Ask for a room with a view of South Harbor.
Lonely Planet "On Katajanokka a very short stroll from the Viking Line ferries... The never-ending corridors make it feel like you’re on a ship, but the rooms, with their blond parquet, are typically Nordic." Full review

"The Scandic Grand Marina is a huge, upper-middle-range hotel with 470 rooms housed in an imposing seven-story red brick building that was built as a warehouse in the 1920s." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
