Hotel F6

Very nice hotel in great location. Super breakfast. Excellent staff. Kept clean. Big shower. Very comfortable beds. We were upgraded to very large deluxe room (semi suite) with 2 TV’s, sofa, dining table. Loved it all except area rug in sitting/tv area was stained with dog urine. I’d think if shampooing rug didn’t clean, they should have replaced — or I’d rather of had wood floors which were in rest of suite. Half block from Main city Esplandi Park, shopping, great restaurants and main sightseeing harbor and transportation. Would have been 5-star if that area rug were gone (suite 205). Overlooked courtyard. Very quiet.

Hotel F6 is a lovely base for exploring Helsinki. It’s tucked away in a quiet side street but just a 5-minute walk from the harbour, where ferries leave for the archipelago and various boat tours depart. The central station is about 15 minutes away on foot, and tram and bus stops are just a short stroll. Most major sights in Helsinki’s city centre are within easy walking distance, making it simple to explore the city on foot. And if needed, tram lines 2 and 3 offer convenient access to many destinations. The hotel itself is set in a building that has been beautifully renovated with a modern, stylish touch. My room on the fourth floor was spacious and cozy, with a large, comfortable bed and a generous walk-in shower. A bathrobe and refillable Rituals toiletries added a nice touch of comfort. If I could wish for one small improvement, it would be a coffee machine in the room. There was a kettle, which is helpful, but a machine would have been a bit more convenient. The staff were consistently friendly and welcoming, and the breakfast was excellent – fresh, varied, and clearly made with care. There’s also a bar integrated into the hotel (though independently run), serving great cocktails in a relaxed atmosphere. Again, friendly service all around.

I can’t say enough good things about Hotel F6. We decided to splurge a little, and it was worth every penny and more — from the breakfast and the staff to the bar, the bed, the room, and especially the shower. Honestly, it’s the best hotel shower I’ve ever used anywhere in the world. Truly amazing. Our whole group loved every part of the stay.

The staff and the breakfast were remarkable. Both absolute top quality! Receptionists were always quick to help/recommend and made sure the information was accurate and easy to follow. Every item and aspect of breakfast was the best quality you can get. The variety, freshness, presentation was breathtaking. Breakfast staff was cheerful polite and yet unobtrusive. The lady at the bar at night was fun, inventive, joking, cool, as if a friend who is into cocktails has you over for drinks. Brilliant encounters at every contact.

Oh my! This is a multi-award winning hotel for good reason. The rooms are beautiful, in look & feel. The furnishings are so tasteful and charming; the bed and linens superlative. From the moment we stepped to the Reception Desk, we were greeted with warmth, which was followed with helpful suggestions & assistance. The breakfast buffet is a work of art, with dozens of dishes beautifully displayed & constantly replenished. (Best herring I’ve ever eaten.) The housekeeping staff was also exceptional and the hotel’s location is hard to beat. I wish Helsinki were closer so we could be regulars at F6. It is a gorgeous hotel.

With only one night in Helsinki, Hotel F6 was definitely the right choice. The central location made it easy to sightsee all day. I have rarely encountered such helpful, polite and friendly staff. Luke at the front desk was super helpful checking us in late at night. He sent us an email with recommendations for our day in Helsinki. I unfortunately do not remember the name of the young lady the next day, in the afternoon (7/26/25) at the front desk who recommended a restaurant for dinner. She was very helpful and did not steer us wrong. We had a wonderful authentic Finnish dinner at a great spot. The room was lovely, modern and beautifully decorated. Delicious breakfast as well. The staff was also lovely during breakfast. 5 stars to Hotel F6! I highly recommend this hotel.

Hotel F6 is truly a gem in the heart of the city! The location couldn’t be more perfect, right in the city center, making it easy to explore everything on foot. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, creating such a warm and positive atmosphere from the moment I arrived. My room was spacious, comfortable, and spotlessly clean, offering the perfect place to relax after a day out. The breakfast was absolutely amazing, fresh, delicious, and with plenty of options to start the day right. The overall environment of the hotel is cozy and inviting, and you can tell the team genuinely cares about their guests. I would highly recommend Hotel F6 to anyone visiting the city and will definitely stay here again!

The hotel is charming - classic and modern, winding staircase, mood lighting - but the people make the place. That includes the team at breakfast, the front desk, and the bar. Everyone was friendly and welcoming to us as travelers. Highly recommend F6 to anyone coming through Helsinki.... Thanks so much!

The best hotel EVER. Clean, stylish rooms, super bathroom/shower, has fridge, kettle and minibar. Fluffy comforters. Everything you need. Super nice, friendly staff. Great location, close to Esplanade, shops and restaurants galore. Yet very quiet. The best part is the included breakfast which has every possible item you'd ever want. Great coffee, breads, cheeses and meats, yogurt, cereals hot and cold, smoked fish, fruit, vegetables, sweets. Incredible. You won't need to eat again til dinner time. My only issue was the comforters were too warm in summer. I like to sleep cool. When I got hot I kicked them off, but then got chilly. Would have preferred a simple summer blanket. That is all!

Beautiful hotel, great location. I love that there are bikes to use (with helmets!) and breakfast is quite delightful. Our room was large and very quiet and the AC worked very well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

This is a nice hotel located in Helsinki. It is in a good location and very walkable to so many shops, restaurants, landmarks, and the train stations. The breakfast in the morning is quite good. I really enjoyed the yogurt and the porridge. The yogurt was very smooth and not sweet. I would pair them with the berries. The porridge was quite good and reminded me of smooth oatmeal, but way better. I did add a pinch of sugar. I also liked the egg butter on the bread. The regular butter was also delicious. The fruit was sweet especially the pineapple. For eggs they had hard boiled eggs which I don't like. I kind of wish they had scrambled eggs but that is okay, maybe more of an American thing. The meat was mostly cold cuts and salami which were tasty. I also thought the grilled vegetables were not bad either although interesting that they were cold. The latte from the coffee machine was also very yummy. The room itself was quite nice and clean. The shower was large. The bed was comfy. The only funny quirk was that our room was accessible by walking across an open courtyard so it can be a bit chilly going to and from the lobby. The staff is very friendly. We actually arrived quite late around 2AM. We were hungry and asked the staff for any food options. The person at the front desk mentioned they could order McDonald's or other fast food via an app or they could go to the back kitchen to make a sandwich for us. That was so nice of him and the food was great! We were so grateful for his kindness!

Perfectly decent hotel, my issue was with the breakfast. They have all these wonderful Finnish berries and such but no real yogurt to put them on. Kind of unheard of in this part of the world. The entire selection was about six different kinds of vegan and lactose-free irregular yogurts. I love that they have this for vegans (I'm vegetarian myself), but not having any regular yogurt at all is simply excessive for a place not advertising itself as a vegan buffet. In the several days I was there they never put any out, even after I mentioned it to the breakfast people.

Loved this place. Our room was beautiful, clean, and cozy. The staff were all really friendly. The breakfast was really good especially if you're used to American continental breakfasts lol. Highly recommend staying here. If you do, have dinner/drinks at The Cock a few doors down.

Hands down the best hotel in Helsinki. I travel to Finland about 2-3 times a year and have stayed in a number of the bigger and more botique hotels in the city. F6 is far and away the best on so many levels. Amazing staff, clean, cool and modern rooms and common areas, fun bar/restaurant next door. I cannot say enough great things about Hotel F6! The room service is exceptional and they provide free bike rentals to explore this amazing city. Their breakfast is really good, too. The staff are attentive and go out of their way to accommodate guests and make them feel at home. I highly recommend the hotel over the others in the city.

Hotel F6 is an excellent modern boutique hotel with friendly staff. I recently stayed at F6 for 10 nights. It's easily the best hotel I've experienced in Helsinki, and I've stayed in the city several times. The rooms are clean, modern, and luxurious. The bathrooms are modern and sleek, with walk in showers. The beds are comfortable and spacious, and the rooms have blackout blinds - a critical component for a city that stays light most hours of the summer. The staff are unbelievably friendly and accommodating - you probably won't find a better team at any hotel in the world. The hotel grounds are also nice, and the breakfasts are top notch. Additionally, the hotel is perfectly located in the heart of the city. It's easy to walk or bike just about anywhere, and the hotel has bikes on hand for free rental. This place is a gem!
