Original Sokos Hotel Vaakuna Helsinki Reviews

Breakfast is wonderful! Location is perfect to go anywhere in Helsinki. You can access 24h supermarket in B1.

I'm pleased with the stay. The room was clean, with a comfortable layout and design. However, I was a bit disappointed that I didn't get the room with a view and a bathtub, despite requesting them during booking. The breakfast offered a variety of choices and was located on the 10th floor with a beautiful view and a roof terrace, allowing for a panoramic city view. The hotel is connected to a shopping mall, making it convenient to access shops, restaurants, and the metro station. I enjoyed the sauna and the quality of the provided shampoo, body gel, and conditioner. However, there is no gym and indoor swimming pool for a workout and exercise. Overall, it was a good experience, and I'll likely come back for the next trip. =)

It’s very symbolic hotel because this hotel consists of Paavo Tynell’s fitting lights. Location is very close to Central train station, so it is so much comfortable. But, the room was too much big 😅 for me. If you have any schedule to outside to Helsinki, highly recommend here.

Very central and close to the train station. It has long history and servive is decent. Great breakfast.

good location, nice and helpfull staff . breakfast was excellent

Everything was grate. I loved the location, the breakfast and the sauna.

Clean, reasonable, good breakfast. Highly recommended.

Friendly staff and clean hotel

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 location is really good. It is very convenient to go to the attractions and the airport. There are many places to eat at the door. I arrived on an early flight and paid 50 euros in advance for a room + breakfast. I was quite satisfied. I can also use the sauna for free at night. The disadvantage is that the air conditioner in the room cannot be turned off. There are two rooms and one air conditioner is not cold. The breakfast is quite rich, but it is enough for two days. Overall, it is still recommended to stay.

The bed is too small and the space is very tight, but the location is good, just opposite the central station

The hotel is right next to the central station. It is very convenient for travel. There are shopping malls and department stores downstairs and around. Shopping and eating are very convenient. The hotel is very new. It has a full Nordic design style. The room size is also moderate. The breakfast is also very rich.

It is located right in front of the Central Station, and almost all tourist attractions in Helsinki are within walking distance. Another great thing about the hotel is that there is a large 24-hour supermarket in the hotel building! The breakfast venue is on the top floor, so it was great to be able to enjoy a delicious, elegant breakfast while looking out over the Helsinki cityscape. This is a hotel I would definitely like to use again the next time I come!

The location is good, close to surrounding attractions. The front desk of the hotel is friendly. After looking at the ID, I found that I was given a large piece of chocolate as a blessing for my birthday the next day.
