Advantages: Central location, great breakfasts, friendly staff Disadvantages: Somewhat overpriced, small bedrooms, tiny bathrooms
Recently, I relocated from Australia back to Scotland and decided that as it's a very long journey I would break the trip in several places. Thanks to a direct flight from Singapore to Helsinki I was able to visit the Finnish capital for a few days and was able to secure accommodation in a special little hotel in central Helsinki.
♣♣♣Hotel Location and History♣♣♣
The 3 star Hotel Anna is situated in a 7 storey building dating from 1926 in central Helsinki and possesses 36 single rooms, 25 doubles and several suites. Located on a street called Annankatu it is part owned and run by the Lutheran church although this has little significance for the traveller wishing to stay there. The hotel is about a 2km easy walk from the centre of Helsinki and all the main tourist attractions which is ideal if ...
Advantages: pool, restaurant, ambassador lounge, comfortable rooms Disadvantages: Not especially cheap
My mum frequently comes to Finland on business and this is where she stays whenever she's in Helsinki. This means it's the place I've stayed on all my previous visits here. I've never found a reason to complain about it, but then again, my mum has always been the one paying.
Scandic are a big company who have hotels all over Finland, as well as in Swedon and, I think, Norway.
--- Location and Transport---
The Scandic is on Mannerhiemintie, which is a large street running straight through the city centre. It's about five or ten minutes walk from the very centre of town, but there's a tram stop right outside if it's cold or you're feeling lazy. Three different numbers of trams run down Mannerhiemintie at this point, so you shouldn't have to wait too long. The Finnair bus, which goes directly to the airport, stops immediately ...
Advantages: As Close to The city centre that you can be Disadvantages: We could not think of any.
A very comfortable hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful located not more than 5 minutes walk from the central station and the main shopping area. We were there at Christmas and it was beautiful, with a snow covered city centre, in the evening we were able to walk in the park located immediately to the left of the hotel. During the day we walked to the shops including Helsinki's main department store Stockmann. The Plaza was even able to provide special pillows on request. Corporate it may be but the great style, restaurant and facilities, and is surrounded by restaurants bars and a casino (When I say surrounded they are all close, but not too close, if you know what I mean). We loved our stay in Helsinki though short and brief, we would go back and be very happy to stay at the Plaza.
