RED Helsinki
Industrial-Nordic lifestyle hotel. Raw concrete surfaces, dark material palette, local art installations — including Finnish artist Jenni Rope's 24-metre hanging mobile 'Gust of Wind' in the atrium. The vibe is energetic and unpretentious rather than slick or corporate.
Ask for a park-facing room on a higher floor — views over Kaisaniemi Park are the standout feature of the property
Why It Matters
First Radisson RED in Finland, and one of only four in Scandinavia. The building itself — by Anttinen Oiva Arkkitehdit — is a genuine architectural statement in the Kaisaniemi Park corner. Art is woven into the DNA, from the near three-metre lobby sculpture inspired by Helsinki Station's famous lantern carriers to the ceiling installation. Green Key certified.
Finland's first Radisson RED opened in October 2023 in a striking modernist building designed by Anttinen Oiva Arkkitehdit, right on the edge of Kaisaniemi Park — one of Helsinki's oldest green spaces. Finnish design studio Fyra handled the interiors: exposed raw concrete, warm dark wood, and bold RED brand colour touches throughout. 195 rooms, a 24/7 gym with boxing bags, a Finnish sauna, and the RED Bar & Kitchen on the ground floor. No pool, no spa treatments, no parking on-site. But the location is genuinely hard to beat: Central Station is a 5-minute walk away.
Where You'll Stay
5 room types available
Individual Room
The entry-level room and the smallest in the house at just 14 m². Fine for a solo traveller on the move, but genuinely compact. Comes with rain shower, RED-branded bed, espresso maker, flat-screen TV, USB ports, and unlimited Wi-Fi. Not for those who need elbow room.
1 twin · 14 sqm
One Bedroom Suite
At 58 m², easily the most spacious option in the building. Separate bedroom and living room, bathroom with both bath and shower, and suite bathrooms on upper floors that reportedly offer park and city views simultaneously. Sleeps up to 4 with an extra bed. A genuine suite — not just a slightly bigger room.
1 king · 58 sqm
Premium Room
The largest non-suite option at 29 m², with capacity for a third adult (extra bed available). King bed, and the same bold RED design language throughout. A solid choice for anyone wanting real comfort without committing to a suite. Park and station views available.
1 king · 29 sqm
Standard Room
At 18 m², still on the snug side, but works well for a couple with sensible luggage. Flexible bed configuration options — king, queen, or twin — make it one of the most bookable categories. Multiple view options available including Kaisaniemi Park, city, or atrium-facing rooms.
1 king, 1 queen, or 2 twin · 18 sqmSuperior Room
A step up in both space and comfort at 23 m². King bed only — good for couples wanting a bit more room to breathe. Views can include Central Station or Kaisaniemi Park depending on which room you land. The extra square metres make a noticeable difference in a city-centre hotel.
