The main course was awful, while the sauna amenities provided a luxurious experience.

The hotel staff provided exceptional personalized service.

The amenities came with unexpected extra costs. Using the spa was limited to just 1 hour and 30 minutes, which felt quite restricting. Additionally, I was disappointed by the small portion sizes of the food for the high prices. It was frustrating to spend so much and not feel satisfied with the dining experience.

best base for exploring helsinki's highlights within walking distance

During my stay, i loved that the hotel was a short walk from the beautiful helsinki cathedral and just a few steps to the bustling market square, making city strolls super easy and enjoyable. it really enhanced my weekend getaway experience.

Highly recommend it for couples!

I must say the experience was PHENOMENAL! ! The room was not just spacious but had a sauna right in the shower, which was such a unique touch, you know? Plus, they treated us like we were royalty when we walked into the Garden Terrace restaurant. I mean, it's rare to find such genuine hospitality, Bryan and team really made it special.

It was pricey, but worth every penny.

The Hotel Maria, Preferred Hotels & Resorts features stunning decor, with beautiful white sculptures and calming aesthetics throughout its modern spaces. The staff were exceptionally attentive, ensuring every need was met promptly, making it easy for us to navigate the property.

More assistance with luggage would be helpful.

my stay at the hotel maria exceeded all expectations during a quiet weekend in helsinki. the room was luxurious with a sauna in the shower, and the staff made my partner's birthday feel extra special with personalized treats. the attention to detail and the exceptional service left us feeling like royalty.

spa access was limited to 90 minutes.

Luxurious room with high-tech controls. Service at the Garden Terrace restaurant was outstanding. Spa access had extra charges and time limits.

The room was massive with an awesome iPad system to play music and control the lights. They left us chocolates to celebrate my partner's birthday! We enjoyed the spa's relaxing treatments and spent some time in the sauna, which was just heavenly. The only downside was that using the spa came with an extra charge, so be prepared for that. 😊

The Maria Hotel features stunning decor with beautiful sculptures and calming aesthetics throughout its modern spaces. The staff treated me like I was royalty from the very first moment. I left for my room and couldn't help but notice the luxurious touches, especially the iPad system to control music and lights. The chocolates left for my partner's birthday added a special touch. The spa experience was heavenly, but I was frustrated that spa access came at an additional charge and had time restrictions, limiting us to just 1 hour and 30 minutes. This felt too restricting for such a luxurious setting. I found the restaurant's food portions quite small considering the prices, which made dining there a bit disappointing. I expected a little more from the breakfast options as well. Yet, the atmosphere was lovely, and the staff in the Garden Terrace Restaurant provided top-notch service. The kind words and assistance from Bryan really stood out during our stay. The silence in the upscale neighborhood was delightful, but navigating the hotel's layout took some getting used to, given it comprises several buildings connected by courtyards. Overall, this hotel ranks high on my list for luxury accommodations in Helsinki, but keeping the extra costs in mind is essential to ensure everything aligns with expectations.

Luxurious, Luxurious, Luxurious

I felt like royalty in my Junior Spa Suite with a sauna in the shower, an incredible touch of relaxation! 🌟 The iPad controls for music and lighting made everything so modern and convenient, transforming it into a tech-savvy paradise. Plus, the staff goes above and beyond, like a thoughtful birthday surprise of chocolates waiting for us. talk about attention to detail!

Strongly recommend! ❤️❤️
