Solo Sokos Hotel Pier 4

Turistik yerlere yakin sahane bir oteldi. Olanaklar, cati kati harikaydi.

沒見過這麼小的房間了，床貼窗户，沒有門僮，行李自己拉到房間

Don’t go here if you travel with pets. I was travelling with my chihuahua. This hotel gives customers with pets ground floor rooms with a view to a wall. I felt claustrophobic. You even have to pay extra to get these horrible rooms. I am really dissapointed and can not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Solo Sokos Hotel Pier 4 was opened about two months ago. The location is excellent. It is situated next to Helsinki Wheel, Allas Sea Pool, Market Square, Uspenski Cathedral and Viking Line Terminal. Most important attractions and many good restaurants are situated within walking distance. The architecture of the hotel is very interesting. Especially the wooden reception hall is very impressive and very high, almost like in New York. Besides, the hotel has a beautiful rooftop terrace with plants, hammocks, benches, a summer bar and 360-degree views. Rooms with wooden interior are very beautiful, too. Our room was Solo Supreme Twin with Seaview. You couldn't have any better sea view in Helsinki. Soundproof windows are from floor to ceiling. You see the whole city bay. Besides, rooms with sea view are very silent. There aren't any roads between the hotel and the sea. Actually they are going to build a walking district there but that construction work is underway and it can take a long time. Also rooms with windows to the narrow courtyard are silent, I suppose. We had a safety deposit box, a coffee machine and a self adjustable air-conditioning system in our room. However, storage space was too limited. There should be more and bigger cabinets in rooms. Our bathroom was also very stylish but it was hard to take a shower without watering the floor around the bathtub. There is a good gym in the hotel. Usually it is open 24/7 but sometimes there may be private events there. Dining possibilities are also good in the hotel. Both Restaurant Harbore, Rooftop Bar Humu with panorama view and Café Helli are excellent. Read separate Tripadvisor reviews about them. The breakfast buffet was one of the best I have ever seen. High quality ingredients, local products and stylish setting are very important to me. Besides, the sea view was great. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast and also the amuse bouche which was an omelet roll served to the table but unfortunately we didn't get it every morning. Both tea and coffee were served to the table, too. I also appreciate juices which they make themselves. Those juices aren't too watered and they have several interesting choices: lingonberry - star anise, sea buckthorn - orange (my favorite), carrot - ginger and blackcurrant - tarragon. I also enjoyed homemade jams and drinkable fruit soups, e.g. very delicious strawberry soup. Fruit salad and smoothies were also fresh. I loved different hot sausages, porridge, other hot dishes and pancake pieces, too. The delicious layer cake crowned the experience. Special diets (e.g. gluten free) are also available but they are hidden behind a corner. I really recommend this hotel to everyone. However, this isn't a good choice if you want to get a big room. Basic rooms are quite small (21-23 square meters). Luckily junior suites and suites are available. The biggest of them is 97 square meters.

Nice new hotel in the center of the city. I recommend booking a room with seaview even if it costs a bit more. The room was beautiful and had a magnificient view over Helsinki harbour. Breakfast was quite good, I did however miss bacon. Obviously it is a choice made by the hotel but I don't quite understand it. There's plenty of other meat products so why not bacon ?

Had a really pleasant stay at the hotel. Nicely located next to pier. Personell really kind and the breakfast is excellent with many small delightful dishes. Nice room and bed. Gym and relax ok but not top-notch. Only improvement is a little slow check-in
