Well located hotel.
Well located hotel, within 5 minutes walk of the Helsinki attractions, near the ferry port and Upsala Cathedral. Despite being full, the check-in and service was good. Good selection of continental and cooked breakfasts.

Scandic Grand Marina Check in went smoothly. No delays. Staff polite, efficient, and friendly. The room has 2 closets. The bedroom is about 9 feet by 20 feet. We had a King bed. There was a safe, refrigerator, and hot water heater in the room. In addition to this there was an additional chair, and a desk with a chair and lamp. The bathroom had a sink, adequate countertop space, and a shower stall. The hand held shower fixture could actually reach the sink. The towel racks in the bathroom are heated, so things dry quickly on the rack. The room was not brand new, but it was clean and in very good condition. There are several electrical outlets, but no USB ports in the room. There is a complimentary breakfast that is very very good. Housekeeping staff were very helpful and polite. They made me feel like a valued customer. The location is convenient. We took a train from the airport to the Central station (that was about $4 per person). From there it was about a $25 cab fare to our hotel, so divide that between 4 people in our cab). The hotel is close to 2 supermarkets, close to a tram stop, and close to the ferry line as well as a local marketplace where you can get local food. You can purchase an all day tram ticket for about $8, and buy that ticket from one of the nearby supermarkets: Alepa Jungman. Many of the local highlights are within walking distance. I would certainly come back to this hotel again.

Well placed comfortable, if cool, hotel
The hotel Was well placed for access to the main sites. IT was close to the Market square, President's palace, and cathedrals as well as the ferry. Helsinki is not a large city and is very walkable. The room was a moderate size with twin beds.They were quite soft. It appeared there was simply a mattress toper over a spring base. However, this seemed to work and was confortable. There was a desk as well as a comfortable armchair. There were plenty of sockets but no international ones or USB charging ports, so do ensure you bring an adapter. The bathroom with shower (no bath) was functional I did find the room slightly cool and there appeared to be no way of heating it. There is a radiaaor but this was not on. There is also air conditioning but twiddling the temperature seemed to have no effect, either to heat or cool. I was also surprised that the room glasses were never once washed or tidied. I am not sure if this is a Finnish thing or whether I simply had a less fastidious room attendant. Similarly used towels were not changed if hung up and only if left on the floor. The breakfast buffet was generous. Not a worlds worth of cuising, simply a good European spread. Certainly enough to fill up on. In conclusion I liked this hotel. It is in an old dock building and has been converted well. I am likely to stay again when I next return to Finland as I did like the hotel and its position despite a few minor issues

There was no heating anywhere in the hotel, apart from some fan heaters in the restaurant. Overall, rather dark and in need of a refresh. Easy walking to the city centre and a tram route nearby.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I have stayed here before, & was keen to return. However during my stay there were simply not enough staff on duty. Check in took 20 minutes (was over complicated). The room wasn't serviced once in 4 days, so I only had wet towels by the last day. There was no reply when I called Room Service. The bar was closed, though there was a sign saying you could get drinks from reception (a further 20 minutes wait). My room key was disabled after the first night (20 minute queue to rectify the situation). I wanted to raise the issues with Scandic before writing this review, so contacted Scandic via their web site but never got any reply. Scandic are simply running this hotel with too few people, & don't seem to care. I have stayed at Scandic hotels many, many times over the last years, but fear this will be my last. I didn't find a way to complain to Expedia on their web site either.....

Very Convenient for travel on ferries. Plus, if available you can check in early (when ferry arrives) and/ or late for 20 euros. Breakfast was excellent.
