The hostel is very close to the city centre and it can be reached in about half an hour. The harbour for the ferries to Suomenlinna is even closer (just about 10-15 minutes from the hostel). Moreover, the hostel is well connected by public transport, too. Two tram lines have their stops in front of it (lines 4 and 7). There is also a supermarket of the K chain not far away, and the Orthodox church (which is one of the most important sightseeing buildings in Helsinki) is very close too. Everything was very clean: the corridors and the kitchens, the room, and the toilets. The beds are comfortable and the mattress, the pillow and the duvet were washed and very clean too. The linens were perfect, too. To sum it up, the cleanliness (which is the most important thing, at least from my point of view) was on a top level. The space in the room is more than enough for two visitors for short stays. There is a shelf and a big wardrobe, and a chair for each of the guests, as well as a shared table. Each bed has its own night light, with two power outlets. There are blinds on the window if one has problems sleeping when the outside is not completely dark. When I booked the hostel, I thought that it was a little bit expensive, but after spending three days in Helsinki and seeing how high the cost of living is there, I think now that the price is very reasonable for what it provides - a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere, cleanliness, and a convenient location. I can only recommend it.

There is no kitchen on every floor, but I think this is a minor issue because the kitchens on the 4th and 5th floors weren't busy.

The hostel is placed in a very charming area on Katajanokka peninsula, surrounded by historical buildings. Easily accessible by tram, but also within 20 min walk from the city center and the railway station. Rooms are clean and pretty cozy, if a bit too cold. Convenient lighting and electric outlet placement near beds. Clean shower and bathroom areas. Sauna included in the stay was a pleasant surprise!

Kitchens are pretty small, there is not much table space for several people to sit at simultaneously. I tried several shower cabins during my stay, and in half of them water temperature does not seem to respond when you adjust it with the knob.

Eurohostel is great value for money: even a basic shared room has plenty of storage space with lockable wardrobes and a set of shelves, as well as comfortable shared lounges and kitchens with plenty of space in the fridge. Sauna is also included. The staff are friendly, there is a laundry room and luggage storage available to visitors. The location is excellent in a quiet residential neighbourhood with the city centre only a short walk away, convenient public transport links and multiple supermarkets nearby. All the facilities were clean and in good shape and the room was warm. Birdsong recordings playing in the bathrooms were a nice and quirky touch.

The kitchens could be better equipped and there was no way of regulating the temperature in my room apart from opening the window.

First impressions with the place and the staff were really friendly, even let me check in early which was a life saver. Loved how the bed were set up for pairs in room instead of multiple bunk beds, interesting set up however I did appreciate not being crowded into a room. Bathrooms and showers were kept up regularly and all communal areas had a welcoming vibe. Appreciate the extent this place goes to combat environmental impacts, it really made a positive difference in my perception on this place! Will definitely be staying here again!

Location was a little far to the “centre” however the 10-15 minute walk, isn’t really that bad if you consider all the highlights around!

The staff were fantastically helpful on everything I asked, timetables, tickets, stamps, you name it - they sorted me out. They even gave us really thoughtful commentary on how to use the hostel sauna which was appreciated by sauna novices! The room was great value for money with a nice space for table and chairs. The morning sauna session was fantastic and I am a total convert.

Not a lot to improve at all really - the only thing i could think of - and its being really picky - because no hostel really does this - is a slightly better organised kitchen set up . Eg- have each kitchen colour coded and have a basic set of coloured tools that you know belong to that kitchen - a couple of decent knifes and a measuring jug are always brilliant extras in a hostel kitchen - but so rarely there. But the fact there was a wide selection of crockery and pans was definitely appreciated.

I like the location of the hostel - the places I have come to visit are nearby. I like the small rooms. I like the kitchen that includes everything one needs.

I would be much more eager to sort my trash if all the trash bins were in the same room. Now I can put my biowaste and mixed waste in the kitchen, but still have to find out where is the mystical laundry room where I could throw my packing material waste. I am usually so tired in the evening, that I have not done it yet, although I have stayed in this hostel several times already.

It was amazing! I stayed there for a week and I couldn’t have liked my room more. It was very cozy. Everything was clean. The bed and pillow were very comfortable and since the location is quiet I was always getting a good rest. Everything in the hostel is thought of. From the area where you can just chill if you’re staying in a shared room, till the kitchenette if you prefer to cook for yourself. I really liked this place. Even the shared bathroom didn’t seem like something troubling. The staff is super helpful and the breakfast they offer is actually quite nice.

No such thing

Close to the ferry so was nice did not have to travel far (meaning little more walk to town). Staff was very nice and straight forward. Comforfable room size for two with table and chairs, and plenty of hanging space for clothes. Although bathroom was shared and outside, it was not far and could easily go to another floor if occupied. More than one kitchen so was not cramped. Appreciated the info sheet on how the hostel is reducing their footprint. Unfortunately I did not get round to using it but free sauna is always nice

Small thing, it was warm in the room so had the window open but as we were close to the street, woke few times from street noise

I took into account the rating and price ratio when choosing. The location is good. Very close to Uspenski Cathedral, you can even walk to the city center. Close to the tram and the harbor. Clean, the heating is good and the rooms are quiet. The staff is helpful. Although shared, toilets and showers are clean and tidy. Tap water is drinkable, you can fill your bottle from the tap at the bar. Bring slippers in your suitcase. If I travel again, I would choose it again without hesitation.

Perfect location of this hostel, right at Skatudden close to the trams and the Viking terminal. Supermarkets just around the corner. The hostel features everything you need- kitchen, bathrooms - and, most importantly in Finland, complimentary Sauna. Rooms were clean and the maritime atmosphere really fits the surroundings and history of the area.

The ventilation was loud and a high pitch sound - luckily turned off during the night, otherwise it would have been hard sleeping. They should check this.
