It's close to Helsinki Central Station, but the streets are cobblestone, so if you have a large suitcase, you can easily take the tram or taxi. The tram stop is located in front of the hotel's main entrance. In front of the hotel is the department store Stockman, Academia Bookstore with Café Aalto, Artek, Moomin Shop, Marimekko, Iittala along the Esplanade Park, the cathedral, and the port, all of which are convenient for walking. . The check-in counter speaks English quickly, but they repeat it over and over again. Since I arrived early, I was able to check in early, but I declined because I was told that my room type would change, so I just left my luggage (I carried it to the baggage room myself) and walked around until it was time. Traveling with my daughter. The room was on the 8th floor with a city view. The room had a great view on the Stockmann side and we could see the morning sun from the port across the street from Esplanade Park. Every morning, I would eat breakfast at Aalto Café and go back to my room. However, the shower flow is really bad. There was a bidet, but it had a bathtub, so I washed my hair under the faucet (lol). There are no amenities other than shampoo (Japanese ones don't lather because the water is hard), treatments, and body soap. Of course, the toilet does not have a washlet, so the toilet seat is cold. However, when I was stuck at immigration, I told them the name of the hotel and they let me through easily. If your luggage is light, this is a hotel you'll definitely want to stay at again.
