Great location and cozy room, as always.
The walls on the second floor are quite thin, but no worries if neighbours are quiet and there are ear drops available in the room.

LunczHungaryHa járok arra, meglehet, hogy ezt a szállást választom ismét. Ár-érték és elhelyezkedés rendben.
A szállás kiváló kiránduló helyszín kiinduló pontján található, a szigetre menő komp kikötőjétől párszáz méterre. Reggelit lehet kérni, én nem éltem a lehetőséggel. Kávé, tea mindenki számára ingyen hozzáférhető volt. A…
PiaFinlandPaikka on sinänsä viihtyisä, hyvällä paikalla historiallisessa ainutlaatuisessa miljöössä.
8 hengen dormitoryssä oli tuplabuukkkaus. Yksi ihminen joutui viettämään yönsä yleistiloissa sohvalla. Koska hostelli oli täyteen…

Rates include the taxes and fees we can read.
The property may take a card at check-in for incidentals.
What we’d check for you here
- How many rooms they will hold at once, for how long, and on what terms.
- That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
- The pet fee and any size limit, which is where these bookings usually come apart.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about Hostel Suomenlinna
What time is check-in and check-out at Hostel Suomenlinna?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Hostel Suomenlinna allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Does Hostel Suomenlinna have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Hostel Suomenlinna?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Hostel Suomenlinna have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Hostel Suomenlinna?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
Where is Hostel Suomenlinna?
Suomenlinna C 9, Helsinki.
