I recently stayed at Hotel Arthur whilst in Helsinki for a conference. Firstly, the hotel is very conveniently located, just a few minutes walk from the central railway station, tram stops and bus station. The free airport bus stops at the bus station just on the opposite side of the central station. I shared a twin room with a friend... More

The title of my review is about the best thing I can say about this hotel. It is very convenient to the central station so trains, buses (including the Finnair express bus to/from the airport) and trams are at your disposal. The only other really good thing I can say about this hotel is that the staff we encountered were... More

I recently stayed at this hotel for two nights. The only thing i didnt like, was i kept getting lost trying to find it. This has nothing to do with the hotel, but more the set up of Helsinki streets. The hotel itself was comfortable, clean and good breakfast. As it is light in the evening and morning, they had... More

Stayed here for 2 nights, got double room with twin beds for single use in what I believe must be adjusted building once incorporated into the hotel - got to take turns and stairs to get to the room from the lift/main stairway. Centrally located - 5 min walk from railway station, 1 block from subway station and tram stops,... More

Arthur is an old hotel. The location is excellent and the price is right. The public areas are neat, even stylish, but the guest rooms are very basic. Linoleum floors, small old TV, hard and narrow bed.

For the price I paid, I must say that it is good valued. However, it is certainly not impressive. Little improvements can be made to enhance guests experience. Breakfast is ok but can consider vary the varieties. The younger reception staffs are friendly and helpful. The more mature staffs appear to be rude, they might be working for quite a... More

Everything is expensive in Helsinki. But this hotel offers: an extremely good and strategic position (just beside the central station), affordable fares, decent rooms (maybe a bit small but clean and cosy) with free wi-fi... What else? Oh, an incredible breakfast!!!

I booked a single room but was very lucky to be allocated a twin room (it's still small but fine for one person - I guess the single room might be even tinier so I'm really grateful for the upgrade). It's not the nicest (and therefore not the most expensive) room in the hotel but it's still acceptable to me... More

Conveniently located. The hotel is old and you can see that. The rooms are okay, the bathrooms could do with some touching up. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was okay as well. Not a very memorable hotel, but it is affordable and definitely offers value for money. I liked it, you get what you expect.
