Without a doubt, Best Western Premier Hotel Katajanokka remains the most creative and easily recognized hotel in Helsinki. It is located on Katajanokka Island, where the hotel occupies a historical building of a former prison that dates back to 1837. Former cells for prisoners were turned into comfortable guest rooms, and some parts of the building have almost completely maintained their original atmosphere. One of the halls with massive brick walls and grating has become the location of Jailbird restaurant. When the weather permits, visitors of the restaurant can seat on the comfortable open-air terrace. Among extra amenities offered by such an unusual “prison” hotel in Helsinki, travelers will find a sauna and a gym that works round the clock.

The décor of guest rooms and public spaces is made exclusively of natural and eco-friendly materials, and that’s why Radisson Blu hotel in Helsinki possesses the honorable title of an eco-hotel.
