This fabulous hotel enjoys a surprisingly practical location despite being rather outside the centre of Helsinki. The adjoining shopping centre is an Alladin's cave for the shoppaholic looking for anything from designer cosmetics to traditionally-made Finnish sauna products. This hotel comes highly recommended. DG10/08.

This is a super-modern, purpose-built hotel.

The rooms are large and exceptionally stylish with unusual warm yellow colour schemes and polished wood floors. The furniture and all fixtures and fittings are of the highest quality and the whole represents cutting edge Finnish interior design beautifully. Both the rooms and the likewise state-of-the-art bathrooms are in exceptional condition.

The restaurant is on the ground floor off the lobby. It has a pale green colour scheme and a double-height ceiling and floor to ceiling windows down one side make for a lovely airy atmosphere. Again, the furniture and the restaurant's design epitomise cool Finnish interior design.

The lobby is large and modern with an open plan lounge and bar off to one side. Its slick design is just a taste of things to come....

This hotel is part of a large and stylish shopping centre adjacent to Leppavaara railway station just 12mins train ride from Helsinki main station.
