Tripplo’s hotel summary
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 20 October 2026 · How we review hotels
Lapland Hotels Bulevardi brings Finnish Lapland to the middle of Helsinki. Reindeer furs, antler details and warm materials set the tone, and the hotel sits on Bulevardi in Kamppi, within an easy walk of the shops, the bus terminal and the centre. Guests speak most warmly about the breakfast at Kultá, with its porridge, smoked reindeer and northern produce, and about rooms where a private sauna or a large design bathtub turns an evening in into part of the trip. The staff are described as friendly and flexible, and the rooms as quiet. The sauna, however, comes with some rooms only, and there is no spa or pool to fall back on. Kultá can be closed on some evenings, so check before planning dinner in, and a few rooms run small or warm. Couples and design-minded travellers who book a sauna room will get the most out of a stay here.
Guests score it 9.4 out of 10 — the average across the 12 hotels we list in Helsinki is 9.1.
- Kamppi Shopping Centre is about a 7-minute walk away and the bus terminal around 600 metres, and guests repeatedly say that most of central Helsinki can be reached on foot.
- Breakfast is one of the most praised parts of a stay. Guests single out the porridge, the smoked reindeer and the wide choice of northern ingredients, and Kultá also serves modern Lappish dishes à la carte in the evening.
- The private saunas are a big part of the appeal, but they come with some rooms only and there is no hotel spa or pool. If the sauna matters, book a room that includes one.
- One guest arriving on a Sunday found Kultá closed for dinner, and another felt evening service in the restaurant did not match the breakfast team. It is worth checking opening hours before you plan a night in.
