GLO Hotel Art
What Guests Say
I really enjoyed the stay. The staff was very friendly. The breakfast selection is good and things get filled up fairly quickly. Also, it's rare that you have a steamer in the room which I liked a lot. The price per what you get is very decent, the room size is fine too for how central you are and what you pay for it!

The room was spacious and thoughtfully designed. There was room for belongings when staying more than 1 day, The reading lamps actually worked for reading and there was a comfortable armchair in the room.

Extremely comfortable stay at the Glo Hotel Art. Is a little outside the city centre - 15 min to central station even with baggage but there isn't public transport on the doorstep. Personally I found being a little outside an advantage because the bars and restaurants in the neighbourhood were less touristy but do be aware of that when booking. Good staff allowing early check in. Room was very clean and I slept like a log! Good breakfast.

+ Unique buliding for Helsinki. It reminded me a Moorish castle in the lobby, with more gothic elements on the second and third floors of the main building. + Breakfast which was included in the room price was amazing. Varied and with plenty of choice + Our child (of 8 years old) apparently stayed for free, as price for 2 or 3 people was the same + Location, location, location. With such a centric location you don't need a car. Everything can be explored by foot or reached by public transport, if going further from centre + We had a problem with aircon in our room (it was too hot) in the middle of the night and we were given another room. The problem was resolved very swiftly and politely + Our child enjoyed putting a 3rd puzzle in the hotel lobby - we thought it was a very thoughtful gesture from hotel management to arrange puzzle activities in that way and also offer some unique puzzles + And my favourites - GLO Hotel slippers! I absolutely love their design and they are very comfortable in comparison to traditional hotel slippers. I always take them home with me :)

Excellent and quirky hotel in a great location in the Design District of Helsinki. Based around a 0930s castle, the original building has been preserved with the modern rooms in a newer part of the hotel. Staff were great and the hotel strives for sustainability. Room was small but perfect for a few nights including the electric bed which can prop you up or raise your feet! Handy for the very centre of the city and a 5-7 minute tram ride from central station.

Stayed here with my wife ahead of the Ironman 70.3 World Championship in Lahti. Loved the architecture and the entire artsy feel of the hotel. Additionally, it is located right in the heart of the city and within walking distance of Helsinki Central station. Despite that, there is barely any disturbance or sound, which makes your stay calm and peaceful. Most of the key visiting sites in Helsinki are within a 15-25 minute walk from here, or you can always catch a tram or an electric scooter to get around. There are grocery stores and interesting restaurants nearby, and the hotel also arranges access to a fitness center at a nominal fee, if required. If you plan to take a ferry to Tallinn, then the West Terminal is merely 2.5 km from the hotel. The beach is around 1 mile from the hotel, and if you decide to go for a walk, jog, ride, or swim, it's a perfect place. Loved our time and stay at the hotel.

An interesting hotel in a very pleasant and central location with an unusual exterior and reception area. The room had cosy and interesting lighting features and the bathroom layout was well designed. The breakfast buffet was excellent and offered a great choice for all tastes and dietary needs including vegan. Considering the large amount of people frequenting the breakfast rooms in the morning everything was extremely well organised and staff were very attentive noting immediately if something was running low or missing.

An amazing hotel. The architecture and design was incredible - if it hadn’t been for the opportunity to do the child’s treasure hunt we would have missed so much! The staff were wonderful, friendly and accommodating. They are brilliantly geared for children - on arrival as well as the awesome treasure hunt my little guy was given a little pack of items to keep him occupied. Breakfast was fantastic with a huge range and everything was delicious! Easy walking distance from the train station (although it did feel longer when dragging suitcases).
