Radisson Blu Aleksanteri Hotel

I’ve stayed at the Radisson Blu Aleksanteri Hotel several times, and it’s always an exceptional experience. The rooms are beautiful, elegant, and very comfortable. The service is consistently excellent — warm, professional, and attentive. The breakfast buffet is fantastic, with a great selection of fresh and delicious options to start the day right. I’ll definitely continue booking all my future stays here. Highly recommended!

Good hotel at great central location. If you get a room in the old part of the hotel the rooms are even better. But all keep a good standard. Breakfast is great and you find an egg chef on duty. Just a few hundred meters walk to the very center of Helsinki.

I have marked this hotel as my favourite place in helsinki. Everytime i come to helsinki, i book a room here just for the staff and service. Such cordial staff. I am sorry but i can't recall name of the staff at the reception, he is an old man very friendly, " Sir, if you are reading this, always a pleasure to meet you at the reception, your kindness is very contagious". But i will not limit to him, i will praise every staff at the counter. Everyone is very nice and kind. The rooms are nice, a bit old but that's because the building is old, but for me if service and staff is impeccable, everything else can be adjusted.

We stayed just one night at the start of a Baltic tour. The hotel was well located just 20 minutes walk to the harbour. Opposite the hotel was a decent supermarket and around the hotel were several restaurants and bars but nothing noisy. The room was a good size with walk in shower and a decent range of toiletries. Breakfast choice was also very good. Would stay again if visiting Helsinki.

The hotel is part modern and part almost ancient. Unfortunately for us, we were in the ancient side. The room was painted with very dark red paint and furnished with dated dark wood furniture. This made it really dark and dreary. The room was a decent size but only had a small double bed which wasn’t very comfortable. Three of the pillows were like rocks and one was ok. After a poor nights sleep I asked for different pillows and these were provided so the second night wasn’t as bad. The shower was fine but obviously not sealed correctly around the bottom so water flooded the bathroom after each shower. The staff however, were lovely. The breakfast was excellent and I would recommend the hotel but make sure you ask for a modern room.

We stayed 2 nights in this big and well cured hotel, our room was in the “old” part of the hotel and despite it seems like an you old hotel room was comfortable. Looking at the room in the photo I would have preferred to be in another part of the hotel. |The staff was very kind and available, the bar is good. However we had been asked if we wanted our room to be cleaned and despite we answered yes no one did it. |Overall this experience was sufficiently good but I’ll suggest to the hotel to renovate a bit the rooms in the “old” part and to be more careful about the cleaning.

I had a wonderful stay at the Radisson Blu Aleksanteri Hotel in Helsinki. The hotel is very nice and perfectly located, with everything important within walking distance, which made exploring the city effortless. The rooms were tidy, clean, and very comfortable, providing a great place to relax after a day out. When I arrived, there was a small hiccup as the staff couldn’t immediately find my booking. However, they were extremely friendly and did everything they could to resolve the situation quickly, which left me with a very positive impression of their service. The included breakfast was excellent with a wide variety of options, and the gym and sauna in the hotel were real highlights of my stay. Overall, this hotel is a perfect choice for a short trip, whether for business or traveling solo — I’d happily return.

Soundproofed rooms, very silent. Air conditioner can be set to 19 degrees, which is good (usually you can set it till 21°). The breakfast is splendid. Sauna is okeish, you need to make serious efforts to raise the temperature at least to 85°, but not goind higher unfortunately. Gentle personnel.

This hotel is located in the middle of downtown Helsinki, about a 15 minute cab drive from the train station (after the 30 min train ride from the Vantaa airport). Clean minimalistic modern design that you would expect from Scandinavians. Service is very friendly. BTW, everyone speaks English in Finland. The room is on the cozy side but they provide everything a wary traveler could want, including a stocked fridge (not complimentary), and toiletries in the bathroom. They have a 24-hour room service menu, TV, and WiFi. The bed was large and comfortable. The bath was a little odd. It didn't have a shower curtain but rather a small glass screen that was about a foot long to prevent minor splashes from the spigot into the bathroom (which was completely tiled from floor to ceiling anyway). The downstairs restaurant offers a nice breakfast at an extra charge and are walking-distance to all the tourist locations in Helsinki. Very affordable (about $130 USD per night).

The newly opened Radisson Blu Aleksanteri Hotels is a good place to recharge when visiting Helsinki. While the hotel itself is part of an international chain it still includes many national themes. Furthermore I would characterize this as a boutique hotels as it really have some interesting design aspects. The rooms are pretty good. They still feels a bit old and worn, but they are comfortable - especially the bed. The areas around are really nice - e.g. the sauna. Divided into two sections - men and women - it includes a large locker room, many baths and a sauna. WiFi works on point too. Breakfast is served in their cozy public space on ground floor. This is really delicious. Not an average hotel breakfast buffet at all, and thank god - many hotels are changing this. A large variety of freshly baked bread, cold cuts, cheese and smoked salmon, yogurt with a large variety of seeds and nuts, eggs, bacon, sausage, porridge, smoothie, juices - yes basically everything. This isn't always good, but the quality here is still good. A lot of it is local produce which makes it even nicer to eat breakfast here. This new Radisson hotel is pretty great and I would happily stay here in the future. Room prices are not high either. Generally I find Helsinki very cheap regarding hotel prices (at least compared to my hometown of Copenhagen).
