Positives: I love how clean this hotel is even years after commencing operations. For instance, there are no signs of wear and tear in the shower - shower caulk has no mould, tile grout is perfectly clean. Many hotels, even 5 star hotels, struggle to maintain this. Everything is exceptionally cleaned and well maintained. I was updated to a sauna room which was really lovely. The sauna rooms are unique and I highly recommend them. I love the music, the dark and moody feel throughout the hotel and the breakfast is superb - a 5 star experience. Lastly, the location is fantastic. I prefer Bulevadi, close to the design district, then in the heart of Kluuvi. So this is my preferred location.
Negatives: This is my third stay at Lapland Bulevadi over the years. Twice I haven't been Able to eat at the restaurant at night as they have been too busy and were not staffed to handle the load. However the bar tender did give me a drink on the house as a result. This isn't too bad as there are plenty of restaurants in the area but just an observation. In my most recent stay there was a loud noise that the air con would make occasionally which would sometimes wake me up when falling asleep, it would then stop again. And I couldn't work out how to turn the aircon off? I don't like sleeping with it on and there isn't a simply off Botton like other hotels. I am sure it is simply and will just ask reception next time.
