Hotel Arthur

When my mother and I were in trouble, staff of hotel （reception）gave us a lot of help timely and warmly. We really appreciate their help. For location, the hotel near the train station (has a shortcut, just have a few stairs) and subway station (University of Helsinki)

Everything was good except breakfast repeat the same . Staff were friendly, willing to help even from reception and house keeping. Waitress in the breakfast area not friendly ( some of them). Besides those, everything was good. Location very good and near to train/ shuttle bus to airport.

I have stayed at the Arthur many times and the staff are always pleasant and as helpful as possible. The food is good, nothing fancy but adequate; the rooms are well maintained. The location for looking around central Helsinki is excellent. This time I drew the short straw in room 559 which was small and had the shower almost above the toilet bowl but on my many previous visits I have had better rooms. I will be returning to the Hotel Arthur.

It is fairly near to the railway station, and there are many restaurants along the path leading to the hotel. Functional, but flooring and wall are a bit old in our room and kinda old. However, we did have a good stay in the hotel and they kindly helped to store our luggage as well. Breakfast spread is wonderful and wifi is strong.

The hotel is a walking distance from the train station..very convenient as groceries & restaurants are all within reach.. the room is small with basic needs only eg towels & liquid soap/shampoo. Breakfast is good to start the day..staffs were polite. There is a storage room where you can leave your suitcase for collection in case you still return back to Helsinki.

We had only 1 night in Helsinki. Super convenient location, 5 mins from the main train station and 10 mins to the main attractions. Clean and friendly staff. Would stay again for a short stint in Helsinki.

Arthur is one of the cheaper accommodation options in Helsinki - but then one should not expect a luxury hotel. If you just need a clean, simple bed and a breakfast to fill your tummy, Arthur is a good option. The location at walking distance from the Central Railways Station is great, staff are friendly, and in general the atmosphere is nice. But then... I first stayed in a room facing Kaisaniemenkatu, and the traffic noise was just too much for me to sleep. That problem was sorted out, though, by changing my room. As there is no aircon, the rooms got very hot - but then, this summer was exceptionally hot anyway. The rooms are quite small, even by Finnish standards. Breakfast was very basic, and as the breakfast room got very crowded, the atmosphere was like that of a school canteen. The hotel was adequate, and I guess good value for what you pay for, but paying a bit more and going somewhere else you could probably see a difference.

Was in a 23-hour stopover in Helsinki, so I needed a place to rest and relax near the Central Railway Station where the Finnair City Bus also runs to. Its central location, access to good food, transportation hubs, etc., makes it a great deal. I had a small room, but it was immaculate. It's easily excusable that in a historic building that it doesn't have AC in every room, even though July is the hottest month of the year. The breakfast restaurant seems lively with guests from all around the regions.

Pros: -location: next to train station, inside city center, walking distance to all attractions (central market, church, cathedral...) -breakfast: delicious, wide variety of choice, hot food -averall clean Cons: -the room are 'OLD' style... -rooms looks to be inside and 'OLD' corridor -mattress is too soft, not comfortable... Tips: -I would recommend to go there for a short stay in Helsinki

Arthur Hotel is located in the city centre. One tram and metro stop next to the central station. With a single ticket and within 60 minutes, I travelled to the airport by taking metro then bus. Actually it took around 40 minutes. It is also only 5 minutes walk from the hotel to the central station. Also 5 minutes walk to the landmark church. Room offered was big enough for dancing. Staff were nice to render help also! I will absolutely stay in this hotel if I go Helsinki again.

I stayed in a tiny economic room, but still it was comfortable enough. Next time I will choose a bigger one. The breakfast had a good variety and the staff very courteous and friendly. It was a bit difficult to find it at first, but actually it's well located (make sure to check the address from google maps before so you know exactly where you are going).

Location was just perfect. It was safe city anyway but I came back to the hotel around 4am but it was totally fine. It's very close to Central Station(3-minute-walk)so it's super easy to look around the city in a short time. Breakfast was good but for a vegetarian(yes, I am), there was not many things to eat. :( But for not vegetarians, it looked great!

We got a room at the 9th floor which is quiet and spacious. It looks newly renovated. The toilet is large and comfortable. Also the hotel is 2 min from the Kaisinemi Metro and the tram station. Can walk to the city too. Excellent shopping and eateries, though the price in Euro is quite steep.Value for money. We kept our luggage in safe storage space in the hotel as we departed very late on our last day. Staff are friendly and informative.

We were very happy with the rooms they were clean and tidy and the staff were very helpful and friendly. A lovely buffet breakfast with a good variety to choose from. The location was outstanding everything in walking distance, buses and central railway station within 500 mtrs. Its in central city so you also have your shops and restaurants close by. I found it very good value for your money. We would certainly stay there again and would strongly recommend it.

room is very spacious. hotel is conveniently located in city centre. for just 35 euros per person inclusive of a good spread of conntinental breakfast, this is a very good value for money hotel well suited for a short stay there's direct airport transfer via public bus 615 and 620 for just euros each way. 615 is faster taking just about 30 minutes without traffic jam

The hotel has a great location, and is within walking distance to the Central Station, where you can take buses, trains and even trams to other parts of the city or country. It is also within walking distance to most of the sight seeing attractions, and of course shopping complexes. For those who like walking, you will find everything easily accessible. And for those who don't, there is always the tram, namely 3B and 3T, which are nice routes for sight seeing.

Walking distance (abt 8min) to Helsinki Main Train station and near to metro station (abt4min). There's a Thai restaurant opposite the hotel which serve nice thai food. There's also supermart , chinese food at the underground near the metro station. Hotel itself is quite old and the elevator was small which kind of out-dated. Room is small but with basic needs. No kettle , need to borrow from reception. Staffs at reception was polite and helpful.

Good:the hotel is close to the city center, the sauna room is clean but you need to pay extra for this. Need to improve: The facility are quite old and the elevators were out-dated. When everyone was holding tons of luggages you still need to open the elevator door by hands. The restaurant is ridiculous. We paid more to stay in this hotel compare to other cheaper hotel because it said it provides breakfast. We stayed there 3 nights, 3 days the breakfast are exactly the same: salad, yogurt, bread, meatball, eggs and rice pie. Was the breakfast the same everyday since 1970s same as the hotel? When we ask for water to feel the bottle, the waitress said I need to pay 1.5€ for the water, they have never told the hotel provide free water just outside the restaurant front door. So funny the way they ask for the money when the Finnish government is promoting free water in the airport. The minibar has no electricity. They expect customer would consume the drinks which was warm and dusty.

In city centre and close to railway station, bus and tram. Value for money and breakfast buffet is good before you start your day in Helsinki. Within walking distance to all attractions. Staff are helpful.

It is close to the railway station and almost every site of Helsinki is within the walking distance. Triple room is really big and new, the staff is nice. There are various food in the breasfast and taste good. Highly recommend!
