The hotel is situated by the sea near West Harbour from where Tallink ja Eckerö Line ferries to Tallinn leave. The city center is 500 metres away but there is a tram stop right in front of the hotel. We had booked a business class room for two nights for a rate 121,50 euros per night which is very good value in Helsinki. Also had asked before to get a duplex room with a balcony. There are only three of them. We got the room number 733 which is the biggest and has a wider balcony. The room is very bright … read more

The Radisson Seaside hotel is built in an old factory which leads into some unusual room plans. While the rooms are clearly inefficient, they are comfortable enough and a refreshing change from the Universal Hotel Room. Oddly placed windows, pylons etc give the place quite a bit of character. On the downside this means very few king size beds and baths. If those things are not important to you I'd certainly recommend this hotel especially in summer when the distnce from the city center is a pleasant walk, or pedal on the complimentary bicycles. … read more

This Plaza de España is located directly at a port in Helsinki. The port is quiet. In front of the hotel runs however a major road are also partly paved. I asked for a' quiet hotel room' whereas I the view no matter was. We had our room in the 6th floor. Access to the floor (also in the elevator) was only with the room card possible. The course to our room smelled (smelled) very strong. Is possibly on the lack of air ventilation in the area, since the windows are closed. The carpet in the corridor also saw from, … read more

The service leaves something to be desired, in any case for a hotel this actually upscale category. Since I am other used to. The staff speaks English, however partly so unclear and fast, that you several times to ask. On the instruction, that even only badly English speak, are not being reacted to. The room service was a disaster. On the first day were the beds not at all made, had fluff and dust bunnies from the day before and offenschtlich before were not removed, the room was clearly not mopped or vacuumed. In the bathroom was the floor towel from the floor … read more
