Hobo Helsinki

Amazing location just a short walk from the train station and right in the centre of shops and restaurants. Another short walk to the ferry to take the trip to suomenlinna fortress. We were a family of 5 and we stayed in the large room and there was plenty of room for us (ages 9,7 and 2). The staff were super friendly and more than happy to help. The breakfast was lovely. Just to note for Irish people and possible British people when they say breakfast finishes at 10 they mean they close the doors and you have to leave, it’s not that they stop serving at 10 and you can finish. That’s not a criticism just a difference between how things work.

Location: Hotel is near down town, near the harbour to Suomellina and other destinations, near several main buildings, historical and traditional (cathedral and ortodox church, markets, bus stops to everywhere, commercial centers, tradicional and modern restaurants, Museums, Libraries (Academic by Alvar Aalto), a little bit far were important and impactfull buildings and constructions (Finlandia Hall by Alvar Aalto), Parliament, Stone church, Silence church, Sybellious statue, Olimpic Stadium, Terminal to Tallin-Estonia). Breakfast was good, diverse, clean, fresh, with quality; coffee was good and several degrees of strenght. Room was tinny, good for young people. We really enjoyed the concept of modernity, simplicity and practicalness in decoration. It was well equiped and had good amenities. We felt cuddled because we stood 2 nights, went to another city and have returned. When we arrived, the personal had left a gentle post card, personalized with some candies. It was really nice and sweet :-) Personal were very nice and polite, and helpfull eveytime we need an explication. We have dinner twice and the responsible for the snackbar was really sociable and tried to help us to solve a problem of communication with TiketMaster. Once we found 2 ladies artists staying at the hotel. In that night we have found who they were at the event, and they were really socialble and invited us to take some photos. They were presenter and singer, belonged to the Tour "Hans Zimmer and Others", they made voices on Zimmer's Moovies like King Lion, Dune, and Caribean Pirates.

We stayed at Hobo for two days. The staff was very friendly and communicative over messages when I needed a late check-in on the arrival day. The facilities, look & feel, and design were fantastic. The attention to detail was incredible, including the building, rooms, amenities, etc. The rooms were super clean and comfortable. The hotel is a short walk from the train station so we could easily carry our bags without additional transportation. It is also located in the heart of the city, close to all tourist spots. We ended up getting breakfast at the hotel, it was delicious, and many options for vegetarians, vegans, and non-vegetarians alike. I would highly recommend this place for short and long-term stays.

This is a lovely, quirky hotel right in the centre and within easy walking distance to the train station, to the South Harbour and to many of the sights. The staff team is young and very friendly. Despite the young and lively image of the hotel, I felt very comfortable as a somewhat more mature person, and found that there was a nice mix of guests. There's a sizeable but cosy bar downstairs (thankfully, no loud music while I was there) which also serves delicious food in the evenings - very convenient for tired solo travellers! I had booked a sleeper room, which was perfect for my requirements, with a stylish bathroom and a very comfortable bed - and it was very quiet. The breakfast buffet was excellent with a range of delicious choices.

Fantastic location and a very cute and trendy hotel! The breakfast was phenomenal- definitely make sure you get it. We were recommended this hotel by a friend that is a Finnish local specifically for the breakfast and it did not disappoint. The staff were lovely and even gave us an upgrade because we were visiting over our birthdays - which was a very kind touch that made everything feel even more wonderful. The location is great and the city has so much to offer. After staying and seeing how great the hotel was, we thought the value for money is something you really couldn’t beat. If you are coming to the city I could not recommend this stay more.

Amazing location, great vibes, enjoyed the coworking space (good wifi, not too busy at all) overlooking the main street, room was nice and comfy. Loved loved loved the food, thanks to the kitchen team — the food was amazing, lots of options, really well cooked and delicious, and special kudos for the fermented veggies!

- As central a location as it gets, right next to Kamp hotel and gallery. - Others might put this in the negative column but I actually liked their "modern" stance whereby the default position is that your room won't be cleaned everyday unless you specifically ask for it. Let's face it, no one needs their room cleaned during 2-3 night stays. - The hotel is fairly new so everything is still very fresh (Dec 2024), bathroom shower very good. - The breakfast is very good and although (see below)

Well this hotel was a real surprise for me.I suddenly had to stay for an extra night in Helsinki due to a change of plans and I booked a simple, as I thought ,sleep room there.However, I found myself in an amazing room, fully equipped, with two bathrooms, all the necessities, very clean, warm and quiet.It is also right in the city centre, nearby to literally everything.The price is absolutely reasonable and the staff at the reception were incredibly polite and friendly and also kind to let me know what the hotel has to offer.Also, the breakfast was a huge surprise.It was really delicious.
