Radisson Blu Aleksanteri Hotel, Helsinki is a conversion of the existing Solo Sokos Hotel Aleksanteri, which has gone through a thorough upgrade in the brand and guest experience standards. All 151 rooms and suites offer a high-quality, intimate, boutique hotel-experience in the bustling city center of Helsinki.

Each of our hotels create an individual experience of the strengths of the global Radisson Blu brand,” said Tomi Peitsalo, the Vice President of SOK International Hotel Business and Radisson Blu Regional Director, Finland.
Individual service has always been the backbone of the hotel and it has now been even further enriched to meet the global trends and customers’ expectations. To ensure first-class guest experience, the renewal is based on a customer survey that revealed that both business and leisure travelers are looking for genuine and warm-hearted experiences while staying at a hotel.
“The identity of the Radisson Blu Aleksanteri Hotel, Helsinki is based on an authentic and personal touch which has become a major trend in the travel business. Here international guests will be able to catch a glimpse of the Finnish dream home – with features and atmosphere we all dream of,” commented Klaus Ek, General Manager of the Radisson Blu Aleksanteri Hotel, Helsinki.
The entire hotel, from guest rooms to the restaurant echoes the authentic atmosphere of a dream and warm home. At ground level, the hotel opens up to a unified area featuring Aleksanteri Lounge, where the hotel guests and restaurant guests can relax, dine, work, meet friends or enjoy a quiet moment or two, just like at home.
The Blu Dreams sleeping experience focuses on comprehensive sleeping comfort and individual needs. One of its elements is the Magic Bed, with an intelligent mattress, which molds individually to the person, paired with a range of pillows and duvets to choose from.
The Aleksanteri Hotel’s breakfast features the signature Radisson Blu’s Super Breakfast concept, which recently celebrated World Water Day, by demonstrating the benefits of a well-thought over dining experience that nourishes all senses and conserves water, world’s most precious natural resource. The Super Breakfast is based on high-quality products, local specialties and a visually stunning presentation.
