After 25 years of absence in Helsinki I had to be in that city again and I booked the same hotel as in December 1984. That's alwasy a risk, but this time it was great to be back. The hotel had been "redone" of course, but had succeeded in keeping the same turn of the century atmosphere which I liked... more

I agree with the other positive reviews for this hotel. Classy, if slightly faded hotel but that only added to its appeal as far as we were concerned. Redolent of history and famous people. Fantastic food. We had dinner there as well as breakfast and both were brilliant. Yes, staff are almost invisible but appear when you need them. Bedroom... more

We chose the hotel based on other Trip Advisor reviews and weren't disappointed. It's a lovely old hotel oozing history, and perfectly located near the train station and within easy walkijg distance of the main Helsinki sights and the harbour for boat trips. There was a substantial difference between the rates quoted on the hotel's own website and a rate... more

I stayed in Hotel Seurahuone for a couple of weeks and it was possibly the most comfortable hotel experience ever. This is a hotel immersed in Finnish history - all major names of Finnish political and cultural history used to meet and have a good time here. The hotel has combined the historical feel of the place with a contemporary... more

I have stayed in Seurahuone many times. Every time when I visit Helsinki I first check what rate I can get in Seurahuone. It has an ideal location opposite the railway station. Both airport buses, Finnair bus and Bus 615, leave basically from the other side of the street. And you can walk everywhere in downtown Helsinki. The rooms are... more

I stayed at this hotel while attending a trade show at the Helsinki Exhibition Centre. The hotel is ideally located, opposite to the main railway station and it is only one stop by train (5 minutes) to the Exhibition Centre, with frequent trains, better than taking a taxis. Upon arrival at the airport, I took an Airbus operated by Finnair... more

In general this hotel was in the perfect location. Walking distance from everywhere in the city. they may want to consider a deal with the car parking company across the street as it is the nearest place to park. The breakfast is excellent,lots to choose from, Our room was located on the 5th floor at the back of the hotel... more

Stayed at the Seurahuone as part of a business meeting for three nights. The front desk staff were very helpful despite my late arrival: I was even upgraded to a Club Room. Speaking of which, my rather positive comments apply to that specific room type and I did not have the opportunity to experience "lower" ones. The room was spacious... more

We had a great 3 night stay here in August. Helpful, friendly staff with fantastic English let us check in early and sold us Helsinki cards at reception. The room was large, very clean, stylish and well-equipped. As Scots we're not used to Aircon and the lack of it was not a problem. The internal en-suite bathroom was clean and... more
