“A hip lifestyle hotel located in Helsinki’s up-and-coming Konepaja district. Set amongst former industrial buildings, this 146-room property boasts stylish contemporary rooms, friendly service, an excellent restaurant and a noteworthy cocktail bar on the rooftop. Made for the young and trendy.”

Hotel review

Located in Vallila’s Konepaja district, in the heart of the cultural centre and along excellent transportation links, this urban lifestyle hotel has a distinctive look and feel to it. Formerly built as offices, the converted red brick building respects its history on the exterior, yet the inside is modern and minimalistic. The interior blends an industrial feel with a hint of playfulness through features such as exposed brick, creative lighting and quirky antiques.

Suitable for long or short stays, the bedrooms vary in size. Each one comes with an en-suite bathroom, mini Smeg fridges and Nespresso machines. While some rooms come with mini kitchens, there is a fully-equipped ’Common Kitchen’ available for guests wanting to self-cater. The hotel’s Albina Restaurant and Lobby Bar serves food from morning through to lunch and dinner, while the rooftop terrace offers spectacular views of the city.

The Folks Hotel brings the focus of well-being to Konepaja with a healthy and generous breakfast buffet, a state-of-the-art gym, a wellness spa and a lifestyle boutique shop. This hotel’s unique location, coupled with nearby cultural services and businesses, makes it a great base for couples, business travellers and families.
