赫爾辛基聖喬治飯店(Hotel St. George Helsinki)

I went with my husband for 2 days for my birthday and we had high expectations for a 5 star hotel. The building was beautiful and room was spacious as we booked the atelier room. The spa was a big disappointment: the staff at the entrance did not make you feel welcome and not a lot of information was given. Also the dressing room was very dusty, hair on the shower etc. The spa area did not have any therapy spots, only a small pool of 1.2 meters so you could not do a lot. The breakfast was ok. but nothing special.

We stayed in an ateljé room with a view to the park. The room was large, the spa was great for a Friday night sauna and cold plunge. The duvets in the room are very warm, little too warm for a Finn. Special thanks to Pauli at breakfast who was so warm and welcoming.

Centrally located near the junction of Kamppi, the Design District & the Esplanade, & just across the street from the Vanha kirkkopuisto (Old Church Park), the Hotel St. George is a wonderful home base for exploring Helsinki. Special shout-out to the breakfast team (both kitchen & front of house); our server Maricor was especially warm, efficient & professional - either the full breakfast or a lighter meal at the adjacent St. George Bakery makes for a great start to the day! Our only slight reservation was that the WiFi was a bit inconsistent (seemed to kick us off a few times a day, though speeds were reasonably good at ~25-40 Mbps both up & down). Otherwise, highly recommended & we hope to be back!

We had a short 36-hr stopover in Helsinki the St George was absolutely perfect. Early check-in meant we could refresh after a long flight before exploring the city. The hotel is just so luxurious. The room was totally sound insulated, could hear no noise from outside or the corridor at all. The decor was brilliant. The breakfast was the best breakfast we've ever had. Hands-down. So much choice and all so fresh and the service was brilliant. The bar also was incredible, even during the daytime it was a wonderful place to come and relax. The spa was a little busy, and the pool quite cold, but overall good.

The lobby of this hotel is barely there, so you might miss the entrance if you do not know the exact location. It can also be tricky for taxis to pick up and you will need to order the taxi. There is no help for the luggage, and you need to haul them quite steeply, there are also some steps in the floors, so not for heavy luggage! Otherwise, room are ok, nice and fresh, but there is no table to work so not recommending this for any business visitors.

Stayed 3 nights as part of our Scandinavian vacation. Location was spot on fantastic , at city center, near shopping areas, and walkable to other points of interest. Marski hotel may be a little central but once you see it , the difference maybe just a little. The hotel has great exterior and interior aesthetics. Cleanliness was evident. The architecture design was pleasing to one’s eye, more so the decors of the quaint lobby and its signature restaurants. The room we stayed was the Cozy classic twin which had provided an extra bed and amenities for the additional person. Liked the HD Tv which seem encased in a cabinet, and provisions for Bluetooth access. Liked the comfortable beds , the spaciousness it exudes, the minimalist but elegant approach as well. The bathroom has an automated bidet , a rarity for European hotels, and the rain shower was well defined. It doesn’t have a bathtub , but it’s because of the room type we booked. Other unique amenities include the sparkling water maker, and a gym rubber amenities. Slippers and dental kits are also provided. Late night room service are offered as well. Only minor drawback was drip style coffee was available instead of the maker pods offered in other luxury hotels. AC temperature was not cool enough, even the staff went there personally to work on it. Cannot open the windows for additional comfort, but it is more of a subjective approach. Breakfast was buffet with choices of hot and cold dishes. Personal fave of mine was the station serving yummy salty bacon , sausages, eggs and frittata. Request for omelette and eggs Benedict are readily available. Even the type of coffee you want would not disappoint. Staff service from housekeeping, front desk and bell were just great , very professional and seem to doesn’t miss a beat providing help when asked for. Didn’t get to try Wintergarden , their sauna, pool and fitness center and it is because of our quite busy itinerary.
