Feedback about Hotel Hellsten from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Hellsten impresses many guests with its themed rooms and comfortable beds, and its location near the metro station is convenient. The breakfast receives high praise for variety, including plant-based options. The hotel maintains a certain "shabby chic" style, which, while appreciated by many, might not suit everyone's taste. Some rooms are notably spacious with modern bathrooms, while others have been described as narrow, with limited storage.

The staff greeted me warmly. Their excellent customer service. Breakfast offered great choices, and I enjoyed good coffee in the lounge area. I also liked the jazz night on Thursday, a unique and amazing experience.
The room lacked separate shampoo, conditioner, and body lotion. I found this omission inconvenient.

Wonderful City Stay

professional staffbuffet breakfastlimited space
The staff was very professional and kind. The breakfast buffet was quite nice. I found typical Nordic-style options available. I enjoyed live jazz music one day. It added charisma to the hotel and stopped at a considerate time .
My room was not quite up to expectations. It felt small, and space for belongings was very limited. I seemed like I was living in a basement because it was on the first floor and had a high window.
