Waldorf Astoria Helsinki

The Hotel Maria is stunning property in the heart of Helsinki. Every corner of the hotel is so modern yet classy. The rooms are absolutely stunning and the bed was incredibly comfortable…! The things I thought were bizarre is that you pay like 400 euros a night for a hotel room yet still you have to pay an extra 45 euros per person to use the spa… you would think with that kind of price tag already it would include spa access similar to many other 5 star properties around the world (for example the four seasons). Also when I called the reception asking them about the breakfast timings they told me 7-11… when I arrived at 10:10 at the breakfast hall the woman there just told me breakfast is closed and isn’t accepting more people.. so the reception conveyed the wrong message to me and made me have to skip my breakfast. Other than those 2 things I loved my experience at the hotel Maria.

I would highly recommend this hotel when staying in Helsinki. The staff were exceptional and the room was amazing with far superior technology compared to most other hotels. The spa was also excellent which does require advance booking. Will definitely be staying here for future travels in Helsinki!

A very wonderful stay at the Hotel Maria Helsinki. We received a very warm welcome when we arrived in the early morning. We were especially thankful that the room was ready for us too. The breakfast spread at restaurant Lilja was scrumptious and the hotel staff friendly and helpful. Location is excellent with the tram nearby and also within walking distance to attractions and shopping area. A great place to stay in Helsinki.
