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.

We could not have asked for anything more. The hotel is walking distance from the ferry station (from Stockholm), and close to Market Square and other attractions. We upgraded for a larger room, and was surprised how large it was. Very clean, bed really comfortable. In spite of it being full for mothers day, it was very quiet. The breakfast buffet was very good. One morning we had to catch an early ferry to Talin, and they packed us a breakfast to take.

Hotel's Favourite
I stayed in hotel Fabian July 2022, and it was a lovely experience. The location of the hotel was great, however there currently is large scale construction opposite the hotel. I was generally up and away by the time the construction started so it didn’t bother me in the morning, and the soundproofing of the building was adequate. The breakfast included in the room was lovely, with fresh fruit, smoothies and juices. It felt like a healthy breakfast with a good variety to choose from. I used the mini fridge during my stay, which is on the pricey side, as are all establishments in Helsinki city centre (All prices are clearly stated in the room, though) - if you want to buy cheaper alcohol there is a Alko shop next to Hotel Fabian. There is also a grocery story just next to the hotel, on the side of Kasarmitori. The hotel is also very close to all the sights one would want to visit, such as Esplandinpuisto, Kauppatori - where boats leave to Korkeasaari (Zoo) and Soumenlinna (military fortress island). Senaatin Tori is also close, where you can see the famous Tuomionkirkko church. Electric scooters are readily available and you can also quickly get to sites like the famous Oodi Library. On my final day I was very hungover and the staff kindly arranged for late check-out, and the service was friendly - with everyone being able to accommodate me speaking English. Apologies to the two young girls in the morning for having to deal with my very hungover checkout, haha! Thanks for the stay, I will probably stay here again next time I visit Helsinki :) I forgot to take photos of the room, but this is one showing the nice design in the entrance and large mirrors, and a good amount of storage in the cupboards - the room also had a desk and mirror in front of it which was useful for doing one’s hair, the bathroom also had a plug for hair styling equipment and had a hair dryer available.

The hotel is great. Staff very friendly and helpful. They go out of the way to assist you if you need anything. They will order you cars and can arrange tickets or whatever you need. The reception area has a nice seating area for a late night drink. Only three blocks from he Market Square and tram stops. So much to do in the area. Rooms clean and neat. Could not ask for any better.

A really nice well presented hotel. It is in an an absolutely ideal location for the city especially if your are arriving by the ferry. very walkable into the city and it's sites with many eateries and a decent sized grocery shop very close by. The staff went above and beyond when I thought that I had lost my phone (under my bed in the end) being extremely helpful and patient and it was solely due to their help that I recovered my phone. On our last day our ferry didn't leave until late afternoon and we were able to store out bags in the hotel luggage room with ease. Overall a very pleasant experience I would highly recommend Hotel Fabian to any one visiting Helsinki.

We stayed in Fabian hotel for one night. The hotel was beautiful and welcoming and the stuff was helpful and nice. We had Comfort room (which is the smallest option from hotel's rooms), but it was spacious and stylish. The breakfast selection is not that wide but enough to eat tasty food. The only thing that I did not like was the cleanliness of bathroom with some extra hair in the shower from the previous guest. But I don't think it is a regular thing in Fabian because everything else was clean. Overall, we had very pleasant stay and I would come back!

Dear LadyM, Thank you for visiting us and for writing this review. I am happy to read that you enjoyed your stay with us. if you have more information that could be useful to discuss with the housekeeping team, it would be good if you reached out directly to us. stay dates, room number etc. could be useful for us fallow up bathroom cleanliness topic. It looks like a human error as you say. Have a great day and I thank you for the feedback, It is highly appreciated when we maintain and develop our services. Warmly welcome back again.

Fabian is surely well located to visit Helsinki. The rooms are well appointed and the beds are very comfortable. I can also comment on the fact that the noise insulation is optimal, and rooms are very quiet. On the aspect to be improved, the housekeeping service seems to be weak. I would also suggest to put a tea/coffee facility in the rooms, this is a basic type of amenity ! Globally a good value for money for the three nights stay before Christmas.

Excellent 2-night stay. Super friendly and helpful staff. Large twin-bed room. Comfortable bed. Clean. Wonderful sleep. Excellent complimentary Wi-Fi. Seemed to be mostly business travelers during my mid-December visit which made for a nice, calm experience (much appreciated.) Simple but ample breakfast - quality instead of quantity - but all you need. Lots of healthy options, including gluten-free and vegan. Loved the ginger shots and smoothies! The lady working the breakfast shift was doing a million things at the same time - clearing tables, re-stocking supplies, brewing coffee - yet always smiling. Fantastic location. Easy 15-minute walk to/from the train station. My new "go to" place in Helsinki.
