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.

Room was quiet and bed was comfortable. The breakfast was modest and there were not much fresh choices. The girl in the bistro was rude and the food was average. Location was good for the working at the hospital. Overall, pretty expensive for such a basic hotel.

Hello LauraK5720, Thank you for your review. While we are glad you enjoyed our location, quiet and comfortable rooms we are disappointed that our breakfast did not fully meet your expectations. We are also sorry to hear that you had a negative experience at the restaurant. That's not the type of service we provide and that's not the standard set by us here at Scandic Meilahti. We appreciate your stay and feedback regarding both the good and the bad. We hope you will give us another chance to give you the better experience you deserve. Kind regards, Samuli, Hotel Manager

This was our first hotel on our 4-hotel 6-night staycation in Helsinki. The hotel is conveniently located next to the Meilahti Hospital area. My partner had an early morning check-up there and it was practical to stay the previous night nearby. Also in April, there was a point offer -50% off at this hotel. So one night was just 10000 Scandic points. Point stays are usually for standard rooms but as my partner is a Scandic TOP Level member, we were upgraded to a superior room. These rooms are spacious corner rooms with plenty of windows. It is nice that there are also windows in the bathroom. Probably because of the support column, it has been challenging to place the furniture. So the television could be watched only from the bed, not from the sofa or chair. The breakfast was pleasantly calm and had a good selection of food.

TLDR: All good Our family spent here three nights and we were happy. First of all: air con! The hotel is pretty new and everything is newish, so no worries whatsoever. Location is ok, there are few trams and many busses to city center. There are some parking spots next to the hotel, but not too many. The only reason I don’t give this hotel five stars is that there seemed to be some shady bunch doing business in the front door every now and then, so it wasn’t super comfortable going in and out with kids. Otherwise the area is ok, mainly hospitals. There is a supermarket and Burger King in the same building, but we didn’t visit them, The hotel is also a patient hotel for hospitals in the area and attracts also other longer staying customers. To us that was a good deal, as this means that the hotel has a free of charge laundromat to use. They also have more take away options in the restaurant for all quests to use. If you wonder if this makes your stay feel like you’re staying at a hospital, no worries - only thing you may notice is some tired new parents getting take away breakfast. The hotel is quiet. Service and breakfast are basic Scandic, but I have to mention breakfast staff (specially Mon-Fri team and blond waitress!) that made everything smooth and clean without looking stressed out. That is a big thing - many times breakfast gang seems stressed and busy, but this time not, even though it was holiday/baby season. So well done - I hope your bosses read this, too. :) Other thing was cleaners in the reception, they were all smiles and nice service every single time. We’ve been quite a many Scandics and this is one of our faves. Will recommend this hotel to all of our friends looking for a reasonable priced hotel in Helsinki.

We stayed two nights in the best room category 'Superior Best View'. These bright corner rooms are located on the top floors. There are 11 floors. We got our room from the 10th floor, towards the city center. There were plenty of windows. Even the bathroom had two. Furniture and TV placement could have been more practical. TV could only be watched from the bed. On arrival, one coffee cup was dirty. The next day, room cleaning was done well. The breakfast was pleasantly calm and the food selection was good. Our stay had very good value for the senior rate of 119 euros.

Went to stay for one night which turned out to be very disappointing. The room seemed like it was straight from the 70-80's, plain room... nothing else (no coffee/tea possibilities), tv which is slow as f*** (probably 30 years old). breakfast which was packed in take away bags and customer service very bad aswell.. Can't recommend this place. Avoid.
