I loved the cozy atmosphere at Hotel Helka. The stylish decor throughout made me feel right at home. Breakfast options amazed me daily, with a variety catering to different diets. Friendly staff greeted me with a smile, always ready to help. I enjoyed the sauna several times. it was a great way to unwind. However, the cleanliness of my room could have been better. I noticed some dust and a bit of mold in the shower area, which wasn't pleasant. The mattress felt quite firm for my liking, making it hard to get a good night's sleep. Overall, I had a fantastic stay but would appreciate better room maintenance.

Had a cozy stay in the Standard Single Room. The bed was super comfy, which made for a great night's sleep. I liked the stylish decor, and the ceiling painting added a nice touch. However, a coat rack near the entrance would have been helpful. The room felt inviting, but it was a bit small for my liking. Overall, a pleasant space, though it's on the smaller side.

I’d recommend it for solo travelers
What struck me most was the sauna—super private, with separate rooms for men and women. Also, the breakfast was top-notch. they had dietary-friendly options like gluten-free breads and vegan cheese, really impressed me!
Wasn't exactly budget-friendly, but honestly, worth it.

Nice stay with friendly vibes
We had a cozy time here! The staff was super nice, always ready to help. Loved the room decor, it had a nice vibe. The breakfast was pretty solid, some tasty options but wish there were more meats. My only issue was that the room needed a better clean. the coffee mugs weren’t spotless, yikes! Overall, a good place to kick back.
