Staff were polite but any request - from bathrobe to checking out - seemed to come as a bit of a surprise to them. No warmth from any staff. Decor was run-down, shabby, slightly dirty 90s of very questionable taste. Room was OK but nowhere near spotless: the dreaded curly black hair on the duvet, bit of hair left in... More

My husband & I stayed here for 2 nights on our first Scandinavian trip from 27-29 April. The room has kettle and tea facility in the room. Bed was too soft, not suitable for me or people with back problem. No swimming pool but they do have the gym facilities. The staffs failed to impress me with their hospitality. They... More

I stayed for four nights for some academic work and the hotel amenities made the work easier. The hotel also has a spa and exercise room. The breakfast buffet which was included in the price was excellent. The onsite restaurant had buffet and a la carte options, as well as a bar. The staff were very helpful. The conference rooms...

Location wise this is ideal for my trips. 1,5 km from heart of Helsinki makes it easy to walk. Hotel is quite a standard one, little bit old and worn out in some areas / rooms. Bed is very comfortable and buffee breakfast is great - what else you could expect from business trip ? Bar Viola has also nice... More

Nice and ambient room, good value for your money. Hotel has a good bar and restaurant, and the city center is only 500 mts away, lots of public transport options as well in front of the hotel. Best part is the rooms that look towards the sea, pick those when you check in :)

Good location in regards to Otaniemi and Ruoholahti areas. Short taxi drive away (10 mins) from Otaniemi, Ruoholahti within walking distance. Hotel itself is clean and normal Radisson standard. Good but nothing special.

Harbor area is a long walk or short train ride from the center of town, but it's fun to see the ferries come in and watch all the locals dragging their 6-case limit of beer that they can get for less in Tallin than in Finland. Breakfasts here are amazing, catering to all types of international travelers. So you have... More

The location of the Seaside is across from the Western Ferry Terminal and in the Ruoholahti district of Helsinki. As another reviewer stated, very convenient for the ferry to Tallin; and actually only a 10 minute tram ride from the Helsinki Main Rail station aboard tram no. 6 which drops you off literally in front of the hotel.

Checked in, staff helpful. Room clean and usaable but not the standard I am use to from a radisson. Reminds me of a new travelodge with slightly better decor. As I am here one night and just neet internet and bed its fine.
