We stayed for five nights at the prison hotel. We loved how unique the hotel is. We loved breakfast, afternoon coffee and cake and thought the free dinner was great value and delicious.

Excellent location in a nice neighborhood with tram access right outside the door, but also walkable to central Helsinki. Room was spacious and bed was fantastic! Bathroom well-lit and spacious as well. Breakfast had fairly limited choices and was quite repetitive. Dining area is very dark and not super comfortable. Overall, I would definitely stay here again. Good value and perfect location.

Is it strange to say a stay in a former prison was comfortable and convenient? This hotel is a gem. Very helpful and friendly staff. Easy to find, very walkable and steps to public transport. The option to enjoy daily Fika and a nightly meal on site were a nice touch.

A great location for anybody visiting the city as a tourist. The tram stop at the entrance brings you to the centre (but it's a easy 10 min walk) and also will bring you to the ferry terminal, the main train station to change for the airport. Staff were friendly, room was very comfortable, high quality linens and bed, very quiet at night (built in soundproofing due to being an old building). Breakfast and dinner was included and it was great and good value too. Would certainly stay again.

Lovely hotel, don’t actually know it used to be a prison. It’s been renovated so well. Spacious rooms, comfortable beds, lovey to have a bath as well as a shower in the bathroom. Delicious buffet breakfasts and dinner included. Only issue was that we felt the rooms should have been given a clean every day. However, really enjoyed our stay.

Excellent property. The staff were extremely helpful and responsive. The food was great and was in walking distance of center Helsinki. Property was a prison for over 200 years, and was cool to see these asthetics integrated into the soul of the hotel. Would stay again and highly recommend!
