Judging for Finnish Toy Dog Assoc'n who booked our stay for 5 days. Friendly welcome & very helpful staff, nothing was too much trouble. Hotel was nice & clean throughout, enjoyed the breakfasts which were inclusive, tea, coffee, biscuits & pastries freely available all day, much appreciated with high cost of everything. This is not a luxury hotel but a... more

Me and my wife found this hotel for a two nights stay in Helsinki and mainly looked for a hotel well located for exploring the city center with shopping and restaurants. We had no expectations for any luxury regarding this hotel, but vere pleasantly surprised. Well equipped and beautiful rooms and a very helpful staff. The lobby is also breakfastroom... more

A so-called boutique hotel. Pretensious, and not quite what it aspires to be. The place might have been a cosy, 4 star hotel 15 years ago. Now, it is run down, and at best a 3- star. Reasonable room rates "save" the hotel from a worse rating. But do not book at the hotel's own web page! Chose a site... more

Good quality but not 5 star. Felt good to come back to the room after a heavy day of walking. Breakfast is good. Basic fair and the same every day however it was fine for us. Less than 10 minutes walk from the city centre and harbour. Also not far to nightclubs and bars. Staff were helpful and very friendly... more

I stayed in the Hotel Rivoli Jardin not in the hotel but in the apartments - I must say I was more than happy to find everything that I needed for my 10 day stay. It is about a 5 minute walk from the main centre and it is again from the harbour which I must admit was fabulous to... more

The Bradt guide wrongly describes this as a boutique hotel, but its a rather average 3* equivalent with very helpful / friendly staff with a good breakfast. I would only stay there at a heavily discounted price - sub £100. There is no air conditioning - our room was 23-25C. It has a small reception / restaurant area and little... more

We stayed 5 nights in the apartments owned by the hotel - thoroughly recommend it here. First impressions outside are that the building looks grim and austere, but inside a very different story. We stayed in apartment 26 - seemed like it had been newly done up - it was beautiful. Pine floors, minimalist, modern and tasteful furnishings and loads... more

This place is primarily a hotel but has apartments too in another building close by. We stayed for a week in one of the apartments. The location is very central and one could probably walk to pretty well everything. Trams and buses stop nearby. Our apartment was adequate for everything we Brits needed but American visitors would probably find the... more

First of all i gotto say that the hotel is so different than the pictures on internet.I am not even sure if those photos were taken in the hotel. So as a couple who were satisfied by the photos and rewievs, we were so dissapoointed when we arrived there.We felt like we were in a cheap hotel from 80s.The staff... more
