Backstory
Built in 1936 by architect Bertel Liljeqvist as a seamen home, the brick structure later served as commercial offices before its boutique conversion.
Eat & drink
Mornings center on Nordic breakfast spreads in the open-plan dining room, while the lobby bar pours coffee and evening wine into the courtyard.
The neighborhood
Tucked along quiet Fabianinkatu in Kaartinkaupunki, the hotel sits a short walk from Kasarmitori square and the Design District's independent boutiques.
“A residential, almost apartment-like feel, and a sense of coziness and peace that stands in stark contrast to the bustle of the nearby harbor and city center.”
