Everything perfect

I had a super experience in this hotel. I arrived during the evening and had a connecting flight early the morning after. The hotel has a free shuttle service that is really easy to find and drivers were very courteous. It can also be booked for the morning after back to the airport. All staff at the hotel, from reception to restaurant were very competent and extremely kind. George served me dinner and I found him of great professionality and attention. Rooms were spotless and very comfy bed. I had a good and relaxing experience and I cannot recommend enough.

I visited the Pilot Airport Hotel on a business trip and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. My room was small but cosy and contained everything I needed on my business trip. It was quiet, very comfortable bed and bathroom and excellent WIFI connection to do my work.

The biggest asset of this hotel is its exceptionally polite and helpful staff who really made me feel so welcome during my stay.

The breakfast buffet was very nice and the restaurant offers delicious food. Outside the hotel you have excellent bus connections to Helsinki and the staff is more than willing to help you pick the sights worth seeing.

They will definitely be seeing me again in the future.

Room tip: Any room would be suitable

Stayed here as we needed to sleep a little between long travel days. They say they are under renovation but come on! It looks like it is from a horror movie, all entrances covered in plastic and restaurant and reception hidden in a musty basement. No air conditioning. Told them when we arrived around midnight that I need to take 6 am transfer bus but my husband will stay longer as his schedule is better than mine. We made a joke “at least one of us can sleep”. I left as scheduled with the bus. They called my husband to wake him up at 6.05 to ask why he has not checked out as he was supposed to take bus 6 AM. He wasn’t. In my opinion when two people share a (prepaid) hotel room it is not required to check out individually...So no sleeping for anyone in this hotel? Cannot recommend. With the same price you can stay in a functioning hotel so no reason to go to this construction site with unwanted wake up calls.

The hotel is UNDER RENOVATION,until the summer 2020.Nobody mentioned this fact,so we arrived on the 19/1/20,through the back door,the reception was in the lower floor(basement?),the floor that we stayed,was under renovation,and in the morning we had to carry our bags all around the hotel to the shuttle bus,in the cold.NOT AGAIN!
They should mention this fact instead of arriving at the hotel,and finding a sign"we are under renovation,we are sorry for the disturbance".Call them before booking!

Room tip: call the reception before booking.

Small but comfortable room, good bed, big TV, many shelves. Great breakfast, nice terrace in the breakfast area, the lady who served breakfast was very kind and helpful. Very important to me - coffee, tea and water in the lobby 24/7. Airport shuttle service every half an hour. No air conditioning, but I didn't need it in the end of August.
Only one thing I didn't like - the glass shower door covers just half the shower, so the bathroom floor gets wet easily.

Room tip: It was very quiet in the very end of the corridor.

The Pilotti has a really cool airport theme throughout the hotel. The rooms are fairly small but are surely comfortable enough for a short transit stay. The staff is great at super late check-ins and super early check-outs. The breakfast is excellent with sumptuous options. The hotel conveniently offers free shuttle to and from the airport every half an hour although the stop at the airport is a bit of a challenge to find but I guess this is more an airport rather than a hotel issue. Would happily return for another transit stay in Helsinki.

Dear guest,

thank you for your kind comments. We are very happy to know that you enjoyed your stay at Hotel Pilotti. Nice that you mentioned and noticed airport theme, we want our guests to have the right kind of mood for travelling. What comes to the platform at the airport, there have been changes lately, as they are making large renovations. All the bus stops were moved a bit further from the terminal. You find a map from our home page. We really hope you’ll have another chance to come and stay with us. We look forward!

Kind regards,
Mari J/ Guest Relations
