The Building

This super classy 1902 Jugendstil property on Helsinki’s Central Railway Square was freshly renovated in 2021. All apartments are located on the fifth floor – the building’s top floor – and are accessible by elevator. This is a contactless property, which means there’s no front desk. You can access both the building and your apartment with a convenient door code, and our super-responsive online support team is here for you day and night.  

The Neighbourhood

If you want to be in the heart of the city and within walking distance to a huge number of Helsinki’s attractions and other neighbourhoods, then this location is perfect for you. Our City Centre building is located in the heart of Helsinki’s central business district and lively downtown. 

The building is situated on the corner of the Helsinki Central Railway Square, a hub of train, bus, metro, and tram routes from which you can conveniently get anywhere in the city (or Finland, for that matter). From here, you can get to other neighbourhoods like Punavuori design district and Kallio on foot as well. This is where old and new brush shoulders, where highbrow refinement and simple pleasures converge.
