearable.

Good location and helpful staff. Nice breakfast. It was supposed to be a 4 persons room but the sofa bed ment for our 2 children was so small that only one could fit. Air conditioning was not functioning which could be a problem if it gets hot outside.

It was a nice quirky hotel, with a boutique feel. The beds and pillows were great and very comfortable and the location was also great. When we had breakfast there were little staff to direct us to a table and also hard to find a clean table.

Excellent, 8.6

“The fact that the hotel is an ex prison and there are still features of its past was a draw to choosing the hotel, it's certainly something different! The location whilst out of what you would describe the city centre didn't really matter in the end as the tram stop is right outside. All staff I approached were very helpful and pleasant. Food in the restaurant is of a good standard.” Christopher, La Oliva Fuerteventura |
