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.”

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.

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.

Excellent location with friendly helpful staff
Great location and very helpful staff. Room was a decent size, bed was large and very comfortable. Lovely breakfast options, not a lot of hot food but a good selection of other options. Nice tea.
Nothing really. Maybe a second luggage rack but we used the window ledge.

Looking for an excuse to go back!
Yummy and expansive breakfast in a warm and cozy setting. Loved that you could chill and have a drink in the bar in the evening. And every interaction with staff was warm and welcoming.

Staff amazing and very helpful especially Receptionest I believe his name was Dan although I could be mistaken. He was on the day of checkout and loaded my bags before I came down which was wonderful.
Possibility of eggs at breakfast thou I did enjoy the healthy option. Didn't affect my positive experience in anyway

The design of the property. The luxury. The small touches and all of the staff
I had to save my laundry to do in london because hotel laundry was too expensive. In london I just used an app and someone came to collect my laundry from hotel reception amd will drop it back tomorrow. Very quick and reasonably priced. Would have otherwise been cheaper for me to throw the clothes out in Helsinki with the price they wanted to charge for laundry

Overall a good stay and being close to many places.
Breakfast was ok, could have been better with more food options? Was looking for scrambled egg but only hard boiled eggs. Location was perfect as it is close to the shopping district. There are also many good restaurants around the vicinity.
Housekeeping didnt provide clean towels after they were done. I had brought out two towels to the sauna and after coming back, i was not given clean towels at all, even my used towels were not changed.

Fantastic well located hotel
Everything. From our arrival at the hotel our entire experience was exceptional. The staff were friendly and helpful; the rooms were spacious and well equipped; and the bar area where you had breakfast and evening drinks was vibrant. The bar area is also open to the public who stop by for after work drinks which adds a great atmosphere.
Nothing.

A luxurious weekend treat.
Staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. Nothing was too difficult for them. Breakfast was a feast of deliciousness with something for everyone. We really loved our stay.
Maybe the addition of a swimming pool and sauna would be good!

The hotel is great value for money in downtown Helsinki.
The staff was very friendly. I was upgraded for the first night. They also agreed to hold my bag for the one night I had to go to Turku for a meeting.

I liked the breakfast but I don’t think it was worth the extra 20euros, which iI bought for my nieces.
I would have liked more hot options.

Beautiful Boutique Hotel that ticks all the boxes.
F6 is in a great location, walking distance to almost everything. We were upgraded to a beautiful room that was spacious and sumptuously decorated. The underfloor heating in the bathroom was great! All the staff were very helpful and friendly, particularly the young man who brought us a coffee and tea while we were waiting for the time to head to the airport. Make sure you have a cocktail in the cosy bar, they are exceptional. Breakfast is also wonderful with lots of choice. I would highly recommend this boutique hotel, couldn’t fault it.

Superb location Nice decor Everything in room worked well Nightlight lighting in bathroom was helpful Staff was great Breakfast was awesome
Regular-sized room was small if one has 2 large suitcases that need to be opened. We had to ask staff to take away small table to allow room.

KIITOS! People all over the world should go here
The staff was very kind! And the breakfast tableware is marimekko, and they have very delicious salmon, cheese, and muesli bars. And the interior is beautiful. I will definitely come back here! I can't wait for that day. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the staff who brought me a pack of tea as I was unable to have breakfast on the last day due to my departure flight. :)

Great multi night stay at Hotel F6
Recently spent 6 nights at Hotel F6. We found every staff member we encountered to be very pleasant and helpful. The location is exceptional. The harbor and many of the main tram lines are within a 5 minute walk. Will definitely stay here again if we return to Helsinki.

The 3 “L’s”. Lovely, luxurious, locations.
Lovely luxury. Very well appointed with the nicest staff! We had to leave for the airport at 5 am and they had lattes and a packed breakfast waiting for us. The room was also beautiful and comfortable. The location was perfect as well.
Loved everything

A luxurious, mostly well-designed hotel, and value for the money.
Good looking, contemporary design. Quiet location and rooms. Good location for sightseeing. Staff is friendly and helpful. Delicious, healthy breakfast is included.
King bed had two single duvets for covers, which was neither practical nor comfortable.

Amazing hotel in the centre of Helsinki, few steps of famous Esplanade park and other landmarks!
Absolutely gorgeous hotel with very very kind and willing staff in the centre of city. Room was hillarious (I had ground floor room in courtyard, so I had to have blinds on window when needed privacy, but cleanliness and room facilities were the top).

Wonderful hotel in a great location with excellent staff and breakfast!
Amazing buffet breakfast- wonderful food and coffee and lovely outdoor space to sit and relax. The rooms were big and clean and well-equipped with everything we needed. The location was perfect and we were able to walk everywhere. the staff was very helpful and kind. Very good value for the money!
The only thing that could be improved was that the bathroom light was on a timer and the light kept going off while I was in the shower. But it was a very small thing and I 100% recommend this hotel!

Not enough elevators for the number of rooms. I am happy to take the stairs unless I have luggage, but when you do have luggage it can be a long wait.
