The Senate Hotel is like an upscale Bed-and-Breakfast. Very nice and accommodatingstaff. You share a bathroom and shower, there’s a community kitchen with everything you need to cook. Very quiet. Excellent neighborhood with a lot of great restaurants around.

It's a weird but great little hotel, provided you read what it is and have reasonable expectations. It's shared bath, and the rooms are sparse but clean and comfortable. For the price you pay, it's more than fair. Don't book it for your romantic get away, but if you want a good price on a great location and the room is just a place to sleep. It's perfect.

Receptionen skulle öppnat 15.00 men det fanns ingen här. Efter ett tag blev vi insläppt av en annan boende och kunde hitta vårat rum

Very nice room in a fantastic location, easy to get in after check in time with text message process, I was very pleased with the room and facilities, highly recommended

Clean room.Good food service.

Great location to walk to many sights of the city but the hotel is a little hard to find

This is a good place for a budget stay in the middle of the city. The hotel is very basic. The rooms are very basic. One has to realize that this hotel is consists of maybe 8-10 rooms on the 5th floor of a building. Rooms do not have toilets/showers. So, when booking one has to be aware of this. It is a single floor of a building! It has two very small toilets for men/women. It has a shower that would be a shower of a typical home. It has a small kitchen, with a normal size fridge, a sink, a small dinner table, a stove, ... The location is very central. The lady at the reception was terrific. She was warm, welcoming, smily, helpful. Thanks Galina for your hospitality.

Private, quiet, clean, helpful, location

Really good. Great location, great room, great staff, great value. I loved the feel of the hotel, too. The stay was just what I needed - so much so that I tried to book a room for a second night later in the week ... but had no joy!

Very helpful owners

Receptionist was very friendly. Great location, a few minutes walk from the main station, harbor market, cathedral. I highly recommended.

Older property on the fifth floor of the building. Some quirkiness due to age, but great central location and a tram stop literally right outside the door of the building. I had an emergency when my original lodging was cancelled hours before check-in, and Senate Hotel was able to accommodate me at very short notice.

Thanks so much for five nights at the Senate, you were so good to me. S. Thompson

Love an old building. I was greatly entertained by my ignorance with the shower. Be back on Wed. May 1 then off on a train to Vaasa. Thanks

A cosy, simple place to stay in an excellent location - I was just in Helsinki for a few hours and the hotel was an ideal option for my stay.

Fairly basic room, but it all that I needed.

Economy, but friendly staff that speaks English.

Good location, friendly staff but only one shower room, 1 lady toilet and 1 man toilet for the whole hotel. So poor

Really lovely staff, excellent location. Very typical housing and unlike many hotels.

It was very central to Helsinki City centre a 8 min stroll to centre shops & restaurant /cafes. Plus a fair price, not overly expensive, Only thing was the shared bathroom & shower facilities are shared for all rooms I think. But that's a small price to pay for a clean tidy room at half the price of similar hotels in Helsinki, plus there's a cool Kereoke bar on street level open till 4am popular with local Helsinki party goers.
