Hotel Kämp is the address for a special Helsinki trip. It faces the Esplanadi park at Pohjoisesplanadi 29, a few minutes’ walk from the Market Square, Senate Square and the harbour, in a landmark building that has hosted the city’s artists, politicians and visiting dignitaries since the late nineteenth century. Its 210 rooms run from Deluxe rooms to the grand Mannerheim Suite, decorated in a classic European style with marble bathrooms. The Kämp Spa draws on Finnish traditions, with a pool and sauna area and relaxation spaces, and Restaurant À La Kämp is the place for a celebratory dinner. Service is the strong point: 24-hour room service and a well-connected concierge who can book saunas, tables and tours.
Living in it: you are steps from the Esplanadi, the design shops and the waterfront, so this is the base for walking everywhere and dashing back to the warmth on a winter afternoon.
Trade-offs: rates sit at the very top of the Helsinki market, and the classic style will not suit travellers who want Nordic minimalism. Book spa treatments and weekend dinners ahead.
