Scandic Park Helsinki

Excellent location , across from the Finlandia Hall; in walking distance from downtown (also several tram lines); safe area; a few restaurants but nicer and cheaper that those in the city center. Nice indoor swimming pool (free). Good breakfast. Possibility to sit outside (on the "terrace") breakfast for greater quiet. Room OK.

The hotel hosts also large groups. Thus, if one happens to check in/out or have breakfast when a group is moving in/out or having breakfast , it may be a bit messy. The restaurant is not too far from the reception. Thus, always a bit of kitchen smell as one walks in the hotel. May want to improve air aspiration system (?). Place doors to isolate (?)

We like Scandic chain a lot!

The hotel is close to the train station, across a nice park and a lake. In the heart of the city, public transport is excellent. The rooms are modern and clean, the staff is very kind.

Location is wonderful

If you go for breakfast at 9 am you don't find scrambled eggs anymore!!!

I like the location of the hotel.

I did not like that I had to decide spontaneously the time that I would go for breakfast. That was a bit stressful.

Easy to walk to the centre or take the tram opposite the hotel. Nice park with a small lake nearby. Breakfast OK

Although we stayed 4 nights, they didn't clean or changed the sheets for the whole duration of our stay, we were 3 people in the room, I had to ask for toilet paper, as we run out but hadn't replace it. I also asked for clean towels, glasses as there were none in the room and extra pillows. No cupboard, only a space for hunging some clothes.When I complained about the cleaning, they told me it's hotels policy only to empty the bins not to clean the rooms! I mean it's a hotel not an rbnb! The hotel is big so breakfast room was overcrowded. I would have liked more options for coffee not just filtered. Plenty of options to eat though. Parking in the hotel costs €29 pd and no guarantee you'll find one when you get back. Advertised a pool and sauna, couldn't use as was overcrowded, closed in the morning, open after 3:00 pm. 3 lifts not enough to accommodate so many people.

Location, close to amusement park, not far from center either. Clean, good food

Nothing really to complain

Often very long queues at reception desk.
