More about this place
Home Hotel Katajanokka offers a former-prison hotel in Katajanokka, retaining its distinctive historic setting.
The former 1837 prison provides a distinctive red-brick setting, with Restaurant Linnankellari serving breakfast, afternoon fika and dinner as part of the stated overnight offer. A gym and parking add practical facilities. The island neighbourhood is quieter than the station area, so allow time for tram or walking journeys across the centre.
