Good breakfast buffet included in rate. Very quiet on my inside room, but no windows to outside and no AC so it made for... More

It's a bit old, it might have a few scuffs and scratches - but it's got character. I'd spent 2 nights previously in a soulless American chain hotel nearby as the Presidentti had no availability for those nights and I hated it. I love the Sokos hotels for their, well, Finnishness! This one must have been built when there was... More

I've been in few hotels and here I felt a bit cheated. I made my reservation through phone and my only condition for booking the room was that I can go to sauna on Sunday at 10pm. In the phone they said, "Yeah sure, that's not a problem." Well, when I checked in they said that sauna is impossible to... More

Rooms are generous in size and bed comfortable but air conditioning is ineffective, the mini-bar locked and noise from the outside cafe can be heard 7 floors up with the windows closed. This can be forgiven as the free internet access is excellent throughout the hotel. What lets the hotel down enormously is the lack of cleanliness both of the... More

Let me begin on a positive note: A spacious, bright room with a good view over a bustling pedestrian square. No sounds from outside interrupted my sleep. The bed was excellent with a really comfortable mattress (not common these days when most hotels nowadays favor mattresses that appear to be made out of concrete). The breakfast was also excellent. But... More

Stayed here for one night in May. Had to pay €20 extra for checking in two hours early witch felt kind of strange. They said it was because my room was not ready, but apparently they had rooms available, and the one I got was not an upgrade at all. Anyway, the room was OK, very clean, but a bit... More
