Great stay
Flawless experience. The staff are very friendly and accommodating to any requests you have. The hotel was clean The sauna was great, it wasn't being used much by other guests so took the opportunity to use it multiple times during my stay. I've been to Helsinki many times, and this is my new favourite place to stay, will return the next time I visit the city. The price is alright and not too much more expensive than other hotels, considering it's in the most expensive part of the city. Very easy to to get to from the Central Station as it's just 3 tram stops away.

Helka was a great discovery. Reasonably priced for the city centre and easy access via Kamppi to the city centre and all it has to offer. Metro nearby and a wide range of eateries. The hotel itself is well maintained and has an admirable eco-ethos. Breakfast is first class and staff are friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
