The eggs here were the best that I had in my week and a half stay in Finland. 3.5 stars.

The hotel and their pods are conveniently located, about a 5-minute walk from baggage claim/arrivals. Super comfy and spotlessly clean. We booked and paid online the day before -- easy peasy. On the day of our stay, we received an email with the PIN code to access the pod. Our reservation was for 4-hours, from noon - 4pm and cost €60. They have slightly smaller pods for 1-person that'll run ya €40. The code was activated exactly at the time of our reservation. Just a heads up... We arrived about 10-minutes early and the code did not work until noon on the dot. Restrooms are not far away in the hotel lobby/reception area. There is also an AMAZING food court area in the airport. We brought food from Pretty Boy Wingery and Lopez y Lopez back to the pod. The wi-fi was strong enough to stream a movie on the iPad and the beds (hubby took the couch folded down into a bed and I took the bed that pulled down from the wall) were comfy enough to sneak in an hour long nap. My only complaint is that damn hall/foyer light. It seems to be motion activated. So, it would turn on and shine into our pod anytime there was any movement in the hallway. Not a huge issue outside of nap time. It kept waking us up every time it turned back on. If you book a pod and want to get some serious sleep, pack an eye mask!

The hotel is a few steps away from the food court, the 24 hour supermarket, and also R Kioski where you can buy SIM cards. There an elevator to the hotel. We didn't purchase breakfast because we have airport lounge access. Check in and out was fast and easy. The rooms were bigger than we expected. We go the twin room with the beds at right angles so there was space for our luggage to open. The bathroom has a heated floor which was lovely. There's not really a separate show cubicle, just a curtain. My only tiny complaint is that you bump into the corner of the sink when you sit on the toilet. The sink should be a bit smaller or moved a little to the other side. This hotel is really conveniently located and the price was good too. We booked directly by emailing and got a much better rate than was available online on their site or 3rd party sites. Would definitely stay here again for an overnight layover.

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Holiday Inn Helsinki-Vantaa Airport two separate times during our…read moretrip to Finland, one night when we arrived and one night before our flight out of Helsinki to Amsterdam. The first visit was a three star visit, due to the lack of air conditioning (not mentioned by woman at the front desk when we checked in) and the very tiny room with the phone booth-sized shower. When I called to the front desk to ask how to turn on the air conditioning in the room, she simply said, "Sorry, it's not working at this time." She did not offer a fan, so we just opened the window. Unfortunately, it was quite warm all night, so we did not sleep well. The next morning, I chatted with the very friendly manager at the front desk and he was appalled that a fan was not offered. He said they have a "whole room of fans" for guests to use. I told him that we would be coming back for one more night at the end of our Finland trip and asked if he would note our file to offer a fan if the air conditioning was still inoperable at that time. He said he would do that for us. Fast forward to our second visit to this hotel. We were delighted to have been given a free upgrade to an Executive room. There was a fan already set up in the room (the AC was still not working very well). The room itself was huge, with a large bathroom and shower, a separate sitting area with a makeup mirror, as well as a free chocolate bar and two free cookies. Very nice! We were also given two free water bottles at the front desk (I'm at IHG member), which we weren't given on our first stay. I would definitely recommend paying extra for the breakfast! It begins at 5:00 am, in case you have an early flight. This was my favorite hotel breakfast on the trip. There were so many wonderful things, such as the Karelian pastries and egg butter (a delicacy in Finland), a wonderful berry coffee cake, and many hot items. Everything was delicious! The staff working at breakfast hours were very friendly and welcoming as well. One other nice feature of this hotel is the free airport shuttle. The pickup spot at the airport is bus stop #42. The shuttle arrives every 20 - 30 minutes and services the Holiday Inn and two Scandic hotels. The shuttle service from the hotels to the airport starts very early in the morning and was very convenient. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

We only stayed for about five hours but when we woke up for our early flight, the breakfast buffet was already out and ready. That's the first time I've been able to eat at a free hotel buffet so early! Another note is that the older woman at the night check-in was still there in the early morning to help us with breakfast. She was so warm and welcoming, that I had to ask if she was born in Finland. She was. I was surprised as we had gotten used to a kind of stand-offish, distantly polite Finnish personality but she was friendly and animated with lots of smiles. It was a perfect last moment before we left this beautiful country. Despite all Finnish airport hotels being kinda pricey, we'd stay again if in Helsinki Might see ya there.

The room was nice with good space, and a convenient kitchenette. I easily walked 15 mins to the grocery store in the mall and made food in the room. They even had bikes available for guest use. The only downsides were the shuttle and sound. At check in, the staff member marked me down for the shuttle since I needed one of the early times. She said it only goes at that early a time if requested. Since I'm extra attentive to time on travel days, I walked to the stop 15 mins before the scheduled time, looked on the other side of a tour bus to be sure I wasn't missing it, and saw no shuttle. I stayed where I was told it picks up, and when it didn't show up 7 mins after the scheduled time, asked at the desk if it was running behind. She said it already went and I must not have looked around. They said I would need to wait for the next shuttle, which cut my timing very close. However, I learned they don't actually wait for the scheduled time- they just go at whatever time they arrive at a stop and don't account for reservations which is very hard to plan for. I did not appreciate being blamed for not seeing it or being there on time when I could prove that I was. Also, in my room I could hear music and convos from other rooms through the walls/vents but thankfully people got quiet relatively early. Otherwise the stay met my needs and the space was nice.

The sound of the hvac humming all night like a tea kettle on simmer was annoying and the bag of chips and small split of wine is not complimentary and there's no note card saying one way or another so I asked. Oh well. It was a long hike to get there from the airport but all in all we were exhausted and with nothing to do at 11 pm we just went to bed.

Such a cute small place which a is accessible from the outside, they have a wonderful assortment of sweet and savory mouth watering items, drinks are coffee, teas, wine and beer.

Also had some toast as it looked so good freshly cut. They have a nice seating area next to the cafe inside or several tables and chairs outside, and as nice as it was outside I went out. Loved the carbs here! The scone was crumbly and zesty, studded with raisins. Washed down well with my glass of bubbly, coffee would be great too! The toast was thick and chewy and so good, not processed tasting at all, freshly baked with good ingredients. Sat outside with lots of birds eager for me to drop something, but I ate every crumb. So delicious. Great place to get a snack anytime. Trust me the choices will leave to wanting to go back.

I turned on the thermostat as it was warm upon arrival. I attempted to set my room temperature to 18C but it would only allow me to set at 19C minimum. I went out to see the town for a few hours and came back and the room was still quite warm. I notified the staff and the offered to move me to a cooler room which I accepted. The second room was nice as well but was much cooler. The hotel is conveniently located in the Helsinki City Center and many destinations are walkable. This hotel has two places to eat, a bakery and a breakfast restaurant (buffet-style). I didn't attempt to eat here outside of breakfast as several restaurants are also located within walking distance. I can't say enough how polite and pleasant the staff is here. Four stars!

The other problem with the room was, it was fairly dirty with smudges mud on the floor and another sign said it was not cleaned well at all. We requested a different room, and luckily it was better, but I would still say the cleanliness wasn't up to the standard I was hoping for for the price point level of the hotel. This hotel is definitely built for conferences and gathering large groups. You'll find meeting rooms, coworking spaces, and a large courtyard attached to the restaurant. It's hard to beat the location across the street from a park and only two blocks from the main Esplanade in Helsinki. The star of the show is definitely the complementary breakfast experience featuring fresh juice, nutrition, shots, crêpes, variety of overnight oats, and several hot dishes with mini being traditional finish offerings. I could've spent hours eating at the complementary breakfast -the courtyard seating outside topped it all off. I will probably stay here again for the breakfast alone. However, I'm a big believer that no how no matter how fancy the hotel room design, if it's not super clean, it doesn't really do it for me.
