A wonderful stay!

I love the CityBox brand and stay here whenever I am in Scandinavia. The room was excellent - without frills (minimalist in design) , and very comfortable. Location was ideal with the subway access in the building, and teams stopping almost across the street. Lots of dining options in the area as well as a lovely cafe that had breakfast. Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends. My only suggestion would be to clearly identify when cleaning is scheduled. My stay was 10 days long, and cleaning happened twice.

A very new, great hotel, ideal for what we needed, great rooms, comfy bed and pillows, plenty of space even in the 'small' rooms. Clean, tidy, friendly and helpful staff/hosts. No TV in rooms which is no issues, good WiFi, communal area comfy seats a table tennis table, and a large kitchen, with coffee machines (pay to use, €2.50) for a variety of coffee, kettles, toaster and microwaves for guests to use to make their own breakfast, fridges for people to store their fresh food/drinks - just label 🏷 it as instructed. There's a lidl not far from the Hotel to get what you need for breakfast or suggtions to eat. About 20-30minutes walking from city centre or about 5 minutes on the Metro. 100% recommended and would stay again if in Helsinki, and will use the chain again if visiting other locations with CityBox in it. Hotel does recommend places to eat, and many you get discount with your room card, between 5-20% depending on the place, juttutupa was one place which is also highly recommended.
Kitchen area. Includes coffee machines and vending units (buying required), but also kettles, toaster, and fridges for guest to use.

Good value for money

Nice new hotel with train station, buses and trams all nearby. Also walkable to the centre and port. Room was small, clean and basic. Ideal for short stays. Would recommend.

New concept in hotels

The concept is interesting - no front desk, common areas where you can cook or visit, small rooms, etc. Even though the room was tiny, it had everything we needed, and we loved the big windows looking out on the city. It was new and spotlessly clean and the bed was heavenly comfortable. It was within walking distance of the Helsinki Cathedral and harbor area. There were some great little restaurants in the neighborhood. We'd highly recommend it.

Super clean and convenient location. Close to shops and many food options. Loved the small market located attached to hotel building for meal options when you don’t want to eat out or do fast food. Public transportation just steps away. Would not hesitate to come back!

Nice hotel in good location in Helsinki

The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the location was good, right around the corner from a metro station, just 2 stops to central station. Neighborhood was safe and quiet, and its very close to a 24 hour grocery store. I would stay here again.

Modern hotel for a decent/budget price.

Modern hotel, great reception area and good use of technology. Excellent amenities. Nice bathrooms. Only negative, the flooring in the bedroom is like a course vinyl, clearly installed to last and easy to clean, but not very comfortable to walk on.

This is the second citybox hotel we have stayed at and it was just as good as the first! Would highly recommend the company. The hotel is clean, accessible and the communal areas are great. The only issue we have is that there is a coffee machine where you can purchase different coffee and as a non-coffee drinker a machine that also had tea or hot chocolate options would be a nice addition!
