Location is superb, as in the city center, in front of Helsinki Central station. Easy access to every where.

This amazing hotel is centrally located, very spacious, clean, the lady in the reception gave a room with view, it's amazing to wake up to Helsinki town view for two morning
Breakfast was good with good variety of food, I get to try the local delicacy
It is centrally located, all the attraction is well within walking distance or tram ride away
Will definitely stay again if I get the chance

Great hotel across the road from the central station. Nice spacious room. Excellent breakfast. Plus it's next door to a department store.

Had a wonderful stay at Sokos hotel. The rooms were very clean, quiet, comfortable and also suitable for business travels (mini fridge, iron, nice small closet).
The breakfast was spectacular and the view from the room is beautiful.
The only downsides are that a gym is advertised, but it is in a neighbouring (10 mins walk) hotel, and that the sauna opening hours are quite limited (6pm to 10pm) compared to other hotels in the area. Nevertheless, i recommend it.
