Norwegian hotel operator Citybox opened its first hotel in Finland, Citybox Helsinki, in February 2024, offering affordable accommodation without compromising quality. Situated in the popular Hakaniemi-Kallio area, the hotel provides convenient access to Helsinki's city center.
Citybox Helsinki boasts 178 rooms, encompassing a variety of double rooms, family rooms for up to six people — a hit with families and friends traveling together on a budget — and two junior suites. Guests also benefit from a range of amenities including guest kitchen facilities, a cozy lobby with a TV corner, a laundromat and a meeting space.
The hotel is part of the newly completed Lyyra block, which is expected to achieve LEED Platinum certification, underscoring its commitment to sustainability. "The feedback has exceeded all our expectations, with Citybox Helsinki scoring an exceptional 9.2/10 based on 4000 reviews, surpassing the ratings of many 5-star hotels," says Eivind Hjulstad, CEO of Citybox.
To streamline the guest experience, Citybox Helsinki has implemented check-in terminals that allow guests to check in, pay for their stay, and check out quickly and efficiently. The check-out process now takes less than 3 seconds.
