Beautiful studio in the middle of Helsinki

EmmaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Eija's place was a great stay for a first-time trip to Helsinki - centrally located, a very easy walk from the train station (just mind your bags up those stairs!). Her instructions were so detailed, I felt so well taken care of! And I so appreciated her immediate responsiveness. A perfect solo stay in the city. Thanks Eija!

* Courtyard fresh cozy apt. terraces outdoor*

BexRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Lovely apartment in a convenient location. So peaceful and comfortable inside. Mervi has created a beautiful space. It’s an easy tram ride or 15-20 minute walk into the main city, and only one block from the sea. Loads of restaurants and cafes around. Rams coffee just around the corner is great. If you want a fancy meal we highly recommend Nokka.

Two rooms and sauna in a modern apartment

YipRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Definitely the best airbnb experience I have had since I started using the platform. Passionate and welcoming, Virgil is the best host you can imagine. He always replies instantly and tries his best to accommodate different needs. He communicated in advance if he would come to work and it worked out seamlessly. The house is tidy and clean, the highlight is the sauna. The surrounding is quiet and peaceful and I had great sleep during my stay. Roughly around 15 mins train to city centre or to airport. The house is conveniently located in Hel. With frequent train to city and centre, the house is in a perfect location for those who want city and quiet stay at the same time. Thanks to Virgil and his hospitality, I had a very good time in Hel. Will come back for sure ✔️ Thanks Virgil for such warm welcome and perfect place. He is super host for a reason:)

A Charming, Spacious City Studio

ElizabethRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
A really lovely and homey spot. Fully equipped, including lots of items often not in a unit (washer,dryer, sauna, private patio). Location is great - close to the water and parks; easy transit ride to the metro and downtown; we really enjoyed our stay.

1 bedroom - central Helsinki

EmileeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Firstly, I am so glad I stayed here! The proximity to everything I needed (specifically the University of Helsinki) was extremely walkable and perfectly located. There are great shops, restaurants, and cafes right outside, and the area is close to transit (tram cars), which is within a two-minute walk. The place was spotless and extremely comfortable. As a young woman travelling alone, I felt extremely safe here with all the security measures to enter the building. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend this place to anyone visiting Helsinki. I noticed there is another review on here scrutinizing the cleanliness of the place - it was immaculately clean! 10/10 experience!

Nice apartment, fairly close to all of the major attractions. Only difficult thing for us with 2 little children is that there is no elevator.

Beautiful 70m2 Penthouse: balcony+ sauna+ views

ShamilRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The apartment is beautiful, and inside was spotless and clean, idyllic! The location is not too far yet not too close to the city centre but with amenities nearby, so transport was easy. Miika was easy to get a hold of and left a few things for us to use. It definitely is an apartment I’d stay at again.

Fantastic location close to multiple restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and public transportation! We spent 5 days here and never felt uncomfortable. Communication was professional and quick, and check-in was easy despite some cell signal issues on my end. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

Unique Design Studio in trendy part of Helsinki

ChelseaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Lula’s apartment is elegantly designed and thoughtfully appointed. Despite its convenient location on the tram line, it is super quiet. And bright! The expansive view over the broad street and blooming trees was a favorite joy of mine in the mornings. Some of our favorite meals were just around the corner, but the tram also made it incredibly easy to reach further-flung destinations. We loved our stay in Helsinki in large part because of how delightful this apartment was to come back to, and we chose to have dinner at home on several occasions just so we could enjoy it more. Thank you so much, Ulla!

Historic Home in Helsinki City Center

NathanielRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This was a great stay in the heart of Helsinki's Design District. The place was exactly as described and had all the amenities needed for shorter or longer stays. There are a few flights of stairs to reach the unit but they are not steep. The location is perfect for walking to explore the neighborhoods, with several connections to trams and buses. The central train station (and most of the main attractions) are about a 15-minute walk. Although on an active pedestrian street, the apartment is incredibly quiet inside since it is set back from the street and has excellent walls and windows. The hosts were flexible about the check-in process when my flight was rescheduled and delayed. Overall, I would strongly recommend this place to anyone with good mobility looking to take advantage of the area.
