Scandic Grand Marina

We chose this hotel, because it was so close to the port where the Viking Line ferries arrive and depart. The building is an old warehouse, but it was turned into a hotel. The room was decent, we had everything we needed, and it was so quiet. We really appreciated the breakfast selection - it was amazing to see that the bacon was crispy and there were also a good selection for those with gluten intolerance, etc. The customer service was also decent and we were able to check in 6 hours earlier and pay a relatively small amount of money for that. I definitely recommend if you're looking for a place to stay for a reasonable price in Helsinki city center basically.

A beautiful place situated in a great area of Helsinki, close to ferries, attractions, and everything! The hotel was amazing, with wonderful breakfast options. Staff was really friendly, they let us drop out bags and were really nice to out little one. Thank you!

It's a tale of two millenia for this hotel. The reception and breakfast is right up to date and as modern as any other hotel but the rooms are very old fashioned in decor and stuck in the 1990s.The air conditioning is rather loud and there are currently renovating a large part of the hotel which was not mentioned at any point. The king size room was rather spacious but as I have already said don't expect anything to make it special. A strange thing was a mini bar in the room but there were no prices at all to be found if you wanted to use it. The rooms on the top floor don't have very big windows but it does have a window in the upper part of the wall which has blinds to keep the the room dark. The breakfast was excellent, I can't fault it. Everything was delicious. Location is also excellent,, close to the harbour and a tram stop is a minutes walk away and it's a quiet area. If you don't want luxury but a great breakfast and great location this is the hotel for you.
