What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Radisson RED Helsinki makes a bold statement just steps from Central Station, with industrial-chic interiors by Finnish design studio Fyra and views over leafy Kaisaniemi Park.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Kaisaniemi Park and the historic Botanic Garden sit right outside. Helsinki Central Station is just a short walk away.
The rooms
Exposed concrete and Finnish photography line the rooms, where square windows look out onto the park or street.
The sauna and gym
Stepped timber benches line the traditional Finnish sauna, and the gym has cardio machines and hanging punching bags.
Restaurant
RED Bar & Kitchen
Fluted banquettes look out toward the park, and the kitchen serves local seasonal dishes under glowing red neon.
At the table
A grab-and-go deli counter by reception has quick drinks and takeaway bites under warm red alcove lights.
How it began

The hotel stands on the former site of Säätalo, the 1960s headquarters of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene

Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
