This is our second stay at the Grand Marina. We find the location to be second to none. It is just far enough from the busy central area to be relatively quiet but still within easy walking distance of many attractions and restaurants. There is a tram stop just couple of blocks away that will take you anywhere in the... more

The Scandic Grand Marina was great! It was a perfect location to explore Helsinki - a 5 min. walk to Market Square. The staff was pleasant and helpful. Our room was on the second floor above the front door - but surprisingly quiet! It had nice wooden floors and comfortable beds. Two problems - you could only open the window... more

My friend booked this via Expedia. The room booking was for three people again (see Stockholm review) the hotel seemed to be unaware of the booking for three persons. Even so, the staff were helpful and rectified the situation quickly. We were given a room immediately even though we checked in at 10.30am in the morning, which we were very... more

I usually prefer smaller hotels, however this one I quite liked. Of course an adapted harbour warehouse building must have its limitations. What I liked: helpful staff with just right attitude (attentive but not overly so). Free wireless and good free breakfast included with the room. Convenient location near the ferry terminal and near the town centre (Helsinki is very... more

You can have a double room for only 64 Euro pr. night at any Scandic Hotel in Scandinavia from June 19, 2008 and all summer long, if you book directly at www.scandichotels.dk. So forget about all the .com-sites that will charge you up to twice as much! more

Everything there is to say about the Scandic Grand Marina has already been said on Tripadvisor. But I will repeat to confirm what I saw Check in - very brisk, it must have taken no more than 5 minutes. Service - not that we crossed paths too often with hotel personnel, but in the events we did, they were polite... more

I stayed in this hotel for one night on business. It's a recently renovated hotel and the style and feel of the room is very minimalist. The twin room I had was comfortable enough but lacking in any real luxury - more functional than anything else. The hotel is well equipped for business travellers with free WLAN and PC's equipped... more

I spent one night in this hotel and I would like to spend longer. The building is impressive with lots of the original architecture preserved inside and out. The rooms are spotless and very nicely designed. The room rate was bit steep (150 Eu per night) but this is Finland and the hotel is well situated to explore Helsinki. I... more

A fantastic place, stunning way to experience Helsinki architecture and the city centre. The building has great presence and my room was superb, on the top floor with a split level where the bed was upstairs and a spacious lounge/dining/work area below. The receptionists where very helpful. The food was great - both room service and breakfasts. I really enjoyed... more
