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.

What travellers are saying
- ExperiencedTravelersLos Angeles, CA602 contributionsThis is an attraction with rides, food and midway-type games. Clearly the place is intended for, and used by, teenagers. However, it is fun to wander around get something to eat. If you have kids, buy a pass and you get some peace and quiet while they have fun.
There is a tram ( #3) that lets you off right in front. That is a lot better than driving and parking.Written 15 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We booked our slot from 20:00-22:00, we arrived just before 20:00 and were served by two friendly ladies who explained where everything was and handed us our towels and locker keys. The locker rooms are unbelievably small given the number of lockers they have, so it’s slightly difficult to navigate getting changed and getting to your locker when there’s a few people in there. I dread to think what it’s like on the weekend!
There were only two saunas open instead of three but after reading the reviews this seems to be a common occurrence. The two saunas which were open were decent but for the size of the establishment and how busy it can get, I was expecting bigger saunas as even we noticed that sometimes they were both full. Beware some people (guessing they’re locals) will come in and pour water over the rocks without asking, this didn’t bother me because I have a high tolerance to heat; but if you don’t, be prepared to move out quickly.
There are communal showers with hot and cold water available. There’s a jetty with two rails which take you directly to the Baltic Sea. The water is very shallow with large, sharp rocks, so make sure you don’t run and jump in! It’s nice that the sauna is separate from the restaurant and outdoor dining area as I would’ve felt uncomfortable wandering around half naked whilst people were eating. I’d suggest bringing another towel with you, as we found after getting in the water we’d use the towels to dry off, but when we went to shower then get changed, the towels were still wet.
They have multiple seating inside and out if you fancy a break from the heat. They also have a log fire with comfy sofas and tap water available to keep you hydrated. You also have the option to set up a tab, if you’d like to have any soft or alcohol drinks.
Overall, a brilliant experience to immerse yourself into the finish culture. Slightly let down that only two saunas were available and that the locker rooms were very small.Written 13 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Antonio MSydney, Australia24 contributionsAfter a day of walking Helsinki city, we opted to visit this place to see both the tour of Finland and of Helsinki.
It was a quiet day for the operator and so we had the entire cinema to ourselves. Great cinematic experience.
Operator was very courteous and most accommodating, by giving us a break between the two shows.
Great show!!Written 12 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Excellent facilities inside with the somewhat quirky experience of cooling down outside in the street..with a towel of course. Reasonably priced. Very relaxing.Written 10 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Scots PineStirling, UK12 contributionsIf you are planning an expedition and need a bespoke deal, Norberto Diaz is your man.
I booked the best available kit on his website, but what I actually got was better and more suited to my needs. Norberto clearly cares about bikes and about cycling. So if you are planning an expedition and need something special, its well worth talking to him. His website is well designed to cater for run of the mill rentals, but my experience is that he can deliver more if you need it.Written 10 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

And probably the only place in the city you can see some real dances. You are not required to buy alcohol, so you can enjoy dances!Written 5 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- 599AngelaToronto, Canada522 contributionsShot bars have nearly disappeared where I live.
But they live on in Helsinki. And we had a hilarious Sunday night experience here during Midsummer. We had the place mostly to ourselves, which was good because they only have one little area suitable for people with short legs - all of the rest of the seating is impossibly high.
The bartender was a load of laughs and was ready to tell us what to drink, what would knock us out and what would taste better. We ended up having three shots, with a suitable water chaser. We nursed the shots, unlike the three other people who came in, span the wheel of fortune, and had their shots poured and drank within ten minutes!
Music might be a little loud, but the decor is great and the list of shots covers an entire wall!
It was around the corner from our hotel. I could see going there every night under different circumstances.Written 29 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
