I love the location and the quiet. Even though I (without a car) need to walk uphill for 15 minutes from the train station to the hotel, I do it happily to be near Helsinki's lovely rocky outcroppings (kalliot). I've been here three times and each time, it's the best view outside my window that I can get in Hki, in my opinion. There's a large shopping center at the train station and so, everything one would need. If you come here, don't miss a chance to walk on top of Vallikallio, WWI fortifications trenches built into the rock. They are just behind the hotel. Gives a sense of history.
