Haven Hotel Shuttles

A shining resort at the heart of Helsinki’s famous Kaartinkaupunki neighborhood, Hotel Haven offers pristine rooms adorned with country-inspired layouts. The old red brick building is as striking inside as it is outside, with rooms including large living areas and sleek neutral-tone accents. Certain suites also add separate living & dining rooms alongside chandeliers and fireplaces, with convenient perks including free breakfast and Wi-Fi. Perks available on-site include a spacious kitchen & restaurant made scenic with an outdoor terrace, not to mention complimentary shuttles to Helsinki Airport. Other means of transportation include the Kauppatori Light Rail Station as well as the Kauppatori Ferry Terminal, with more liberating trips across Finland’s capital can be found through private vehicle options such as sedans, vans and SUVs as well as spacious meet-and-greet services ranging from the luxury of stretched limousines to the fast ease of taxis.

Walking distance from the sounds & smells wafting from South Harbour’s historic Old Market Hall, the hotel is especially great at getting to know downtown’s waterside gems. Head to Market Square afterward, located around the corner from Old Market Hall and home to year-round vendors ranging from food stands to docked boats, many of which trudge through winter with heated tents. Cross the Kanavakatu bridge to reach the east side’s Katajanokka island as well, where families and business travelers alike can soak up the sun at Allas Sea Pool or admire sunset from SkyWheel Helsinki. And of course, various theaters and art exhibits make up the historic space with world-renowned entertainment ranging from Savoy Teatteri intimate playwright space to astounding views of human ingenuity at the redbrick Design Museum Helsinki. Business travelers planning to attend an event at Torikorttelit down the street should also consider nearby restaurants for added flavor, especially popular hangouts being the candlelit Salutorget as well as traditional Finnish from Restaurant Savotta.
