Ok stay, breakfast was dissapointing
The stay was ok for us. The hotel and rooms were beautiful and spa (and service there) was super nice. However, it would've been nice to know before the stay that spa will always need to be booked and nost times were gone once we arrived. The breakfast was a mess. The space for buffet was too small and crowded and we came at 10 and still most thing were already gone. The service quality was also off because we ordered coffee once we arrived but had to wai 30min for black coffee. Same thing happened with the egg order and we never even saw the a la carte menu for breakfast

Beautiful hotel in a very nice area, quiet and convenient location. Room servicing bit hit and miss, which let it down slightly, but reception responded appropriately.

Boring but good
Very nice hotel in Helsinki. The location is not the best, as it resides away from the hot spot of the city, but it's still quite near. The rooms are very good, but everything is quite boring and bland. The hallways are cheap. There are stereo systems in the room, so of course there was a party in the neighbors room. The spa was super and the breakfast was best I've ever had. All in all good getaway, but not the best.

Best stay in Helsinki
A world-class hotel with stunning unique rooms, excellent service and a wonderful spa area. Will definitely stay here again next time I go to work in Helsinki.
What did come to mind was that the room key didn’t work for certain locked corridors and the stairwell that led to the hotel room, which meant that you had to take detours to the hotel room, sometimes outside, which was a bit frustrating as I had quite a few bags.

Pure relaxation in the heart of Helsinki
This was one of the most memorable hotel stays we have ever had. The junior spa suite with our personal sauna was height of relaxation. The staff and breakfast were simply incredible. Highly recommended.

Plush hotel with excellent service.
Lovey refurbishment and wonderful staff. So helpful and friendly. Super comfortable bed. Just thought that having the bathroom heating on was unnecessary. Highly recommended

Excellent place to stay.
Hotel Maria was amazing. The beds were perfect and it was dead silent at night, so we slept perfectly after a red eye flight. The service was fantastic. Love how you can control everything from a tablet they provide. The minibar was also great and not insanely priced (all alcohol in Finland is expensive). The restaurant was excellent. And the cocktails we had at the bar were amazing. Maybe the best Old Fashioned I've ever had.
The gym was great. Had it to myself 2 days in a row.
We had 2 tiny issues. Our shower drain was clogged when we arrived. They fixed it right away while we had dinner.
We were told breakfast ends at 11. We missed the first breakfast because we were so jet lagged. The next day (Monday) we went down at 10:05 and were told breakfast ended at 10. For some reason breakfast ends early on weekdays. I don't understand since people on vacation probably aren't paying attention to the day of the week. At least I don't.

1 Star stay, left over condoms found on floor
Below is recap of note sent to management by email without the professional courtesy to reply or make contact. I also asked front desk to have GM contact me during my stay, did not happen. I guess it starts at the top with this attitude.

Ok
Hotel Marias states that the “goal is to apply for a Green Key certification” goal is good but actions could be done right away. Nowadays it is very common in Finland to have recycling in the rooms with at least three bins combined (Bio, Plastic, Other) Some hotels even have metal bin near the reception. Also there could be options for more sustainable food in the breakfast. The price / Luxury rate is not met and the view and the area is dull, but the staff was very very good and extremely clean. 😊
