The Radisson Blue Plaza 5***** hotel was booked for a visit to Helsinki for the New Year holidays. The reservation was made on the hotel website, booked a couple of months in advance, it turned out 75 euros DBL / night. Breakfast and use of the sauna are already included in the price.
The hotel is very decent, with well-placed management, although the equipment and furnishings of the rooms and premises are no longer the first freshness.
Two receptionists speak excellent Russian.
Despite the fact that we arrived a few hours before check-in, we didn’t have to wait for a room - we were issued cards from the room in a few minutes.

ACCOMMODATION: The hotel is located in the historic part of the city, just a few hundred meters from the railway station. The Cathedral is approximately 600 meters away. We got a room on the 7th floor. The room had a 26-inch Philips LCD TV set, a safe, a kettle with accessories, an iron, an ironing board, a trouser press, disposable slippers, a minibar with a very decent selection.
Room furniture is made of environmentally friendly materials. Wi-Fi access cards were issued at the reception. The toilet room is small, but comfortable, with a bathtub. Plumbing company Oras, in a bath with a thermostat - very convenient. From the soap-rylno accessories were present: soap, gel, shampoo and lotion, shower cap.
BREAKFAST:
Breakfast seemed rather weak - no salmon, not even herring in wine sauce. Covered in several halls of the 1st floor. From hot: eggs, scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon, fried mushrooms. Orange and grapefruit from the Zuko machine. Tomato juice like human - from the package. By default, coffee is served for breakfast - thermoses-jugs of coffee and milk jugs are already served on the tables. The coffee is sour for my taste. Tea bags and empty jugs are displayed next to the boiler.
From cold cuts: regular ham, cheese, fresh tomatoes, fresh and pickled cucumbers, olives, lettuce.
Excellent selection of fruits: oranges, apples, pears, melon, watermelon, canned pineapples and peaches, fruit salad.
There were muesli, delicious pastries and jams.
Loved the homemade yoghurts.

SERVICE: Very worthy. Cleaned clean, the staff is not seen or heard.
The sauna for hotel guests is located on the second floor, it works for men / women on time - it's convenient.

RESULT: A very decent hotel. Convenient for travelers to Helsinki by train or plane
