Hotel Rantapuisto (Helsinki, Finland)

When you first pull up to this hotel, you will instantly be at peace. The hotel is all glass and timber, and opens up to the beautiful forest around it. There are also lovely grassy hills right to the rocky shores.

Right outside of the hotel, you will find there is a bus stop. Which will take you right to the metro, and then into the heart of Helsinki. With such quick, easy transport, you can count on seeing everything.

Not only is the surrounding area beautiful, but the views that come along with your room are unforgettable. The rooms look out to either the sea or the lush forest, providing the perfect scenery.

One thing you won't get during your stay here is a wealth of information. The hotel doesn't provide much about the hotel itself, nor the surrounding area. You will have to know which questions to ask to get helpful answers.

After 11 p.m., you won't find much in the way of staff. The hotel staff is gone at this point, so whatever you need, you will have to wait.

Not only is the staff a little rough around the edges, but they are very strict with the curfew as well. When it's getting to midnight, you may feel as though you are ordered to get to your bedroom.
