First stayed at the Helka in the mid 90s. Since then it has undergone its most recent transformation into a stylish hotel, with rooms have been fitted with Alvar Aalto furnishings and Harri Koskinen block lamps (The Helka started out as a Finnish version of the YWCA in the late 1920s!). Rooms vary in size but all have free internet... more

I stopped over for one night in Helsinki, the hotel was easy enough to find but between long haul flights I would have hoped for more sleep. The hotel is near some nightclubs and bars where people spill out onto the street. People were loud and kept me up most of the night. I felt the room was overpriced for... more

I stayed one night at this hotel because I couldnt find a cheaper option in the city. It was pricey for my budget, but for a design hotel in the centre of the city it's a great value. I paid 112 euros for a single room. The rooms are tiny, but very modern in design, and spotlessly clean. There is... more

Exceptionally friendly staff and a smart, stylish - but personal - hotel. Room was clean and modern, and breakfast buffet very good. Good location, 10 mins walk from central railway station. more

We did a lot of research online but just not many hotels had availability in early August possibly due to a local conference. Helka Hotel was one of the few with availability but we had to settle for a more expensive suite on our first night and back to a normal room on the second. Finding the hotel was not... more

I stayed in Helka in the beginning of August. I really have no complaints here. Everything was well organised and for the price I paid (summer rate) I would stay here again. It is not luxury hotel, but everythings there; good bed, descent bathroom, extremely relaxed and friendly service plus nearly everything is included to the price like the breakfast.... more

Stayed here for 6 nights with my partner. Got a good deal on price via an external website and was pleasantly surprised when we arrived and got to our room... As it was a cheap deal and only a 3 star hotel we expected a poorer standard! Room 432, which we stayed in, was not huge but very adequate and... more

My husband and I spent five nights at Hotel Helka and were very pleased with the value - the room was spacious, clean and nicely decorated, the sauna was clean and nice and the breakfast was fantastic. The location was good and the staff were helpful too; our only complaint would be that the wired internet in the room was... more

I booked this hotel after sending an email to them asking for discount for a week stay in a single room. They answered quickly ( showing profesionalism and giving me a sense of trust in them) and offered me rather competitive rates so I decided to go there. Located in the centre of Helsinki, a couple of minutes walk to... more
