Excellent hotel in excellent location. Very good breakfast with a great variety of choice. Next to the central station and walkable to most tourist attractions. Sure will stay again.

We had a great few nights stay at Scandic Grand Central. The check-in process was smooth- The hotel even provided an online check-in option that would also notify us when our room is ready so that we can check in earlier. The room was a little smaller than we imagined but nevertheless well-equipped. The breakfast buffet is a MUST- There's a wide variety of food and they are all scrumptious. The staff was warm and accommodating- Big thumbs up to the cleaning staff who greeted us everyday without fail with the biggest smile on their faces. The location is also fantastic-Its very central so all the tourist attractions and transport is within walking distance.

Scandic grand central Helsinki compounds and rooms are v nicely renovated and clean upon check in. Location and breakfast is great too! However, the make up room service can be improved. No towel change or vacuuming of floor done for the entire 3 days stay.

Everything was great including the breakfast. Only letdown was the soft pillows and mattresses that made a good rest challenging.

This was our third visit to this hotel during an extended trip around Finland. We are very glad we chose this hotel - the staff are friendly and polite, the breakfast is tasty, the rooms are large and quiet, and the location is right next to the railway station. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Helsinki or simply passing through.

Wonderfully made up hotel with included sauna, gorgeous rooms and a diverse breakfast spread. The location couldn't be anymore convenient. One shock I must comment on is no kettle or tea in the room!!
