Eurohostel

Great location. 2 min walk from the Viking line, and an easy tram ride to the other ferries. Central location where you can walk everywhere. Spotless. Safe. Friendly. HI members get a discount. The sauna was FANTASTiC; I had one very day. Well equipped kitchen. I had a basic room, and it was very quiet. Rooms are very plain but comfortable; rooms could use a few hooks.

This hostel absolutely does the job. Great location a short tram ride into town or a little walk. Our room (twin budget) was absolutely fine, a good size and what you'd expect. Kitchens were small with 3 kitchens for the whole place, no ovens but a microwave and 4 hobs. Morning sauna was a real treat. Breakfast was simple and overpriced but nice to have the option.

Very adequate hostel. Rooms give what you need and helpful 24hr desk. Morning sauna is a bonus. Very helpful location a short tram into town. Bathrooms and kitchen fine. Breakfast and restaurant expensive for what you get.

Eurohostel Helsinki turned out to be a solid choice for budget-friendly accommodation in the city. The hostel offers a good variety of rooms – from dorms to singles and twins – so you can choose depending on your budget and comfort level. I found it well located in Katajanokka, just a short walk or tram ride to the center and main sights. There are tram stops right outside, which makes getting around very easy. Despite being a hostel, it’s quiet and peaceful, with decent soundproofing that ensures a good night’s rest. The lockers are large and practical, which is especially handy if you’re traveling with a big backpack or suitcase. For value in Helsinki, Eurohostel is hard to beat. Prices are reasonable compared to the city average, and you even get some nice extras. The free morning sauna (7–10am) was a fantastic bonus and something very Finnish to enjoy. The staff were very friendly and helpful, always ready to give tips about the city and transport. Breakfast was available as a buffet – quite basic, but enough to start the day. If you’re planning to enjoy the nightlife, the hostel is also in a walkable distance to bars and clubs, plus Helsinki has night tram/bus lines to get you back safely if you stay out late. Overall, a reliable, affordable, and comfortable option in Helsinki. Great location, helpful staff, and some unique perks like the sauna make it stand out, even if the breakfast could be more varied.

Long time since i stayed in a hostel but it was fine. Room was a bit far from the bathroom than I'd have liked but I managed. Bonus was the free sauna between 0700-1000 and the decent kitchen faciilities. Laundry too if needed

Great value and location to Viking Ferries and to the city of Helsinki itself! Everything was exactly as depicted. Room was clean and bright! Staff was also lovely! Highly recommend! Will stay again!

I had a great stay! Staff is nice and friendly, 24 hour reception, it's a huge hostel with many floors. Everything you need in a hostel until the 2 days where it's quite hot which I happened to be there for. I can't fault them for not having fans or ac, because 99% of the time it's not needed. I liked the location, close to ferry (Go on the water!) it was quiet. I stayed in a shared double which had plenty of space, beds are decently comfortable. Towels wrap all around your waist! (Simple joys in hostel life). I got some groceries and used the kitchen as Helsinki can get a bit expensive. Ps: they have signs everywhere to drink tap water, and it's excellent!

Just the perfect hostel. No complaints - just like the city, clean and beautiful. There is a sauna upstairs, and the location is pretty good in general, too. No need for public transport most of the time, as you can walk to the square in around 25 minutes. The 2-bed hostel dorms can be quite a good break from the multiple beds usually seen in most hostels, I would definitely recommend for Helsinki!

Best about this place: location! This hostel is in centre of town, walkable distance to major sites and good public transport connection to railwaystation/airport. What i liked, apart from what was already mentioned: - rooms very clean (bathrooms not so much) - price - facilities offered (sauna, wifi, kitchen etc) Only 3 stars because the bathrooms and hallway are very smelly.

This youth hostel is located down by the port. Without a car, you will need to grab the tram from Central Helsinki or you will have a long walk. The location is a little dull but the hostel is nice. When I stayed there they had a yummy breakfast buffet that was very cheap. The hostel was very quiet when I was there too and there isn't any street noise at all.

A pretty basic hostel, more like a hotel since there wasn't really a common room. There was a kitchen at the end of the hall of each floor, which we appreciated. There is also a sauna free for use, but only in the morning hours. Breakfast was a bummer, thought it was free but it's around 9 Euros (buffet style). Staff was very nice with arranging rides to the airport via taxi (especially for us, which was for around 4 in the morning). Location wise, it's not far from the train station (maybe a 20 min walk and there is a metro). Not out of the way, but not super convenient. Wifi is super fast (we were concerned before reading the prior yelp reviews but realized they were outdated).

I stayed here for 2.5 weeks while in town for a course. It's not horrible but not terrific either. The positive: relatively clean; easy access to downtown (if you don't mind walking a little or taking the tram); breakfast with good variety (oatmeal, yogurt, sandwich makings, two warm selections); fairly convenient if you arrive via ferry. The negative: I didn't sleep too well (noise from the tram and from the hallways); besides pots/pans, the kitchens are not well stocked (not enough dishes, and there aren't even salt/pepper/oil available); sauna closes early (at 9:30 pm); extremely slow internet (that costs 5 euro/day!); bathrooms which often had a sewer-like smell; inadequate laundry facilities (there are 2 washing machines that the hostel uses to wash all their pillows and comforters (they even dumped those items all over the laundry floor while I was trying to do laundry). There's no common space in which to hang out (and the kitchens close at 11 pm). The staff is friendly but not the most responsive: for instance, I asked them to change a light bulb that never got changed. I would stay here again if I had to (the price was right) but I would explore other options first.
