2-Star Hotels in Helsinki

The location of the hostel is perfect—close to public transportation and the main tourist attractions in Helsinki. It was clean and calm. The bed has a curtain, a mirror, plugs, a lamp, and shelves. The hostel emails all the codes for the building and the hostel for easy check-in. There was no one at the reception when I arrived, but a welcome card was left with my room key. It was unacceptable that a low bed was not reserved for me. It was a nightmare to go to the upper bed.

I arrived before check-in and the front desk staff was kind enough to see if any rooms were ready and I even got an upgrade, which included a tv in the room so I could watch the 2024 Euro Cup! The walls were thin and my neighbor was a prolific snorer. As a solo traveler, it’s nice to have a fridge and fridge I can keep my food in when I don’t want to eat out a restaurant alone! The shower water was surprisingly hot and stayed consistent despite the motion activated sensors. The location is quiet and convenient if you’re a prolific walker like myself! (24,000 steps a day) The hostel also has a restaurant attached for a quick breakfast or dinner.

The hostel is easy to find after you get the bus 600 from outside the airport, which costs 4.10 euros. 30mins journey from airport to hotel via bus. The hostel itself is clean and has friendly female staff who were super nice and provided snacks etc during the football matches each day. You get a free to use locker in the room using the same keycard for entry etc. There is also a 24hour supermarket downstairs, and a nice kebab shop across the street. Overall, decent place to stay if you want to explore Helsinki. The Asian looking male member of staff at reception was disgusting, didn’t wash his hands after going toilet which I saw! Laughed when I told him to wash his hands, reported him to trip and to the hostel too. Really off putting, but other than that, no issues. Breakfast was simple but filling, and the hostel provides free water at reception.

Nice location and friendly staff, and THAT’S ALL THE PROS. GUEST WI-FI IS DOWN throughout my stay and no alternative network is available, then I missed one online meeting. BEDSIDE SOCKET IS BROKEN, making it impossible to use the phone or tablet while charging, and the ADVERTISING IS QUITE MISLEADING —I booked a single room at Trip.com, I thought it would be a room with private toilet, since nothing was mentioned in the title while other types of rooms are highlighted for the “shared bathroom”. Well, and the SOUNDPROOF can just be ignored. Maybe ‘Hostel’ is better for the name.

I was worried about whether I could get into the room, but I was able to contact them using WhatsApp, which I installed in Japan. The room had a refrigerator, a water heater, cups, forks, etc. It was a convenient location.

Great places, only had one roommate super peaceful hostel, ferry was absolutely on time so make sure you schedule yourself for that otherwise it’s a solid 40 mins wait in winter.

It's great here! Everything else is more satisfying than expensive hotels! I live in a female dormitory with 6 beds. The room is well-lit and comfortable! It feels well maintained, the shower room is clean, and the staff is lively, waiting for 24 hours. It is difficult when there is a lot of luggage because there is no elevator!

I stayed in a joint shower, toilet room. Cheap in Helsinki hotels However, it was far from the city center, so the transportation cost was that much. The location of the hotel is in District B and you can come by bus 77 from the central station The hotel had a kitchen and was able to cook. I had to prepare oil, salt and forks myself. There were three supermarkets in a little walk. There were several showers, and I think the best was right behind the kitchen. The refrigerator in the room is not very cold It was inconvenient that the reception door was often closed.

Before checking in, they did not send the code to access the number via mail and SMS. There are no workers in the hotel. I had to spend a lot of money to talk to an English operator.

Arrived late at night but there was a polite explanation about late check-in so there was no problem! The room is warm and the street is relatively quiet. It is in a good location with access from the subway station and bus stop.
