Rivoli Jardin Hotel: "Dissappointment,So different than the pics
Satisfaction:
Updated By pennywhistlepoem on April 10, 2007
First of all i gotto say that the hotel is so different than the pictures on internet.I am not even sure if those photos were taken in the hotel. So as a couple who were satisfied by the photos and rewievs, we were so dissapoointed when we arrived there.We felt like we were in a cheap hotel from 80s.The staff was not so helpful and smiling as well. They just gave the room key and told us that the breakfast is between 7 and 10. The rooms were just regular,nothing special,nothing fancy like it seems on internet.Breakfast was just OK,but it was good that they leave a basket of croissant and cookies for the ones who wake up late. The hotels in helsinki are not so hip and charming mostly,and also they are expensive. But thankfully we had a good deal on hotels.com so we paid only 120 euros per night,instead of over 200 euros.

The Ravoli Jardin Hotel is an excellent hotel. Although the rooms were small and simple, they were nice and clean, and good for the cost of the hotel. The hotel has a good location, not too far from the harbor, within easy walking distance of all the downtown attractions. What made this hotel really excellent was the service of the staff. The staff was more than happy to double as tour guides, giving all sorts of advice on places to go, and going out their way to make sure you got to where you wanted to go. The staff had great tips on bars and restaurants. I highly recommend this hotel as an inexpensive place to stay with a very friendly staff.
