Modern and new! I love the concept of having communal spaces, like kitchen, laundrette and the offer of luggage storage are all fantastic! (Especially we could hang around and rest before taking our Santa Claus Express overnight train). The location is fantastic as well, where most sights are within good walking distance, including the railway station. There is a grocey stall nearby as well, which is such a plus. Although the check-in is all online and there is no physical reception, communication was prompt and smooth over whatsapp. Our queries and concerns are all addressed timely. So good is our stay that we returned for another night with them after our lapland trip before flying home. Highly recommend!

I recently stayed at the NH Helsinki grand hansa and had an outstanding experience. the hotel’s location is excellent, right in the heart of helsinki, making it extremely convenient to explore the city’s main attractions, shops, and restaurants. the staff was highly professional, friendly, and attentive, ensuring a smooth and pleasant stay. One of the highlights was the spa, located in the semi-basement, which was accessible for free during the early morning and evening hours—a perfect way to relax and unwind. the breakfast offered both a rich buffet and à la carte options, with high-quality dishes that catered to all tastes. Overall, this hotel combines prime location, professional service, excellent wellness facilities, and delicious dining, making it a perfect choice for both business and leisure travelers in Helsinki.

    We stayed here for a concert in Olympiastadium a d the location was ideal. There is a tram stop across the street which made getting around the city very easy. The apartment was basic but very clean and was perfect for a group as we could all stay together.
