I loved that Bob W Kaarti welcomed us with a note and Instax camera to use for when we explore Helsinki. The customer support was also really responsive whenever we had questions. The 'washateria' was an absolute blessing because we were at the end of our trip and being able to wash and dry our clothes before travelling again is great. All laundry supplies are also available. I also liked their social kitchen and coworking space. Spacious, quiet, calm and everyone is going about their day with respect to others. I'm definitely looking up Bob W Kaarti in my next destination. A highly recommended stay!

Interior design is beautiful and peaceful. Love all the tiny details. I am amazed that everything is Finish design and original product. Love that is eco friendly. Love that has board games and kitchen and a place to hangout. Bed was excellent. Location is excellent!
We paid for breakfast but we eat one only last day. I would love that you can buy croissants in Hotel. So if you sleep long you want eat full breakfast but you can get something else. I was surprised that we have to pay extra for sauna. And we found out only on our last day that there is WhatsApp group for the guests.

One of the unique stays which I had, the interior of this hotel is impressive and they had used the non conventional methods of making guests comfortable. Each and every corner of the room and common areas are designed thoughtfully which is self explanatory. The support was available on WhatsApp and they fulfilled every request which we had. We also got little souvenirs to remember the place. Definitely will recommend this.
I was expecting the cleaning to be done in between our stay but it didn’t matter much. But overall the experience was good so this can be overlooked.

The location is great! The room is clean and tidy! I love the French press and the coffee! They provide you with a Polaroid camera which makes for quite an experience! The bed is comfortable! Great restaurants near by and the walking to all tourist attractions is easy from here. A super market or literally 1 min walk from the hotel entrance! The hotel is also very accommodating! They allowed us to check in early. The app makes everything easy to access!
So we made the booking with “breakfast included”. What we didn’t expect is that there is no breakfast on site. We had the option of going to three cafes and redeem a voucher. Not the best “value” for money. Not a negative but some new and different. Not to my liking.

I had stayed at another BOB W in Helsinki before and now travelling with my partner booked another one. It was again an excellent stay! We love the concept of paying attention to sustainability combined with all comfort one needs away from home. The shared kitchen/lounge is very nice. The location was very central and in spite of being located next to a night club there was no noise at all in the building. Communication via the app worked perfectly. Highly recommended!
The bathroom is a bit tiny but ok. I would expect that people would take off their shoes (wet and with snow) when walking from outside into the common kitchen/living room but even the staff was not doing that. The places recommended for breakfast were full each day. But no problem there were enough other options in the neighbourhood.

It’s a good project with no human reception onsite. Room is spacious and the bed was comfortable Staff is responsive to online questions Room and bathroom were very clean. French press coffee and some good tea in the room was great! They also had small oat milk pouches in the fridge and also some welcome chocolates, which was great! Hotel Location is good, walkable to the centre (around 1 km)
Luggage room has very few lockers and is always full, so don’t count on it. You can leave it outside the lockers at your risk. Temperature control in room doesn’t work. Kitchen in the room is not of use without a stove or a sink. But there is a bigger kitchen on the ground floor. So it’s ok.

Laundry room and social kitchen are a very added value. We used them and we love them. In the social kitchen we only took a cup of tea and waited for our laundry, but the ambience was cozy and quiet. Also every part of the furniture and the equipments are really nice! Nice room, funny equipment, free gifts (like a beautiful tote bag) and above all Polaroid at our disposal! Nice location, right close to the center and to Kauppatori and to many markets, pubs and restaurants. Staff very kind and always ready to answer you.
Only the luggage room was completely unsatisfactory. Baggage stayed one upon another and to pick up our before leaving was quiet challenging. Also the space on the lockers was full! This is a point to improve.

Location was good, a supermarket just in front and generally very central. It was well indicated once arriving at the front door. However, I had to walk quite a bit from the (central) bus station which was not so easy because the gravel that got stuck often in the wheels of the luggage. Overall nice design and well equipped (even Yoga mats). Power sockets in all the right places.
The fact that there is no reception person to talk to is a disadvantage to me. Somehow you have to figure out everything yourself. What do you do when your phone is dead and you cannot check again which code you have or which room you are in? Also that upon arrival you have to open the door with a passcode with frozen fingers (in February) was not to my liking. Another minor dysfunction was the toilet shower, when you took it off the wall the water tap began to run. It stopped when you activated the toilet shower though.

This aparthotel is one of the best I ever visited. I highly recommend it for a business trip as well for holiday and sightseeing tours. It is situated at the heart of Helsinki, near all main historical and administrative sites, in a beautiful, chic and quite area. The communication with manager with very easy through messengers. To reach hotel and get into the apartment was very easy too, with code numbers. A room was quite large, comfortable and stylish, with modern equipment. A bed was comfortable too. The bathroom with a modern shower and all shampoo you need. I will definitely return to this hotel when I visit Helsinki next time.
Nothing.

Bob W is a dream! The retro-style room is simply perfect! Equipped with everything and more, from the USB sockets near the bed and a phone charging cable, to the soft lighting system. The bathroom is very clean and equipped with everything you need (cotton swabs and makeup remover pads, large bottles of soap, shampoo and conditioner). In addition, on the blackboard in the room we found an instant camera for taking souvenir photos, and a free shopping bag. But the real touch of class is the sauna, which by booking becomes an intimate and private experience, a real cure-all against the harsh cold of the city. Also noteworthy is the check-in system, automatic and keyless, without stress. If I ever return to Helsinki, Bob, we will see each other again!
