Very good facility, great location, clean and good WiFi. Room smaller than US facility but I guess that is EU standard. No free breakfast, and one day dirty towels were not collected.

Typical conference hotel. Easy access to Train at Pasila and Tram 2. Breakfast is average and do not change over the 5 days we stayed there. No body lotion. Average size room.

Everything was fine, but the cleaning was missing

The hotel was beautiful, the service was great, the location was amazing for me, who went to work at the Messukeskus, and the breakfast was delicious. But the cleaning was disappointing. I arrived, and the low table was full of breadcrumbs, the night table had a raisin, and in both beds I found long hairs. The tables stayed like that until I left, despite the bed was made every day.

Messukeskuksen tapahtumassa

Loistava sijainti meille. Hotellihuoneen TV toimi huonosti, ei pystynyt käyttämään. Kaksi yötä oltiin ja toisena päivänä huonekortit lakkasi toimimasta, saatiin kyllä heti respasta apu. Erinomainen aamupala, siisti ja hyvä huone.

Emme päässeet hotellin yöpymään, koska se oli ylibuukattu. Hotelli järjesti meille kuitenkin melko sujuvasti majoituksen toisesta hotellista.
