Had a great stay at Hobo Helsinki! Very cool bar / social area, the food and drinks from the bar were excellent (had the pizza). There are lockers if you show up early and need to leave your bag. The room was beautiful, trendy, and had everything I needed. Suuuper comfortable bed! They have events at the hotel too, so there’s always something going on. Very walkable and close to everything including the central station. Would definitely stay again!

Ottima struttura che consente self check in e self check out, per chi come me non ama il contatto con le persone e il chiacchiericcio. Ottima e abbondante colazione, sia dolce sia salata. Pulizia della camera su richiesta, così se non amate che personale esterno entri nella vostra camera durante il soggiorno, la privacy è assicurata. Locker per i bagagli gratuiti al piano interrato, insieme ai bagni e alla palestra. Nel complesso, ottima esperienza, ci tornerei sicuramente

Betal ekstra og få rum vekk fra veisidene helst inn mot gården. Mye veiarbeid om natten tidlig morgen og trikkestøy som trenger lett inn i gjennom to lags eldre vinduer. Jeg blei tilbudt nytt rom mot betaling noe jeg i ettertid angre på jeg ikke takket ja til. Fint funky hotel til ok pris i city center, frukost ok men ikke overveldende. Ps! Det kan med fordel rengjøres bedre opp i høyden på rom 453.

Excellent location in Kluuvi Helsinki. We had a staycation and visited Allas Seapool and restaurant Le Grec, both recommended also. Hotel was nicely decorated, clean and quiet. The view from room was to a wall, so basically no view at all. So we kept the curtains closed. We chose this hotel because of the location and airconditioning, but our room was still +24c. The staff brought us a fan to the room. Still quite sweaty and I woke up during night because of the heat. Breakfast was excellent and atmosphere nice.

Good points - the hotel is very central, walking distance from the main railway station, public transport, shopping area, central tourist attractions. The hotel room was spacious and very quiet - despite various functions taking place elsewhere in the building. The staff were helpful, and breakfast was good quality and plentiful. Downsides - the room was kind of style over substance. Apart from a rail and a few coat hangers there was nowhere to put clothes. Basically all you could do was leave your suitcase on the floor and open it - not a terribly comfortable way of doing things. The room was also rather warm, though to their credit the reception staff did something about this as soon as we mentioned it.

Conveniently located, quiet and friendly staff. The food was outstanding. Breakfasts were incredibly varied and set you up well for the day. However, the AC was terrible and couldn't go below 23°C, which made the nights unbearably hot and difficult to sleep. Not ideal. A shame as it would have been an amazing hotel if this was changed.

Great stay for a solo traveller. It's bang in the city centre and a 5 minute walk to most places (e.g. train station, Senate Square and Helsinki Cathedral). The tram to/from West Terminal 2 Ferry is right outside so very convenient if you're going to/from Tallinn. The room was lovely. The bed was comfy with nice bathroom facilities. Only 2 points is being earplugs if you're a light sleeper (some of the rooms point out to the main street which can get noisy at night) and there was a cold spot in my room which wasn't ideal during December. Maybe there was a fault with the thermostat? Otherwise, great stay and I will consider staying here again if I ever visit Helsinki again.

From the moment I arrived, the reception staff were exceptional — warm, professional, and genuinely eager to assist in any way they could. They went above and beyond by recommending fantastic local spots to experience authentic Finnish cuisine, which truly enhanced my stay. The breakfast was equally impressive: delicious, beautifully presented, and offering a wide variety of high-quality options to suit every taste. The hotel felt incredibly safe and secure, providing a sense of comfort throughout my stay. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Helsinki. It’s a true gem delivering world-class service right in the vibrant heart of the city. A flawless 5-star experience!

This was a pleasant stay. First time in Helsinki. Only issue that was more of a behavioral type issue was i arranged a taxi with front desk the evening before to take me to ferry dock to Estonia. Reconfirmed. The morning off went to get my taxi. No show went in reception she confirmed the previous evening host never made the request. Why lie and say you did? In the end it worked out. But left me untrusting of that one employee. Overall will stay here again when I return to Helsinki later this year.

Our family of 4 found Hobo Helsinki to be in a great location near train central station and major shopping area and tourist spots. The hotel is vibrant and has a good young vibe. We enjoyed the bountiful breakfast though we wished it would open up earlier possibly on week days from 8am to 7:30am or sooner. Room relatively clean and comfortable, though our room for 4 had a open bathroom concept for the shower so just be aware. A box of kleenex would be helpful as well. Overall, we would stay here again.
