Waldorf Astoria has made its Nordic debut with the opening of Waldorf Astoria Helsinki, unveiling a new era of luxury in the heart of Helsinki. Owned by M&L Group and operated by Hilton under the Waldorf Astoria brand, the landmark property spans four beautifully preserved historic buildings, designed by Finnish architects Evert Lagerspetz and Armas Siitonen.
Waldorf Astoria Helsinki features 116 rooms, including 32 suites. Each of the rooms at Waldorf Astoria Helsinki embody a refined fusion of Nordic minimalism and modern sensibility. Handcrafted furnishings and earthy hues create a calming, tactile ambiance -an elevated nod to Helsinki’s design heritage that feels both contemporary and deeply inviting. The 32 suites offer a tranquil escape, with select rooms featuring in-room saunas, steam rooms, and private terraces with jacuzzis. Attic-style duplex suites showcase original wooden beams preserved by the Finnish Heritage Agency and deliver a distinctive private spa experience.
