Hotels in Katajanokka, Helsinki

The room was nice and very clean. The hotel lobby had a unique and artistic design. Breakfast offered a great variety and tasted delicious. The hotel's location is excellent, just about a ten-minute walk to the city center, which is very convenient. It's definitely worth choosing.

The room was very simple, just a bed, a desk, and shelves, but the location was great. The nearest tram stop was close to the hostel, and Helsinki Cathedral was within walking distance. A unique perk for a hostel was the free morning sauna, although it was a simple one.

Really liked the breakfast and dinner. Local food. Drinks are also good. The laundry service is pricy so we washed with detergent from a supermarket. Access is also good. A 10 min away from the center by tram. The tram station is right in front of the hotel. Highly recommended. Fika is also a plus.

The hotel is a bit dated but was spotlessly clean. It's conveniently located about a 10-minute walk from the ferry terminal. Nearby attractions such as Senate Square, the Synagogue, and the historic market are all within a 10-15 minute stroll. Our room had a comfortable bed, and we appreciated the complimentary sauna. The breakfast was outstanding – very generous and delicious, highly recommended. A minor point for improvement was the check-in process: Upon arriving around 11:30 AM, we were informed that our room was ready, but only if we paid an extra €20 for early check-in. Otherwise, it would be available at 1 PM as part of our standard booking. Also, in July, the air conditioning in our attic room struggled to keep the room cool.

Highly recommended! Self check-in was very convenient, and the location is fantastic. It's just a few minutes' walk to the Viking Line ferry terminal and tram stop #4, so it was wonderful to be able to return to my room and rest within minutes after a long boat trip. There's an ocean nearby and a supermarket. Most major landmarks are within walking distance, and you can even walk to the central station (if you're sending postcards, you can go to the Posti main post office next to the central station; the Moomin postcards sold at the K Supermarket connected to Posti are cheaper than souvenir shops, though not tax-refundable; Posti also sells Moomin stamps and offers mailing services). The room was comfortable and incredibly well-equipped: a dishwasher, various cutlery, pots and pans, a refrigerator, an electric oven (not sure what it's specifically called, but it can microwave, which was super convenient and saved money for heating up food bought from the supermarket), and laundry detergent pods... Hairdryers, irons, and other items can be borrowed from the service station on each floor. There are free washing machines and dryers on the first floor; just sign up for a slot by writing down your room number (it's a good idea to sign up in advance as they're quite popular). There's a sauna on the seventh floor – you can wear a swimsuit and bring a towel. It has lockers, a hairdryer, and restrooms. Definitely worth trying out! The first floor actually has many free facilities, such as a kitchen, a game room (I ended up taking photos here instead of my room 😂), an office, and meeting rooms. Next door, there's a large gym that guests can use for free, but I didn't have time to try it out this trip. Also, if you buy drinks, you can save the bottles and cans to recycle at the nearby K Supermarket. There's a recycling machine in the corner of the supermarket where you can get back the container deposit charged for drinks!

Not good for the business meeting, but perfect for traveling Helsingki with plenty of time. With random possibility, the tram might be passing by near 8m to your bed, wish you luck on not getting tram-sided room. If you are sensitive about hearing, please put on ear-plugs while sleep. You will also get a nice free eco-bag with minimalism design, high quality Chocolate and Tea set. And wine shop and grocery store is connected right after your room.

There was no staff at the checkin counter and we were struggling outside for 10mins before we found the help button to get to the lobby. When we got in, the receptionist helped us with an early checkin since Trip.com doesn't send you the checkin code. The amenities were great and the room was clean. You would have to get the hair dryer and ironing board from the lift lobby outside the room though.

Exceeded expectations for a four-star hotel. The room and bathroom were both very spacious with a Scandinavian design. It's right next to the station, and the soundproofing is excellent despite the glass walls. Very convenient for train travel. There's a sauna on the 2nd floor; it's small but not crowded. The bed was very comfortable. Had a minor issue with the Wi-Fi but the front desk resolved it. The only downside is that check-in at 4 PM can be quite busy and slow. Overall, for Scandinavia, it's rare to find such good value for money.

The hotel is actually right next to the train station. The restaurant kitchen is adjacent to the platforms. If you take the airport line to Central Station, you can exit through the side door, turn into the hotel garden entrance, and you're right in the lobby – no need to use the main entrance and stairs. The hotel lobby, rooms, and room hallways are all very stylish. The Finnish sauna facilities are just okay. Right outside the hotel's main entrance, you'll find bus and tram stops, plus several 24-hour supermarkets, making it very convenient for shopping and getting around.
