Hotel Kamp

Great Except Internet

Everything was great...except charging 7 euros an hour for Internet is archaic...get in the 21st century...otherwise it is the best hotel in Helsinki..ok a little pricey $40 hamburgers

Good for business, just ok for leisure.

I think this hotel is ok for business travelers, but for a leisure traveler I don't think this one provides the best experience and I'd pass next time. The problem is that it seemed like every little thing in the room had a price tag on it or came with an outrageous extra charge. Need to use the umbrella, contact the lobby for pricing, want a different kind of pillow, contact the lobby for pricing, need to use the internet, 20 euro charge no problem. I mean even the mini bar is one of those kinds where if you accidentally touch something it electronically bills you automatically. Charging extra for everything is ok if you are a business traveler and someone else is paying, but if you are a leisure traveler and have put down your own hard earned money (especially at what you pay a night here), wondering if you are going to be charged for every little thing in the room takes away from the leisure experience in my view. Instead of being relaxing and fun, it was actually borderline stressing (like am I going to be charged if I use this coffee mug, it does say it can mine for the low price of 20 euro). The good things is that the location is the best in Helsinki and the room was very comfortably furnished. But otherwise I would suggest leisure travelers try something else.

Courteous and Helpful Staff

Hotel Kamp is a beautiful hotel with a front desk staff that is extremely helpful and courteous. The room was large and very clean. The bed was a tad bit uncomfortable and there was a lack of TV stations available. The bar and the Japenese restaurant were very good (although the restaurant was understaffed) Overall a very nice hotel with a perfect location.

Met my expectations, and they were high

Location is perfect, outside of the hotel is striking, lobby is quite nice, staff are friendly and helpful, and the room itself was very spacious (especially for Europe) and beautiful. My expectations were high given that this is a luxury collection Starwood property and those expectations were generally met. Minor irritations included: wishing the bed was more comfortable, in-room dining menu was just ok, and there's some type of underground drilling that the hotel can't do anything about that you hear on occassion. Perhaps higher floor would help. Would absolutely return.
