Curated byRomanUpdated I’d keep Scandic Grand Central Helsinki in mind for a stay in Helsinki.
More about this place
Scandic Grand Central Helsinki offers a central historic-building stay with both original-wing and newer room categories. It is a practical rail-connected city base, with family categories available; choose the wing and layout rather than assuming identical architecture throughout.
Rooms in the original Art Nouveau building have a different character from those in the modern extension, so choose the category for its actual layout. A restaurant, bar and loan bicycles support a city stay. The station-area position is especially useful for rail arrivals and airport trains; check the room rate for breakfast and cancellation terms.
