Hotel or nearby restaurant offerings
Restaurant Version is our take on what an eatery and cocktail bar should be. We believe dining should be about joy: good food and good moments, inspired by California’s vibrant flavors, all prepared over a charcoal grill. Version Drinkery, our cocktail bar, offers top-notch cocktails. Our wine list features a wide selection of California wines, carefully selected natural wines, and European classics. Thanks to our location, you’ll also find many of Helsinki’s trendiest restaurants nearby, offering something for every taste.
Distance from the center and significant landmarks
The hotel is located in the heart of Helsinki, at the corner of Unioninkatu and Eteläinen Makasiinikatu. It’s just a few minutes’ walk to the city center, and the nearby attractions include the Old Market Hall and Market Square. Helsinki Cathedral and the Uspenski Cathedral are also just a stone’s throw away from the hotel.
