“The Scandic Grand Central occupies a landmark building, and the interiors manage to be both grand and inviting, with a particularly lovely lobby. I appreciate the hotel's dedication to maintaining the historic architecture while providing modern amenities; the sauna alone is worth the stay after a day in Helsinki's chill. It's hard to beat the location, with the train station next door and everything central within easy reach, though I wish the restaurant hours were more extensive.”
