It is luxury grand hotel with history! They also newly renovated the property! Neoclassical style! All staffs are very nice and friendly! The room is quiet spacious!
This was one of the best hotels we’ve stayed at, with excellent staff. The bathroom was luxurious. It felt extremely safe. We did not like the electrical toilets. They kept slamming shut while we were seated. But otherwise, it was phenomenal. They upgraded us into a suite because they didn’t have our room ready in time, and the suite was amazing.
Incredible stay with incredible staff. The Waldorf Astoria Helsinki knows how to make you feel welcomed and valued as a customer. Cannot recommend this establishment enough!! So much so that I am considering applying for Amex credit card for Waldorf Astoria points!! Job well done!
Very nice hotel looks very fancy , it is fairly new hotel, the furniture looks like from RH I loved my stay the staff were amazing very friendly and the area around the hotel is really nice very close to a lot of landmarks
The property was lovely and the staff was friendly and helpful. Our room was comfortable with a large, beautiful bathroom. The breakfast and spa were also great.
Beautiful decor and ambiance! Excellent service! Linens that feel like pure luxury and elegance. Only reason I gave them a good for upkeep of location is the carpet - it needs to go and it needs a more upscale flooring. Other then that it is simple a delight to stay here! I am coming back later on this week! I cannot wait!
The hotel is just beautiful. Every single detail was thought about from the fireplace, decor and the iPads in each room that control everything. We stayed in a one bedroom suite with a gorgeous bathroom and could not have been happier. It is a 10-15 minute walk from the center and we loved the location.
Beautiful hotel, excellent service, fantastic spa. The staff could not have been nicer. The rooms were luxurious - my new favorite hotel in Helsinki. Thank you!
The Hotel Maria was amazing. The room was more than we could have asked for. The in-room sauna was well worth it. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and able to answer all of our questions and help with nay requests we had. If you are travelling to Helsinki, look no further...this is the ideal place to stay.
This was one of the most memorable hotel stays we have ever had. The junior spa suite with our personal sauna was height of relaxation. The staff and breakfast were simply incredible. Highly recommended.
What can i say about this amazing and wonderful hotel? We found out when we arrived that we were the VERY first booking for this newly open hotel! They treated us like royalty! Highly recommended to all !
Kiitos,

Lovey refurbishment and wonderful staff. So helpful and friendly. Super comfortable bed. Just thought that having the bathroom heating on was unnecessary. Highly recommended
A world-class hotel with stunning unique rooms, excellent service and a wonderful spa area. Will definitely stay here again next time I go to work in Helsinki.
What did come to mind was that the room key didn’t work for certain locked corridors and the stairwell that led to the hotel room, which meant that you had to take detours to the hotel room, sometimes outside, which was a bit frustrating as I had quite a few bags.
