Hotel Indigo Helsinki - Boulevard

Very nice and helpful staff.

Excellent location. Modern style hotel. Lobby is very charming and trendy. The rooms were super clean and also modern style. Walking distance to many restraints and bars, including Ekberg the oldest bakery in Finland and Kaisler a world renowned beer restaurant.

I was in Helsinki for a layover and decided to get a hotel. After a long flight, I didn’t explore too much, but the hotel is fairly close to the central train station and an easy walk to the center filled with shops and restaurants. Seems like a nice quiet neighborhood and I saw a park nearby. My room was nice. Had all the essentials minus a coffee maker, but I wouldn’t have used one on this trip anyway. There didn’t seem to be any temperature control which is a bit inconvenient. I was too warm and dried out with the heat. Overall, had a good one night stay.

All was good until the checkout. A small tumbler was accidentally broken and the front desk staff made a huge, humiliating issue about it. Parking was also very cramped: very tiny spots in a convoluted underground garage, no automatic key access either.

Nice cozy hotel close to the center, easy to find and accesible by Bus or Tram. Perfect for weekend getaway from home ;)
