Solo Sokos Hotel Torni

Solo Sokos Hotel Torni was the city’s first true skyscraper and, as such, provides some of the city’s best views. It’s only 14 floors high, but that’s more than enough to accommodate plenty of guests. The 1930s architecture is a real treat.

 

 

Hotel Katajanokka

Hotel Katajanokka boasts an incredibly chic design in the midst of what used to be a prison. That’s definitely something you don’t see every day. It boasts an on-site restaurant, terrace and meeting rooms for those in town on business.
