This family-run boutique hotel in the heart of Helsinki offers stylish, welcoming rooms with a Nordic vibe. Their Finnish home-style breakfast makes sure that you will be ready for a day exploring the city.

SHOP

Snurre
Malminrinne 1 B

A must-visit for any wool lover. Snurre is a cosy yarn shop with a wide selection of high-quality fibres from well-known international brands as well as small, local producers. Feel free to sit down for a moment, take out your WIP and knit a couple of rows.

EAT

Café Regatta
Merikannontie 8

Probably one of the cutest and most unique places to experience a moment of true Nordic hygge. In a small, 120-year-old wooden cabin by the sea, freshly brewed coffee and Finnish cinnamon buns straight from the oven are served every single day of the year – even Midsummer's Day.
