Hotel Kämp

Frommer's Review

More visitors from the United States and Japan stay here than at any other hotel in Finland, joining the ranks of politicians and rock stars. Originally built in 1887, with a wing added in the 1960s and a radical upgrade shortly before its "rebirth," the hotel is behind an ornate red stone facade that's immediately adjacent to the city's most prestigious boulevard. Public areas are appropriately opulent, a combination of turn-of-the-20th-century grandeur and conservatively traditional decors, with lots of glistening hardwoods and polished stone. The large guest rooms are lavishly outfitted with elaborate curtains and reproductions of furniture from the early 19th century. Service, as you'd expect, is superb.
