Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Hobo Helsinki from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hobo Helsinki enjoys a super central location, steps away from the Main Station, market, and many shops and restaurants, as well as a short walk to the water. Guests consistently praise the excellent breakfast with its huge selection and fresh produce, though some have noted that it stays relatively consistent day to day. The rooms are often described as funky and well-designed, some even spacious, with features like individual climate control, while thick walls ensure a quiet stay. Many also appreciate the unique hotel features such as the coworking space and games at the bar.

A Decent Stay

food variety great location uncomfortable seating missing wardrobe

The breakfast was good. There was a great variety of food to choose from each morning. The location was perfect to see the city. I found the hotel to be edgy and unique.

There was no comfortable seating in my room. I also found no wardrobes or drawers in the room. I had to live out of the suitcase. There was no tea or coffee provision either.

Acceptable experience

good breakfast spacious room practical socket grey decoration high window dark decor

The breakfast was quite good with several choices available. The room was spacious enough, and the layout was well-planned. Sockets were conveniently located near the bed, which i found practical.

The room decoration was overwhelmingly grey. I found the bedroom window was too high to see out of or open easily. Hallways also had a dark gray decor.

Acceptable Stay, but Room Size Was Disappointing

small room missing wardrobe

The location was GOOD for getting around downtown.

The room felt TOO small. I struggled to open my suitcase fully, and moving around was difficult. It lacked essential storage like a proper wardrobe.

food choices gluten free section good breakfast noise on street tea facilities coffee facilities

I thought the breakfast had a great selection of foods. They had options for all tastes and also a gluten free section. I felt safe in my room since its located downtown and I could easily walk to the waterfront.

I found no tea or coffee making facilities in the room. Payment was required for self made tea or coffee in the lobby. I was kept awake by the noise on the street, which continued late.
