The rooms are beautifully designed and comfortable. It is a little bit away from the train station but I enjoyed the quiet neighborhood. The bathroom is pretty small. If you mind tiny bathrooms, book a larger room. Some amenities were lacking such as a wash cloth and conditioner. Considering the price and design, I will stay again. As a bonus, there is an excellent Japanese restaurant which is kind of hidden from outside.

Cosy and comfortable

Very comfortable convenient hotel with friendly helpful staff. Each room has a kettle. In some rooms on the top floor (6th) the ventilation is noisy. Ask for a room with a digital air conditioning control.

Hotel Helka has everything you could want for a comfortable stay in Helsinki. The breakfast buffet is excellent, and there is a fridge and microwave available to guests. Getting into town is walkable via the old railway line which runs along the middle of the street, or there are frequent trams which stop nearby. The bar is a quiet but friendly space to hang out in the evening after a busy day. The best thing though is the sauna 🤗 free to use mornings and evenings. Highly recommended.

Old and pictures are non-representative

Hotel staff were very accomodating but the I found the pictures well crafted to a level that meke you feel like they were deceiving as the reality was different. A bit old, uncomfortable bed, shower area was too small. Missing fridge, no slippers (so forget going to the sauna if you haven't packed one.) Talking about Sauna, it was clean and nice

地下鉄やバス停も近く、ヘルシンキ中央駅からも徒歩13分程で着くので、とても良い立地だと思います！とてもおしゃれで清潔感もあり、3泊しましたが、タオルとゴミの回収は毎日してくれました。朝食が始まる前にホテルを出ないといけない日があり、朝食バッグの準備もしてくれて助かりました。残念な点は、トイレの水圧が弱いところと、冷蔵庫がない点です。日本人の人も多く泊まっていたので、安心しました。

前回の旅行でとてもよかったので、またこのホテルを選びました。 おしゃれなインテリアで居心地のよい客室、スタッフは優しくてフレンドリー、交通の便もよく、すばらしい滞在でした。 サウナも清潔で使いやすいです。 朝食も変わらずおいしかったです。ディル入りの酢漬けきゅうりや、ルバーブの素朴なケーキなど北欧らしい味わいでしたが、ニシンの酢漬けやえびマヨネーズなど前回気に入ったメニューが見当たらず残念でした。

2024-25年の年末年始に初めて宿泊し、その後すぐに再訪しました。ずっと憧れていたホテルでしたが、地図で見ると少し不便そうに思えて今まで避けていたんです。でも実際に泊まってみると、全く不便さを感じず、とても快適に過ごせました。 館内にはArtekの家具が置かれていて、インテリア好きにはたまらない空間。朝食は冬も夏も同じメニューでしたが、どれも美味しく、毎朝楽しみにしていました。サウナも清潔で気持ちよく、リフレッシュできました。共用の電子レンジや冷蔵庫もあり、スーパーで買ったお惣菜を温めて楽しめたのも嬉しかったです。 空調はセントラルヒーティングではなくエアコン式なので、冬は気温が氷点下になると一番強くしても少し肌寒さを感じました。ただ、部屋ごとに温度調整ができるので、冷房が苦手な私でも夏は安心して過ごせそうです。 大晦日にはOodiのカウントダウンに行きました。深夜の治安が心配でしたが、普段以上に地元の方が多く出歩いていて、安心して往復できました。Oodi近くは花火でかなり賑やかでしたが、ホテルでは音が少し聞こえる程度で、気にせず眠れました。 清掃については、冬は環境への配慮で3日ごと、夏は毎日入ってくれました。ただ、コップは一度も交換されなかったので、自分で洗って使いました。とはいえ、スタッフの皆さんはとても親切で感じが良く、滞在全体を通して居心地がよかったです。 総合的に考えると、とてもリーズナブルで満足度の高いホテルでした。次回はもう少しグレードの高いお部屋にも泊まってみたいと思っています。
