Sokos Presidentti Hotel - Helsinki

This enormous hotel is well located and of a reasonable standard though the bedrooms come as a considerable disappointment compared to the rather grand public areas.

The rooms are medium sized and decorated with dark wooden furniture and pastel colour schemes. They are only in fair condition as are the bathrooms and would ideally benefit from refurbishment.

The restaurant serves internatonal dishes, snacks and food from an a la carte menu. It is furnished with cane furniture, many plants, and overlooks the lobby area.

The lobby is very large indeed with extensive use of marble, brass and glass decor. An abundance of green plants and comfortable seating areas offer a welcoming atmosphere.

This is a purpose built hotel. A huge unattatractive concrete building.
