Stayed here with my wife ahead of the Ironman 70.3 World Championship in Lahti. Loved the architecture and the entire artsy feel of the hotel. Additionally, it is located right in the heart of the city and within walking distance of Helsinki Central station. Despite that, there is barely any disturbance or sound, which makes your stay calm and peaceful. Most of the key visiting sites in Helsinki are within a 15-25 minute walk from here, or you can always catch a tram or an electric scooter to get around. There are grocery stores and interesting restaurants nearby, and the hotel also arranges access to a fitness center at a nominal fee, if required. If you plan to take a ferry to Tallinn, then the West Terminal is merely 2.5 km from the hotel. The beach is around 1 mile from the hotel, and if you decide to go for a walk, jog, ride, or swim, it's a perfect place. Loved our time and stay at the hotel.

The room size that we opted for felt really small, more so because we had a bike bag. But otherwise decent space for two.

An interesting hotel in a very pleasant and central location with an unusual exterior and reception area. The room had cosy and interesting lighting features and the bathroom layout was well designed. The breakfast buffet was excellent and offered a great choice for all tastes and dietary needs including vegan. Considering the large amount of people frequenting the breakfast rooms in the morning everything was extremely well organised and staff were very attentive noting immediately if something was running low or missing.

There was nothing I actually disliked, just a few areas that we found a bit disappointing. Saying this, we were staying in the basic room category and had not opted for any of the available upgrades. The room was very compact and dominated by the bed. The storage and hanging space was just about sufficient for two or three days but not for a longer stay. There was just one bedside table that could double as a small desk. As this was a double-room it would have been difficult if two people needed to work. Considering the great lighting features of the room, the lighting in the bathroom was a bit disappointing as the overhead lighting was the only light source which makes styling and putting on make-up quite difficult.

Excellent location and staff. Lovely breakfast. This was our second stay at the hotel this summer.

Last time we stayed at the back annex of the hotel, which felt brand new/newly refurbished, and the facilities were excellent. This time we stayed in the main building - the door had a huge gap, so we could clearly see outside and hear everything. This was annoying, especially as we were staying at the hotel on a busy weekend and it got quite noisy at times in the corridors.

The front of the building and lobby are very cute and castle-like. The beds were very comfortable and the room we stayed in was beautifully designed with a large walk-in glass shower and large windows with nice views.

The breakfast was very good but not enough coffee options (no cappuccinos, mochas, etc.). Drinks at the bar were a bit small for the price. Recommend going elsewhere for a nightcap if you have time.

Room is spacious and comfortable! Comfy beds, very soft pillows :) I have to mention that the breakfast is really excellent! Features a lot of local food, e.g., Finnish squeaky cheese, cloudberry jam, Karelian pasty, freshly made pancakes, rye bread, crisp bread, soft boiled eggs with egg stand, a good selection of fruits all of which are quite fresh. I like no sugar yogurt and they do have it, in addition to a nice supply of mango quark. The staff were all very friendly and ready to help. There's also complimentary sauna every Monday evening, check it out! Also, walking distance to the Kamppi transition center, from where lots of trams/buses depart.

Really not much, everything's great :)

The main area is a beautiful jugend-style building. Our room was at the back annex, it was new and the design was very pleasant. The room facilities were excellent. Slippers were included in the room, which is always appreciated. The staff were excellent and let us check in early, which was great. Very good breakfast

It would be useful to have a squeegee broom to wipe the bathroom floor after having a shower

My stay in GLO Hotel Art should have been perfect except the breakfast. Hotel lobby is very beautiful, hotel room is comfortable and the young girl at the reception is extremely friendly and helpful. However, the breakfast is a big disappointment. Lack of choice, under-staffed so we need to clean the table ourselves and the scrambled eggs are literally un-eatable. Hotel management should check out what’s going on with the eggs.

Clean, comfortable room with air conditioning and a strong Wi-Fi signal. Centrally located in Helsinki within 10-15 minute walking distance to most tourist sites, restaurants and bars. The breakfast was very good and had a nice selection. Overall a very nice, cozy hotel with friendly staff, convenient parking and situated in a nice area.

I found this hotel really unique and charming. The reception and some of the hotel are located in a historically looking building, my room was located in the other wing. The room was quite spacious, set in a beautiful modern design, with a lot of lighting options throughout the room, and dimming light in the bathroom. Breakfast buffet was very rich, something to choose for really everyone. I was very happy with my stay in this hotel, would have gladly stayed a few more days. Reception was staffed with very nice people, check-in and check-out were fast and efficient. Getting to the hotel from the central station was very easy with the tram, only about 3 stops. Without a suitcase it was very easy to walk through the entire inner city from here.

Fabulous interior (and exterior) design and quite central and helpful staff

The standard rooms are much too small. It was hard to get around the bed. Also the wardrobe was 2” (10cm) deep - only room for 2 items comfortably. Very little storage space, but lots of room for a bottle of wine and glasses and fluffy toy!
