Top Etelainen District Hotel Reviews

Hotel Arthur

8/10 Good

"Lovely front desk staff! So helpful and cheery! Rooms are varied depending on the class you book, but are comfortable and clean."

Scandic Grand Central Helsinki

8/10 Good

"The hotel had a computer failure when we arrived. We couldn't check in; it took several hours to get rectified. Other than that, it was a good hotel. One drawback - you have to walk up about 15 steps to get to the hotel lobby. With luggage, it was a struggle. But a big plus: it's located next to the Helsinki train station. From the airport, you can take a train to the station, then walk about 1/2 block to the hotel."

Hotel Lilla Roberts

10/10 Excellent

"Such a lovely hotel in a fabulous location. Quiet in the evenings, easy walk to downtown, shopping, restaurants, and the waterfront. Clean and well appointed rooms (excellent hair dryer too) with comfy beds. Wonderful European style breakfast with many delicious traditional Finnish foods. Also love the courtyard for enjoying afternoon drinks with friends. We thoroughly enjoy staying here."

Original Sokos Hotel Presidentti

10/10 Excellent

"Great location within easy walk from the ferry and to Old Town. The rooms were clean and well maintained. Beds were very comfortable and the showers were great. The crowning jewel was their breakfast buffet!! I would stay again just for that. Thoroughly enjoyable stay."
