Hilton Helsinki Strand

Frommer's Review

This is one of our preferred modern hotels in Helsinki. Set at the edge of the water behind a bay-windowed facade of beige and brown brick, it has the most dramatic atrium in the capital, festooned with plants and featuring glass elevators. An octagonal shape is repeated throughout the hotel's design. The rooms, each renovated in 2005, were conceived by some of Finland's best talent and decorated with local designs, including hand-woven wall hangings and in some cases, parquet floors. Marble from Lapland was used extensively. Half the well-furnished guest rooms provide views of the harbor. The spacious units have medium-size bathrooms with robes, toiletries, and tub/shower combos.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; indoor pool; sauna with exercise room/gym, massage service; 24-hr. room service; babysitting; laundry service/dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility
