Hotel special features and service levels

Hotel Katajanokka is a modern lifestyle hotel, offering a charming blend of ambiance and warm hospitality in a historic prison setting. The building originally served as a prison until 2002, with its oldest part dating back to 1837. The long and colorful history is still reflected in the preserved central corridor, exterior walls, and the prison wall, all protected by the Finnish Heritage Agency. The former prison chapel, now a restored banquet hall, along with five red-brick meeting rooms and Restaurant Linnankellari, provides excellent venues for meetings, negotiations, and corporate events.

Room options

The hotel houses 106 cozy rooms within its brick walls. The room décor and amenities are designed with top-notch quality in mind, respecting the history of the old prison building. The thick walls and soundproof windows ensure a peaceful night’s sleep. All room rates include wireless internet, access to the gym, and complimentary weekend morning sauna.
