City breaks in Helsinki

Helsinki city of design and architecture.
 

Uncover Finnish design classics on your Helsinki city break, with a trip to the Design Museum and shopping spree in the Design District Helsinki. Stroll to Sibelius Park to see the monument to Finland's best-known composer, and pick your way through Market Square's stalls on a leisurely Helsinki city break. Try seasonal asparagus or strawberries and reindeer during your city break.

Dining and unwinding on Helsinki city breaks

Start Helsinki city breaks with Finnish fare like reindeer or herring in a restaurant in the central Erottaja district. As your short break unwinds, splash out in one of Helsinki's many top fine-dining restaurants dotted around the city. In summer, take a boat trip to restaurants located on little islands for fine Helsinki food with a view.

Special places to stay in Helsinki

A Helsinki short break offers hotels to suit all tastes. Choose five-star international luxury with a hotel in the heart of Helsinki, near to the central attractions, dining and nightlife. Or, opt for a budget Helsinki city break, and stay in good-value Helsinki hotels further from the centre.

Things to do on Helsinki city breaks

Check out the modern art at the Kiasma gallery, or admire nature-inspired Nordic creativity at the Design Museum on a Helsinki city break. Then take in the Sibelius Monument and the Neoclassical and Russian Orthodox cathedrals. Make time for shopping on your city break with everything under one roof in the iconic Stockmann store and the best Finnish products in the Design District Helsinki. Or, in summer, take a break from the city with a 15-minute boat trip to Suomenlinna Island and sea fortress.
