Hotels near Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma in Helsinki

We arrived late in the evening from Berlin and had next day May Day lunch with our friends in Helsinki city center. The hotel is conveniently located at Helsinki Central Station. So there is easy transportation by train from the airport. Our plane landed at 21:55 and already at 22:50, we entered our hotel room. Trains via Myyrmäki arrive at this side of the station where the hotel is located. We had booked a standard room with my IHG points. Because of my IHG Platinum Elite status, we were upgraded to a top-floor standard room. Previously these rooms were executive rooms with bathrobes and better toiletries. Not anymore. So there has been some downgrade concerning the room equipment. The rooms are not very spacious but practical. The views from the top-floor rooms are great. Breakfast is never included in the point reservations at IHG hotels unless there is a lounge where you have access. At this hotel, breakfast costs 21 euros per person. It is slightly better than the usual Scandic or Sokos Hotel breakfast in Finland. So maybe it is worth the price.

There was someone at the counter until early in the morning. The two single beds in the small room were very big and very hot. It was very comfortable to take a shower as soon as it rained outside. The sound insulation was pretty good. The breakfast was delicious. Check-out was only at 12 o'clock. You can store it in the room. There is a luggage room for luggage. It is only five minutes away from the train station. It is convenient to go anywhere.

I've stayed for only one night at the hotel but am very satisfied nonetheless! Staff was really nice and helpful, always answering any questions with patience and a smile. Great placement! You just need to turn a corner and there's a shopping center with train station, bus stop also is very close. Rooms nicely organised and clean, with just some small blemishes. Bathroom equipped, clean. Breakfast was good, buffet offers vege options, everyone will find something for a nice meal to start the day.

I stayed there for a couple of nights in July. I really liked it. Took the train from the airport to the central station and it is literally around the corner. I’m not that familiar with the prices in Finland, but I know it can be expensive. It was about $100 USD a night. Clean rooms, good breakfast and friendly front desk who were nice enough to speak English with me. The hotel seemed pretty empty but it is large so that may be part of it. The large empty halls had a feeling of the “Shining” which I really liked, but let’s be honest. Finland is kind of spooky anyway - in a good way.

When we arrived, receptionist was helpful, giving us information what we needed. Visit top floor restaurant make me feel good, thinking how many times I’ve been here, over 20 years, and still it’s nice place relax, take a beer. After evening walks, we go cafeteria restaurant, in street view, enjoy hot, fresh good coffee.( it’s very important to my wife) And also there is quality drinks. Room is very clean, I was hoping big bed, when I made my reservation, and I get that, thankfully I sleep like a baby. Location is super middle of Helsinki, train station, taxi, supermarket, just go out, and you are already there. We definitely come back. Thank you for all, and special thanks for Anna reception.

Helsinki’s renovated historic hotel Torni opened its doors in the spring of 2022. When completed, it was the tallest building in Helsinki and a skyscraper of its time. It is still one of the tallest buildings in Finland. The American Bar, opened in 1960, has always been a unique meeting place in the heart of Helsinki. The magical atmosphere of the cocktail bar and enchanting drinks transport the visitor beyond the reach of everyday life.

Overall really nice and centrally located hotel. Close to the main railway station. All floors have different themes related to Finnish nature (Winter storm, Midsummer, Fairytale forest, Sisu, Tranquility) and the front desk let us choose between a couple of themes. We weren't sure what they were going to be like, but chose Fairytale forest, which was ok. The room was a bit on the small side and with a view to an inner courtyard - however this was to be expected with the room type. The room was really quiet, which was a bonus in the middle of the city! Breakfast was nice, mostly European style with breads etc. Would definitely recommend the hotel for the central location and Finnish style, if you want to experience that.

This hotel does exactly what it promises....”cheap rooms, clean rooms, easy check in and check out”. If you are looking for a cheap place to stay in the centre of Helsinki for less than €100 a night then this place is five star. However, our room overlooked a shop and opening the curtains in the morning naked is a bit of a no no. But on the whole.....this is a perfect place to set up base. There are supermarkets just 5 minutes away on foot and they have a microwave and kettle and all the basic needs for surviving in Finland on the cheap. I would have given it 5 stars but opening my curtains to a real shop where people are mooching about is just weird.

The team is super friendly & warm - always smiling & assisting with questions, directions & suggestions. Clean Rooms With 100% noise cutting windows. We stayed in the basic room facing the road & slept blissfully all nights. The Marski has the best best breakfast spread I have ever seen in a hotel in all my 27 years of travel. They have options for every kind of guest. It's unbelievably thoughtful Though we didn't go to the bar, it was packed most evenings with DJ music playing & gave the hotel a lively atmosphere

Stayed here with friends for one night before sailing to Tallin the following morning. We opted for this place as it was cheap. The Hotel was clean and well located, only a short walk from the train station and ferry terminal. Rooms are basic, mattress was very thin. The bathroom was functional but very cramped. USB ports were preset on most sockets - a nice touch that you don’t always get more expensive hotels. Overall this was ok for a night but I wouldn’t want to stay too much longer.
