It was conveniently located near the station.
It would be better if the shower had a little more water pressure.

Cozy, old style, hotel in the heart of Helsinki. Staff is very friendly. It looks like part of the hotel has been renovated, but some sections were not. A good stay overall.

The staff were helpful. Allowed us to leave our bags in the room early as it was ready.
They booked an early morning taxi and made us a take away breakfast.
Great location for walking into town.

Someone who gives this hotel more than three stars average to this property must be getting paid.
The place is old, the heating doesn't work properly, and the bathroom is just a joke.
Breakfast is good

Only three minutes from the station. Friendly efficient staff used to the questions & needs of tourists. Room was clean & comfortable though there was the distant rumble of trams even on the 5th floor. A tasty breakfast was appreciated but weird to only offer bacon at an extra cost. There are no bargains in Finland but Hotel Arthur offered reasonable value for money

Centrally located YMCA hotel in Helsinki. Parts of the rooms are proper, but dated. Others are up to date and modern, some even with AC.
Due to fowl smell in our first room we received a new, very nice modern room on the 8th floor. Very silent and aery inner court yard, with views of the top floor YMCA basketball gymnasium.
Very nice an varied buffet breakfast at €18, if not inlcuded in room rate. Also gluten free products part of the buffet, breads, carelian pastry & muffins brought heated to your table. At a surcharge bacon €3, sparkling wine €5/12cl.

This hotel is very conveniently located from the central station, within a very short walking distance. The room was clean and there are choices available for different number of people (which was very helpful for our group since our members have different arrival and departure dates). The staff was kind and helpful. The hotel staff allows flexibility check in (can give us the room as it is available) and check out (allows late check out as requested). The breakfast was also impressive, fresh and with variety of choices. Will recommend this hotel. One little thing to suggest is to provide some more space such as hooks in the bathroom.

Firstly the staff were great and accomodating. We originally booked a quadruple and for an extra fee per night they added an extra bed rather than having to get a single room.
The breakfast was extensive and my kids enjoyed it every morning.
The location was good for the train station and visiting the parkrun.
The hotel however is VERY tired. There was a constant smell around the toilets in the reception area and our dated bedroom. We asked maintenence to check the plumbing and the bathroom was cleaned again but the pungent smell remained, to the extent that my daughter was gaggjng when trying to brush her teeth, and we avoided spending time in the room.
The beds however were comfortable, despite the dated room and lack of frudge, etc.
We were staying in the main hotel above the restaurant, overlooking the school - i am not sure if other parts of the hotel had been refurbished or not.
