Hotel St. George

Superior service, excellent staff, very relaxing spa and super good restaurant and Bar. Cocktails are worth tasting. Breakfast is very good, wide selection and fresh tastes. Maybe not the best hotel for families, we had our 1-year-old with us.

A beautiful hotel in the heart of Helsinki. Very friendly staff upon our arrival and throughout our stay, very well furnished and clean room, and excellent all-round. If you are looking for a nice, relaxed couple's weekend break in Helsinki, the Hotel St. George is the place to go.

Excellent location, atmosphere, so beutiful room and delicious breakfast. We were so pleased with everything.

We loved our stay at the St. George. Prior to coming, I emailed with questions. They were answered immediately by an amazing hotel staff member. She was the same person who checked us in and she remembered us! Our room was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was absolutely amazing. We are still talking about the sourdough bread. The hotel itself is in a great location. We would absolutely stay here again.

I stayed at the Hotel St George for a five day vacation in Helsinki, and couldn't be more pleased with my choice! I stayed in a Serenity Studio room type, and while it was definitely on the smaller side, it was well designed and comfortable, and the perfect place to land after a long day out exploring the city. First, the location of this hotel is excellent. It is on a beautiful, quiet park, a couple blocks from the Esplanadi, and walking distance to almost everything in central Helsinki. Nothing seemed to be more than a 15 - 20 minute walk away (tops), and many things were a 5 minute walk. There is also a great cafe on the ground floor which is perfect for breakfast or lunch, and seems to have lots of locals dining there as well. The room we stayed in, the Serenity Studio, was good as an entry room-type. This room type comes with spa access (sauna, pool, steam room). The room was comfortable, though small, with thoughtful design touches and functionality features - there was a decent sized built in wardrobe, slim night stands with charging next to the bed, a modern and new bathroom, and a relaxing decor style. The spa at the hotel was ok, but I wasn't too impressed with it. We went daily for a sauna and a steam room sit. You have to make a reservation via the front desk to prevent overcrowding, and even then, it felt like there were sometimes a lot of people there. The locker room wasn't always super tidy, and generally it didn't feel as special as it could have. But maybe I was expecting something a bit more magical in Finland, the world capital of sauna! The staff was friendly and helpful, and housekeeping was very kind and attentive! No one hesitated when we asked for help, and were always professional and polite. Overall, I think this is a great choice for a stay in Helsinki; and still felt a bit undiscovered, with a boutique feel - like a very chic address to stay at for your visit. I'd much rather stay here than at a chain hotel; and it feels like it's in a more perfectly peaceful area with more modern sophistication than Hotel Kamp which we were also debating staying at.
