Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel, Helsinki

The hotel itself features rooms with an ultra-modern and typically Finnish design, the bold colours contrasting with the hotel's historic architecture that dates back to 1917. The 291 bedrooms all have ultra-comfortable Magic Dreams® beds that have been specifically designed for Finland's Radisson Blu hotels, ensuring guests always enjoy a great night's sleep.

The hotel's Kitzens Restaurant, one of the newest hotels in Helsinki, offers varied and delicious cuisine from around the world, meaning there's something to suit all tastes, including a hot and spicy street kitchen, a backyard barbecue and a wonderfully brash bistro.

Other facilities at Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel include a fitness room and sauna. There's also the option to hire bicycles - a great way to explore Helsinki in the warmer summer months.

We like: The contrast between modern and traditional and a great city-centre location make this a great choice for a stay in Helsinki

Best for: Couples, families, solo travellers - anyone!
