About this place

Residential Hotels Franzén

Welcome to Residential Hotels Franzén, in the heart of Helsinki! This beautiful studio is a true value for money deal. A hotel standard is maintained throughout the apartment, and absolutely everything from coffee & Wifi to shampoo & conditioner is included in your stay.

You can watch the 65” 4K Smart TV while laying in 100% satin sheets, do your laundry free of charge, and reach the most trendy bars & restaurants in Helsinki just by going downstairs. The micro location of this flat is awesome!
This private apartment is clean, beautiful and located high up on a residential building. The window is on the side of the inner courtyard, so you will enjoy plenty of privacy. The apartment is 18 square meters in size, so you will find everything easily. There’s everything you need for cooking, eating, showering, and everyday living. You even have access to a dedicated laundry room with professional grade washing machines and dryers. The place has a cozy feel due to the dark wood materials found in the apartment. This apartment is built in 2023 purposely for high end short-term rental housing, so furniture is brand new and you wont find any personal belongings of the host.

As a professional host, I'm prepared to go the extra mile to ensure the satisfaction of my guests. I also have a team that helps me maintain this unit. My guests can contact me any time for help with anything.

The TV is a 65" 4K Smart TV. The TV has Android as an operating system, so you can use it for all sorts of purposes, and casting your device’s screen onto the TV is easy via the built-in chromecast.

The Wifi network details are found in the apartment, and also in this listing. The Wifi is reserved for you only, and it’s fast enough for demanding use.

City

Getting around

There’s a tram stop in Bear Park, and Sörnäinen (M) metro station is right near the apartment also. Both the metro and the tram are convenient ways to move around in the city. There are two metro lines in Helsinki, east and west, and almost all trams from Bear Park go to the central railway station.

Getting to the apartment from the airport is easy. Just take the I/L train from the airport to the Central Railway Station, and from there switch to a metro. A metro from the Central Railway Station to Sörnäinen takes a few minutes.

Also, buses operate from the airport directly to Sörnäinen & Hakaniemi. You can walk to the apartment from both locations.

Parking is free on the street in front of the apartment during weekends, and there's a finnpark private parking garage near the apartment. Also, there's a free 24h parking area approximately 1km from the apartment. I can send further details on this parking area after your reservation is confirmed.
