The hotel is located at a very good location for a family. Both center and Linnanmaki Park are in a walking distance. In addition, park at the coast of lake is a very good way to walk to the center. We have booked the room in advance and agreed with the front office details. No surprises at all, we were... More

It is not located in the heart of Helsinki, but it is within a walking distance. I use this hotel when I don´t have business in the very centre of the city and I don´t out to eat. It is usually quite reasonably priced and I find it easy and comfortable. Bit worn, but it comes with the price. Nice... More

Good location near N7 tram stop. Decent wifi and frequent guest programme. Usual ok breakfast. Smallish sauna, but has pool and convenient mini shop right away on same floor. No teapot in room is a big downer, as was too lazy to crawl to bar for cup of tea before bed ... after midnight - not sure if was even... More

Must admit, when I stayed there was a junior ice hockey festival with 10-12 year olds from all across Europe invading the hotel. Service staff had good dry humour to cope with this unusual situation. Hotel needs a renovation, rooms are ok. Great restaurant around the corner called Carelia (a must try!) More

Location is axcellent. Despite renovations 40 years of age can be seen. Rooms are quite spacious and well-equipped. Restaurant´s level is reasonable. Breakfast was moderate and unimaginative. Carage parking was very expensive, narrow and dirty (hotel has no outdoor parking). More

The hotel was for me as a tourist's ideal. The hotel is located on the main street of Helsinki, some 15 minutes walk from the very city center. Hence almost infinitely adjustable to all of the Finnish National Opera and the Parliament Building and the National Museum. After being reported to have received a very nice room. What was very...

We had to get a room quickly from any hotel in Helsinki for 5 people and 1 dog because we had a water leak in our home, We moved to the Scandic Continental hotel during the busiest season in the winter, the New Year. The hotel was full of people, most from Russia. The stay itself was rather pleasant. The... More

THis is quite typical Scandic hotel. Nothing luxurious as the hotel is laready quite old and the rooms worn out. But the hotel has good atmosphere, ecellent service and good food. The location is very good. Hotel is couple kilometers from the city centre which is good distance to walk or if you do not feel for walking the trams... More

What I liked the most was their staff : all courteous and helpful, resolved all the issues related to my booking (they had two bookings on the same name in their system). Their breakfast was lovely with typical Nordic dishes like herring and reindeer pate. Location is perfect: next to the Hesperia Park - beautiful views and fresh air. Transportation... More
