Raddison SAS Hotel, Espoo [near Helsinki], Finland

August 16, 2006 by Chris |

If you love Aalto, then this hotel will suit you very well. it lies on the water just outside of the city in a small [once] planned community named Espoo. This wooded town is home to the campus of the VTT which was planned by the Modernist Master.

The rooms are adequate - not fancy. no air conditioning and windows that work! the smell of the nearby pines a treat. the only setback is that there are little to no food options around the hotel as it is isolated. however, it is also replete with taxis who ALL take credit cards without a hint of a grimace.

i would certainly return.
