Really good. Great location, great room, great staff, great value. I loved the feel of the hotel, too. The stay was just what I needed - so much so that I tried to book a room for a second night later in the week ... but had no joy!

A cosy, simple place to stay in an excellent location - I was just in Helsinki for a few hours and the hotel was an ideal option for my stay.

This is a great location if you're visiting Helinski. It's close to the train station, the port, and of course, the senate square. It's in the 5th floor of an old building but it has an elevator and everything works smoothly.

Great location
Older property on the fifth floor of the building. Some quirkiness due to age, but great central location and a tram stop literally right outside the door of the building. I had an emergency when my original lodging was cancelled hours before check-in, and Senate Hotel was able to accommodate me at very short notice.
