"I think the phrase “Home Hotel” is a perfect description. I’d stay here again any time I’m in Helsinki again."

10.0

I really enjoyed this hotel; this is the 2nd time I’ve stayed there. It’s an unusual use of a former prison— the building still has some reminiscent photos and some objects from this period. The decor in the public spaces was comfortable. The staff (reception, dining room, etc.) were very competent and friendly. Location was excellent, especially that frequent tram tram service was right outside the property limits.

I liked everything about it.

"監獄改建 獨特的體驗; 含早晚餐不用煩惱要吃啥, 而且料理水準中上"

9.0

安靜一區域很有歷史的一棟建築, 在裡面走就能感覺到歷史氣息; 乾淨整潔; 含早晚餐且都有一定水準; 旅館外就是一個電車站

窗戶不可開;桑拿時段過少
