Sokos Hotel Vaakuna ReviewBuilt for the Helsinki Olympics in 1952 and still going strong, this centrally located, curve-sided Helsinki hotel is atop a local landmark, the Sokos department store. Some of the rooms overlook the main rail terminal and its bustling square. Despite frequent renovations, the interior remains deliberately configured as a period piece of what Finland's superb sense of design looked like in the 1950s. The buffet breakfast is served on the 10th floor rooftop terrace. Guest rooms are midsize to spacious, with well-maintained bathrooms. There is no charge for a child under 5 sharing a room with a parent using existing bedding. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.

| 3 stars | Frommer's Exceptional |
Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
