A very unique art-themed hotel. Rooms are individually designed but lacking a chair and table. The hotel is located in modern, up and coming (in a nice way) area. I would definitely stay again.

Very nice hotel and super friendly easy-going staff - they helped us handle cake delivery and kindly stored it in the fridge (no fridges in the rooms), even gave us nice cake cutter without demand :) Excellent breakfast with a variety of hot and cold dishes, fruits and pastry.

Great property, lovely bar and hangout area Lacks places to out your stuff, even a small dresser would help. While compact we have stayed here for business twice because of the great art, warm environment and a lobby bar. The location is good depending on what you’re doing in Helsinki, we find it mostly walkable and easy to get around

The hotel is really outstanding and good reachable with the public transport. The staffs are super friendly, everything is clean and you can rest very well. You aren't that far from the main station. It was my second stay, last year I also already stayed at this hotel and if you wanna do a day trip to Tallinn the hotel is nearby by the port.
