Located in the historic Kruununhaka district in a building designed in 1885 by architect Lagerspetz, the 116-room property will be rebranded later this year as Waldorf Astoria Helsinki. This will follow a short transitional period during which the hotel will remain operational.
The luxury hotel will feature signature dining, a bar, fitness studio and a Nordic wellness spa with a traditional Finnish sauna, blending timeless elegance, unforgettable experiences and culinary mastery for guests throughout their stay.
Patrick Fitzgibbon, senior vice president, development, Europe, Middle East & Africa, Hilton, said, “We’re delighted to be collaborating with M&L Group to introduce the Waldorf Astoria brand to Finland. As we near 300 luxury hotels in EMEA, it’s fantastic to have signed our first in the Nordics. The Finnish capital has seen growing travel demand in recent years, and we look forward to serving an even wider range of traveller needs as we open our fourth property in the city.”
