Senate Hotel

Senate Hotel, although basic, is situated well for local attractions - 10 minutes walk from the shops/ restaurants/nightlife of Helsinki city centre; 15 minutes walk from the harbour, if you arrive by ferry; and right next to Senate Square/Helsinki Cathedral. The hotel, itself, is based in an apartment building, on the fifth floor, and has ten rooms. There's a five-hour window, in which there's a receptionist to meet you (3-8pm). Outside of this time, you are given a code to enter the main door of the building, and then the front door of the hotel section, which I had to do. As it turned out, a friendly staff member was still there when I arrived, and I was fortunate enough to be given a free room upgrade. The double room I was given, was larger than average, and included a wash basin and small refrigerator. The bathroom and toilets are shared, but clean with a good, strong shower, and separate men's and women's toilets. There's also a small shared kitchen, so you could prepare food. My hotel room had a comfy bed, and good thick enough curtains which, if you're here in the height of Summer, means you won't be woken by the sunrise before 4am! The decor is a bit dated, but if you need info on what to do, where to go, and what's happening in Helsinki, there's lots of information. This is more of a short-stay hotel - a few days, at most, but if you need a well-located, warm, simple place to base yourself while in the city, this is actually a good choice.

Good location , the room is very quiet , transportation or right outside of the hotel , unfortunately the bed was awful …

Nice location and friendly staff, and THAT’S ALL THE PROS. GUEST WI-FI IS DOWN throughout my stay and no alternative network is available, then I missed one online meeting. BEDSIDE SOCKET IS BROKEN, making it impossible to use the phone or tablet while charging, and the ADVERTISING IS QUITE MISLEADING —I booked a single room at Trip.com, I thought it would be a room with private toilet, since nothing was mentioned in the title while other types of rooms are highlighted for the “shared bathroom”. Well, and the SOUNDPROOF can just be ignored. Maybe ‘Hostel’ is better for the name.

服務非常好，因為飛機晚點了，凌晨2點才到，服務生還在等我的電話。衞生也很好，雖然沒有獨立衞浴，但是公用的格非常衞生。房間還挺大的，就是住電梯旁邊有點點吵。打開窗户就看到赫爾辛基大教堂非常好的地段！估計走過去六七分鐘

這家酒店無論從哪個標準來説都超出了我的預期，房間大床品舒適，附帶廚房功能齊全，共用洗浴間條件也非常好，老闆很友好很細心，幾乎是面面俱到，讓我在這兒住了兩天有的回家的感覺，也讓我對芬蘭多增加了好感，謝謝！

有趣的無人入住體驗哈哈哈哈 非常古老的建築和風格 還有一些可愛的旅客
