Top Aalto University Hotel Reviews

Radisson Blu Seaside Hotel, Helsinki

10/10 Excellent

"Terrific very clean"

Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel, Helsinki

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and breakfast was excellent."

Scandic Ruoholahti

10/10 Excellent

"The location was good, staff, cleaned and there is a bidet spray in the bathroom, which is very convenient. Breakfast was good"

Scandic Grand Central Helsinki

10/10 Excellent

"Staff handled check-in quickly and efficiently. The room is classic and large with well appointed features. Located next to the train station makes it a great place to spend the night before or after the Santa train. There are lots of food options nearby, an amazing park within a short walk. Highly recommended."

Scandic Meilahti

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room but there was a strange smell in the room. Breakfast is ok"

Comfort Hotel Sello

10/10 Excellent

"Conveniently located, beautifully appointed hotel with friendly staff and an excellent breakfast."

Scandic Simonkenttä

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great place to stay location-wise. Clean, comfortable room and nice staff. Will note that they charge for coffee and a hot water kettle for the room."

Noli Otaniemi

10/10 Excellent

"This is a new, modern hotel with comfortable, clean rooms with well-equipped kitchenette and spacious bathrooms. This is a great hotel to stay especially if you travel with four-legged fellows as they don't charge extra for bringing your pet. There is a wonderful forest just outside across the street with great walking paths, and a well-equipped grocery store opposite to the hotel. The hotel is located in Otaniemi, Espoo some 10 minutes outside of Helsinki. Parking at the hotel is super easy, and the metro station is a 10 minute walk away. With the metro, you are in Helsinki city centre in 15 minutes."

Scandic Park Helsinki

8/10 Good

"Possible 5* but for the parking garage. The room, dining facilities, staff were all excellent. There was even an ice machine on our floor. The breakfast buffet was one of the best, if not best hotel buffet spread/layout we’ve ever experienced. Heated flooring in the bathroom was a nice touch. The location of the hotel made experiencing the city easy. I just wish the garage wasn’t so cramped. Luckily we rented a compact car. If we ever go back to Helsinki, we would stay here again"
