Scandic Helsinki Hub

Scandic Helsinki Hub

10/10 Excellent
"I had a long layover in Helsinki so decided to stay in town and explore the city in the morning. The property is conveniently located in the city center and can be reached on foot or by tram from the central train station. I had communicated to the property in advance that I would be arriving late.. and check in went very smoothly. I was able to quickly get into my room - which was very cozy and well appointed. In the morning I headed to the hotel sauna before heading out to the city to explore. Helped me warm up and relax. All in all this was a solid property with friendly staff and I’d definitely stay again."
