Hotels in Kluuvi, Helsinki

Our second check-in in the same week as we came back from Rovaniemi. Spacious in the main bedroom area (open 2 large 30inch luggage and still have ample of space to walk) but toilet is very small. All it takes is a 10min shower to flood your entire toilet due to the poor drainage design. You hardly can bathe with ease in the shower area due to the size and structure of pillars. Wouldn’t recommend to pay extra for this room as the proportion of the room is not design well. Our previous stay in the slightly cheaper room was better than this.

We had a good stay at Hotel Arthur. The location was pretty convenient for us - it was a 5 minute walk from Helsinki's Central Station for platforms going to/from the airport, tram service was nearby and it was within a 15-20 minute walk of everything we wanted to see in Helsinki. We booked this hotel because it was inexpensive for our stay and it was pretty pleasant.The breakfast was included with our stay and was welcome as well. We booked a twin room with two twin beds. The beds were comfy and we found extra pillows in the closet. We had a really good sleep each night at the hotel because it was very quiet. The room had a couple of chairs including a pretty big cushioned one, a desk and a TV that was mounted high. The room could be a little better with the cleaning of the tv remote and kettle but the beds and bathroom were fine. The hotel is over 100 years old and we felt the hotel showed its age the most in the room because there are some renovations that have been done over the years and it is pretty evident . Our room only had plug-ins at the desk and there was none near the night stand by the beds. The closets were in need of some maintenance because the door tracks were a bit stiff, the floor was peeling and the drywall in the back was loose. The shower used to have sliding doors as evident by the track that wasn't removed but the shower had a curtain that was too short and the floor squeegee was there for a reason because the water went everywhere when I showered. Shower pressure was fine and it was easy to get plenty of hot water. You may want to consider bringing your own bath products because the shower gel was meant for hand soap, body wash and shampoo. The hotel has saunas that you can book upon request. If you book your hotel reservation directly through the hotel you can get a discounted rate of 8 euros per person for the sauna but if you book through another website it is 10 euros per person. There is a nicer sauna that is shown in the pictures of the hotel but it fills up pretty quickly. We got the other sauna and it was ok but was in need of some cleaning because previous guests left their wet towels all over the place instead of in the towel bin located under a bench. We felt it was silly to charge a different rate if you booked through another platform because we wouldn't have heard of this hotel if we didn't use the platform we used! The breakfast was pretty standard and I had a nice English breakfast each day from the buffet. The mushrooms, sausage and hash browns were my favourite but I grew to enjoy the scrambled eggs during my stay because they add something to it that I'm not used to. They also had yoghurt, cereals, cold cut meats, fruit and cheese amongst other standard breakfast staples. They had a juice dispenser, a small selection of tea and black coffee. They also had items that you could pay for at the bar like a cappuccino or chocolate chip muffin. The reception area was pretty good. They had luggage storage and quite a few chairs to sit in. My wife liked their small souvenir shop and got some cute post cards. The staff are very helpful and can provide recommendations for the city. The reception also provide tea and sugar for your room and you can pick up your rations daily. They do not provide regular cleaning for the rooms but you can arrange cleaning or new towels through reception. There are plenty of sights to see nearby as well as cafes, restaurants and shopping malls. The tram is a short walk away and that was very convenient for us as we did a day trip to Tallinn using the ferries to go across the sea. We booked this hotel because it was affordable in a pretty expensive city and we would still recommend it if the pieces are fair. It was a good place to sleep and unwind after each day we spent exploring the area.

I wish I could give 6 stars. 5 for the hotel which was the nicest in all of Helsinki. Central location in a beautiful building retrofitted for the hotel. Of course squeaky clean and modern tech galore. I see thoughtful small touches like fade-in/out lights, quality bedding, sound proofed windows etc at every corner. The extra star for working with me on an error I made during booking process without any fuss. Staff at front desk was very welcoming and professional as well. I really don’t have anything to even nit pick… I guess the standard room was not large by any standards but had high ceilings so it doesn’t feel cramped. And that’s it, can’t recommend more and believe the near 5 star rating by everyone.

This hotel can be seen when you exit the central station, and it is only two or three minutes' walk away. There is a shopping mall downstairs of the hotel, and commercial facilities such as restaurants are very convenient. The hotel is within walking distance of major attractions, without taking a car. If it is at night, you can ring the doorbell next to the gate, and the waiter will open the door for you. The front desk waitress is very enthusiastic, smiling and serving, patiently answering questions, and explaining the relevant matters clearly. The corridors of the guest rooms are very spacious, the rooms are also spacious, the sheets and quilts are snow-white, and it is very comfortable to live in. The room offers a beautiful night view of Helsinki, with neon lights flashing and colorful. The bathroom facilities are complete, with a hair dryer, and the shower water temperature is stable and the water flow is large. It is particularly worth mentioning that the buffet breakfast is very rich, and the dining environment is warm and quiet. After checking out, you can store your bag for free. The storage room is at the door. The waiter gives you a door card. Swipe the card to open the door and store the bag. Swipe the card when taking the bag. After taking the bag, put the door card in a small locked box and close the door and leave. I didn't see any Chinese tourist groups during my stay, which is very suitable for free travelers. Recommended to friends who come to Helsinki for free travel.

The room is clean and the service is excellent. A must-choice for business trips👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍 🏻

very convenient location, tram station is directly opposite the hotel and is a short walk from central station

I give it a full 5 points. Compared with other hotels in the city center, this is more cost-effective, and the hotel is very clean, the breakfast is also very good, and the room is enough for one person. It's very convenient to go out, whether you take the subway, bus or tram, there are many things to eat nearby. There is a small fridge in the room as well as a safe.

It takes 10-15 minutes to walk from the central train station. Because of the slope, although the straight-line distance is not far, it is still a bit difficult to walk with a suitcase. The hotel is very good overall, but the surrounding area is under renovation. There was originally a park behind, but it seems to be blocked. The lobby is very beautiful, and there are ice lemonade, snacks, and fruit supplies. The waiter is also very nice, but the room is very small. I can't see the area when booking. I guess it's only 15 or 16 square meters? We almost had no place to put our two large suitcases. Fortunately, the bathroom is not bad and not small. The room is also very clean. It takes ten minutes to walk to the White Church and ten minutes to the pier. There is also a bus stop downstairs, which is quite convenient. You have to take a bus or an electric scooter to go to the Rock Church, Sibelius Park, etc. Overall, except for the small space, it is not bad, and the breakfast is also very good.

Super downtown! It feels good to book a basic deluxe room because it is an interior view room! Extremely quiet! Great for sleeping! The room is very cozy and not too small. It is the only hotel in Northern Europe that has slippers. If you are going to other places, it is recommended to bring slippers! The cheapest Louis Vuitton in the world is right outside the hotel, but it’s a pity that it’s not open during renovations! Behind the hotel is the famous pedestrian street. All attractions can be reached within walking distance of the hotel. For example, you must eat at the Centennial Market! The Centenary Cafe is diagonally opposite the hotel, Ekberg's Budapest Milk Roll is a short walk away, the White Church and the Red Church are within walking distance, and the port pier is within walking distance. Note that if you go to Tallinn’s West Pier, it’s quite far away, so be sure to see which pier it is. Facilities: The room feels new and renovated, everything is good! The hotel room corridor is really old and has not been renovated! But the hotel lobby is also very old money style, the service staff are very enthusiastic and always greet you, and any problems will be solved in time! The restaurant on the first floor of the hotel is very delicious. It is recommended to have dinner. The National Day set meal for Finland’s National Day is good! But the market has more delicious food! The hotel's breakfast is also very rich on the first floor! There are a lot of homemade ones, basically all very sophisticated and delicious! Overall, I recommend staying in a deluxe room!

The original Solo Sokos. Itself part of a chain. Has a nice feel to the entrance and lobby area. Good decent rooms. Best of all, near to the University which I needed to go. Also right in the middle of shopping and eating districts. Friendly reception and helpful staff.
