"Located east of the city center within easy walking distance of most of Helsinki's main sights, the 135-room Eurohostel offers some of the cheapest rates we found in this costly town." Full review

Some rooms even have a sauna for no extra cost, so it's worth requesting one of these on the off chance.

"A five-minute uphill walk from the main train station, this property is one block from the main shopping street and right on Kamppi Square." Full review

The large room count keeps staffers busy and unable to respond quickly to special requests.
