Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Helsinki Cathedral is a beautiful Building both inside and out! It’s full of culture and character and is definitely worth a visit.

    Great cathedral in Helsinki. It’s a bit on a hill so it can be seen well before you are there. I unfortunately could no go in due to a private service, but the exterior is very very cool.

    The main attractions of the new no 15 tramline, two big shopping centers are situated at both ends. Starting in Keilaniemi business park in Espoo the tram stops at Otaniemi by the Aalto University campus travelling then through scarcely inhabited areas to Sello Mall in Leppävaara. A short tunnel passes below an ancient fortress hill before emerging in Pitäjämäki. There are connections to the railway network at Huopalahti and Oulunkylä where you can change to the Ring Rail for airport. The end station in East is the big Itis Mall with access to the metro.

    This is a shining example of a successful civic building. Architecturally beautiful it holds spaces for all ages to explore books, record music, tinker, play video games, attend lectures or have a coffee.

    Great central location is a can’t miss opportunity for people watching. This block sized square is a popular magnet for folks climbing the steps for perfect views of downtown Helsinki. You’ll eventually cross through this iconic location, stop for a moment and appreciate the wonderful ambiance.

    A fantastic art museum downtown Helsinki. Besides traditional Finnish art they provide interesting changing exhibitions. Friendly knowledgeable staff, affordable tickets and lovely atmosphere! Note that by purchasing a generic museum card you can enter for free to any museum in Finland! Depending on the frequency of museum visits, this may pay back on shorter trips as well

    This is a gorgeous-looking railway station, which is worth a look even if you don't plan to take a train, simply because it's such a beautiful building.

    Oh what jewels to be found inside. This is a big library with 7-8 levels. It's a book readers paradise for sure!
    Entry is free. You need to leave your coats, umbrellas and food etc at the ground floor. There are free lockers.
    The building from inside is beautiful, with gorgeous frescoes.
    The library is spic and span and well organised. Many places to sit and read in silence.
    There is a cafe downstairs but didn't check it out. Clean restrooms.
    A week is not enough in such a place.

    We had a tax-free coupon from our previous journey. With that, one way journey from Stockholm to Helsinki was just 32 euros in an A-category window cabin. We also booked special breakfasts. So the total was 76 euros - 5 euros using my Viking points (boats).

    The highlight of this trip was the sunset on departure from Stockholm. The special breakfast was as good as before.

    The ship was quite full. Probably, there was also a holiday week in Swedish schools as in many Finnish schools. So we skipped the crowded nightclub. The sunset was the best entertainment for us.

    Impressed by the vastness and outline , it is said to be one of the biggest department store in Europe. To me it reminds such of that Gum complex in its neighboring country. Lots of big name retail. Expanding 6 floors and at the basement is also a huge supermarket. Only minor issue is that it was not cold enough inside. Other than that just go there for the experience.

    We enjoyed our stay in Kiasma and bought gifts from the museum shop. The Tom of Finland exhibitions was good but little bit too much. I like to VR as part of the show, but photographs are too many. And I also like to Photo exhibitions og the Nigerian artist Fani-Kayode, but there were only few of his work on the wall. We are missing some more different exhibitions from younger generation and maybe they can use part of the Tom of Finland exhibitions rooms for something else to give more variaty.

    Entry to the museum was free which was great and it's designed for families with plenty of things for children to see. The museum is situated just off the Senate Square. The staff were all very friendly and spoke good English. They have a nice gift shop, cafe and clean toilets inside. The museum is spread over several floors and has a wide range of exhibits with many designed to interest children, although plenty for the adults to see as well! The museum gives you a history of Helsinki with photos and exhibits including rooms to show how people lived in the past. There was also a large model showing the city. Well worth a visit especially if it's raining!

    A village nearby to a body of water is always ahead of it's other neighbours.

    Very quiet and the views over the harbour are a treat.

    My favourite were the HUGE icebreakers moored during their summer break. They are enormous machines. Good signage dotted around too.

    This is a beautiful glass building, which is the home of the local philharmonic orchestra.
    There are some lovely sculptures outside the building.

    Exhilarating experience. It had to be done although I had thought that I would back out. Take the sauna first to build up some heat and then slowly steadily walk into the sea pool. It's not necessary to stay in a long time or to swim, just a quick dunk is fine. Get out, stand around outside for a minute then revisit the sauna. There are several saunas on site although my favourite was the panorama harbour view. Swimming costumes are required for the mixed ones and do take a towel with you. €8 to hire a not particularly good one is too much considering the €18 entrance fee
