✅ – Family Hotel Expert stayed and loved
The Scandic Park Helsinki is a large hotel set opposite the lovely Töölö Bay with its playgrounds and waterfront park. The hotel has an indoor swimming pool, small shop and large restaurant (packed with Finnish and international treats). It’s very easy to get in to the centre of Helsinki, just a couple of stops on the tram which goes from almost opposite the hotel. There are some great family rooms or you can book two rooms and send a note to ask them to be interconnecting which gives a great amount of space. There are standard and superior rooms, the latter of which comes with more products in the bathroom, bath robes to use and a kettle with teas and coffees. This is a really well priced family hotel in Helsinki where everyone will have the space to relax between sightseeing trips.
