Hotel F6, Helsinki
Expert reviews
“Stunningly designed, this 2016 hotel ranges around an internal courtyard (some rooms have direct access and patios); superior rooms come with French balconies. All 66 rooms are spacious (even the smallest are 27 sq metres) and stylishly furnished with cushion-strewn sofas.”
“When Hotel F6 opened, central Helsinki gained a refreshingly informal addition to its boutique hotel scene, featuring stylish décor and peaceful, comfortable rooms. Cheerful greetings on arrival include an introduction to Runar the hotel dog.”

All you need to know
As a family-owned and operated hotel comprising 66 guest rooms, Hotel F6 is particularly friendly and inviting. Boasting a central location, this hotel is only a short walk from Esplanadi Park and the central business district. While staying here, you might run into Runar, the hotel dog.
Guests can choose from three rooms at Hotel F6: Standard, Superior, or Deluxe. Standard rooms are functional, yet fun and trendy. With 25 square meters of space, this room offers air-conditioning, WiFi, and an optional French balcony. The Superior Room is slightly larger, at 27 square meters, and includes a large and stylish bathroom, along with all the other amenities of the Standard room. With 45 square meters of space, an espresso machine, and a sitting area, the Deluxe room is by far the most luxurious.
The hotel has an onsite cocktail and wine bar, Runar, named after the dog. Breakfast is included in your stay, where you can enjoy organic eggs, homemade Karelian pies, pastries, yogurt, cold cuts, coffee, and herbs grown in the hotel’s greenhouse. As a bonus, Hotel F6 is committed to environmental sustainability by recycling and saving water whenever possible.

Fabulous
Very friendly staff, good breakfast, stylish design, good recommendations for food and restaurants, close to all sightseeing points, beautiful rooms
on our way back to the airport, I have asked if I need to order a taxi in advance and was convinced, that this would be not neccessary because they will arrive two minutes after the order. But then we waited for more than 15 minutes after ordering and at the end we need to take a much more expensive company- that was not very satisfying :-(

The double room was perfect, very quite with all the amenities you could wish for. The staff was very helpful and helped us organize our stay. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast and love the cocktail bar that opens during the evening.

Pleasant place to stay while in Helsinki
We all enjoyed breakfast. There are varieties. We love location:: so convenient to reach market square and shopping streets, and meeting points for tours. Front Desk staffs paid attention to our requests and concerns. We all felt at ease while staying at Hotel F 6. This was our second time staying at this hotel. If we have opportunity to come to Helsinki again, we will definitely be with Hotel F 6.

would book again, without a thought
Great location, comfortable room, breakfast is very good, returning in the evening from a restaurant: their bar is a perfect place for a late night drink. Staff is friendly.

Great hotel, bad breakfast
The hotel itself is very nice with great location, spacious rooms and very comfortable beds. The hotel bar is worth a visit as well!
The breakfast was a huge disappointment. This is one of the better (and pricier) hotels in Helsinki, yet I've had a better breakfast in most Scandic chain hotels.

Truly a gem in Helsinki.
Room was beautifully decorated, and spacious. Breakfast was excellent, even catered for vegan and coffee was made from freshly ground beans. Location was in the heart of the city.
Room floor felt a bit cold, had to adjust the temperature. Woolen socks could have been nice.

Fantastic 4 star hotel! Amazing bed and bed linen!
Fantastic bedroom and very comfortable bed! Fantastic and very friendly staff! Big shout out to Anna in the bar, chatting with us on a very dull Monday night!
Breakfast was lacking hot items! Eggs were available but I don’t eat them. No sauna in the hotel! That was disappointing.

Excellent stay, would stay again.
Location. It was very central and close enough to all the tourist spots. The room was very clean and breakfast has an amazing spread. One morning that we had to leave before the breakfast service started, they offered to prepare something for us to take away!
Nothing. It was an excellent stay.

Stylish hotel in beautiful area
Loved this stylish hotel in a beautiful area of Helsinki. Room size was great and we loved the decor. The surrounding area was very nice and there were nice upmarket bars and restaurants all around and very close to the best sights. Fantastic bar on the ground floor of the hotel.

F6 is a wonderful hotel for it's locale and terrific staff
The staff was excellent! We were staying at a different hotel, then catching a flight to Swedish Lapland for a few days, with the plan to stay at F6 on our return. We dropped by prior to our flight to see if they would hold bags we did not want to take with us and they not only took care of the luggage, but installed them in our room before our arrival! That's excellent service. The location is wonderful for a tourist visiting the city. The room was cozy and we loved the size of the bathroom and shower! The breakfast is very comprehensive. A wonderful find for us!
No fault with this hotel at all!

F6 is a treat
Super friendly staff went out of their way to make sure our stay was comfortable, especially since it was around the Christmas period. The recommendations for where to eat and booking requirements saved us from aimlessly walking around trying to find somewhere to eat.
Nothing at all

Great staff, super helpful! Rooms are big and we enjoyed our stay very much. Highly recommended! My returned flight was cancelled all of a sudden and the staff was so helpful to help me check it and make arrangement. Highly appreciated and recommended! Will come back to stay again for sure!

Only stayed the one night but all good. Lighting may be intuitive but I’m a bit older and took me som time to suss.
Everything was of top quality. Beds, bathroom, facilities in the room. Bar was very relaxed. Breakfast was ok too.
Just not close enough for us to the main city area. Tram nearby to the centre would have been a bonus. But then I’m a bit lazy 😊. It’s not far to walk to the station.
