What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The rooms are stylish, spare but not stark, with luxe Unikulma beds and modern bathrooms.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The market stalls of Kauppatori and the green lawns of Esplanadi Park sit just around the corner.
The rooms
Custom Unikulma beds and blond wood accents fill the rooms, looking out onto the courtyard or Fabianinkatu.
The gym
Cardio machines and free weights are open around the clock, with complimentary city bicycles ready for the street.
Dogs stay too.
Bar Runar
Named after the family dog, this bar mixes seasonal cocktails with Finnish berries and herbs from the courtyard greenhouse.
At the table
Mornings center on the long communal table, laid with organic porridge, fresh rye bread, and local cheeses.
