This is an absolutely beautiful hotel. The rooms are spacious with comfy beds and lovely big shower rooms. Good wardrobe space and plenty of pillows. The location is brilliant, it's literally next door to the station and from this point everything is easy to find. Despite being next to the station we didn't really hear the trains, the odd rumble but nothing that would affect sleep. We also couldn't hear the bus station outside either as our room was at the front of the hotel. The staff were extremely helpful and explained everything really well. Excellent breakfast selection and plenty of it. I also used the sauna which was delightful after a long day walking round the city. Also beautifully clean and well presented. We couldn't have been happier with our stay. Only one thing was missing. No kettle or tea and coffee in the room.

Beautiful, unique property connected to the train station which has views into and around the train station. Very convenient location to trains coming to and from the airport, etc. and walking distance to the major sights and shopping area in Helsinki. Amazing breakfast!! So many fresh, delicious choices. Nice bar with a small dinner menu and an upscale restaurant. Very helpful people in reception who can give guidance on local sights and directions. I hope to have the chance to return to Helsinki and stay at Scandic Grand Central.
