GLO Hotel Kluuvi

GLO Hotel Helsinki Kluuvi location is somewhat excellent. Service at the front desk is quick and very welcoming. Also if you need to extend the room checkout time, it seems to be happen just like that. At least I was very pleased. Breakfast is sufficient and I was happy about it. My room (Luxe Double) was really commodious and I was very pleased with the bathtub. Bed was really nice, although too "soft" for me. There was enough pillows too. Only minor complains come from the small lavatory and noise, which can be heard from the corridor pretty easily. Otherwise this was really happy surprise for me and as said, I was happy!

Hotel staff were super nice and welcoming. First disappointment was the necessity to book a 30 minutes time slot for breakfast the day before .. it is a bit ridiculous. The room was tiny but fairly clean. The shower had a gap under the door which ended up leaking out of the shower. The bed was ….. a soft mattress with a top mattress where they folded a bed sheet on and 2 “pillows” way too flat. The top mattress didn’t even fit the size of the real mattress. We were happy we only had to spend one night here.

We stayed in this hotel three nights in Helsinki. The desk staff was very cordial and the people were helpful. The rooms were comfortable (despite having those thin mattresses which I dislike) and the bathroom was spacious. The shower was wonderful. The hotel offers a complete continental breakfast with a few hot dishes. The lobby area is cramped. The hotel is very secure. Not only are there keys to the rooms but also keys to get on the floors. Perhaps the best thing about the hotel is the location. It is in the heart of city events and across the street from Frazer's Chocolate. Who could ask for more?

Location perfect. Services are excellent. But the room we got was almost like a small bomb shelter and can make you feel claustrophobic. Not enough room to hang clothes. Not enough space to move around. You might hit a wall or sharp corner if you're not careful.

Our tour director had already secured our card keys while we were walking around downtown. Nice size room, but twin beds. Large TV and nice desk with lamp and several outlets. In-room safe all the way in bottom of cabinet and not convenient to use unless on hands and knees. AC did not work and management did not want to open windows. They provided us with a noisy fan as an option. No luggage rack in room so we used the ironing board and a chair. They had plenty of room for luggage racks. Nice bathroom with walk-in shower, a luxury on this trip. Had computer plugged in at the desk and found out the next morning that it did not charge. My wife also had a problem trying to apply makeup, in the bathroom, without sufficient light.
