(291 reviews) The studio is a perfect size for a solo stay — cozy, comfortable, and equipped with a small kitchen, ideal for preparing a warm homemade meal on cooler days. Just a heads-up: the iron and hairdryer are kept in shared storage, so you’ll need to self-service them when needed. The location is excellent, with easy access to daily groceries, Prisma, and nearby metro and bus stations, all within a short walking distance. A bonus for Marimekko fans — there’s a store nearby offering great prices too! Check-in and check-out were easy and hassle-free. I really like that it’s more of a self-service stay without much hotel-style staffing — personally, I adore this kind of setup. It makes the whole experience feel calm, private, and effortless.😊 Reviewed on 4 Nov 2025 ![Bob W Helsinki Kamppi](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/116000000/115570000/115566200/115566172/65d31d2c_y.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) ### Bob W Helsinki Kamppi Kamppi Save 100% on your flight £482 per person 19 May - 26 May found 1 day ago Return direct flight included London (LHR) to Helsinki (HEL) 9.2/10 Wonderful!
