Indigo Helsinki - Boulevard
Nordic-modern boutique with a neighborhood-first attitude. Local art on the walls, hardwood floors, Nespresso in every room. Feels like the city rather than a chain property, despite being IHG-owned.
Book a courtyard-facing room if noise is a concern — guests consistently call them quieter than street-side rooms
Why It Matters
Four-time winner of Finland's Leading Boutique Hotel (2024 is the fourth consecutive year). Holds both the Nordic Swan Ecolabel and a gold-level LEED certificate — rare for a city boutique. The neighborhood story runs deep: everything from the bistro bread to the Pelago bikes (built nearby) references the Punavuori/Design District context.
Hotel Indigo Helsinki – Boulevard sits on Bulevardi, a 200-year-old tree-lined street in the heart of the Punavuori/Design District neighborhood. The 120-room boutique property earns its reputation through sharp Scandinavian design, murals by local artists like Pietari Posti and Linda Linko, and a genuinely engaged staff. It has won Finland's Leading Boutique Hotel title four years running — and Finland's Leading Design Hotel in 2024 — which is a real achievement in a city that takes design seriously. No pool, and some Standard rooms are compact at 15 sqm, but the experience more than compensates.
Where You'll Stay
3 room types available
One Bedroom Suite (Junior Suite)
From EUR250 / nightThe only suite in the hotel, located on the top floor. At 37–38 sqm it's a meaningful upgrade — you get a separate living room area and a bathroom with a proper bathtub, which no other room category has. King bed, the full array of in-room amenities, and the best elevated views in the building.
1 King Bed · 37 sqm
Premium Room
From EUR160 / nightA step up in space and perks — Premium rooms run 21 to 31 sqm and include a complimentary minibar on top of all Standard amenities. Separate seating area in some configurations. Same Scandinavian design language as Standard, but consistently on the more spacious end.
2 Twin Beds or 1 King Bed · 26 sqm
Standard Room
From EUR120 / nightThe entry-level option — and honest about it. Rooms range from 15 to 30 sqm, so size varies quite a bit within this category. All come with hardwood floors, Nespresso machines, rainfall shower, Biology toiletries, bathrobes, flat-screen TV with Chromecast, in-room safe, and air conditioning. Murals by local artists including Pietari Posti give each floor its own color palette and theme.

On Property
How you'll actually spend your days.
The hotel curates a neighborhood guide to Punavuori and the Design District, including staff recommendations for galleries, boutiques, and cafés on the Bulevardi and surrounding streets.
The hotel offers complimentary loaner Pelago bicycles — a brand actually manufactured in the Punavuori neighborhood. Good way to reach the Design District shops, Market Square, and other central Helsinki sights without paying for trams.
Recorded yoga lessons are available through the hotel television in all rooms, so you can follow along before heading to the yoga room in the Body, Mind & Soul Studio.
