A Monumental Rebirth
Historic Elegance Opposite Central Station
Commanding an unrivaled vantage point directly opposite Helsinki Central Railway Station, NH Collection Helsinki Grand Hansa unites two of the Finnish capital’s most revered historic landmarks: the 1910 Art Nouveau New Student House (Uusi Ylioppilastalo) designed by Armas Lindgren and Wivi Lönn, and the legendary Hotel Seurahuone, an epicenter of Finnish cultural society since the 19th century.
Following a meticulous restoration and rebirth in 2024, the property presents 224 lavishly appointed guestrooms and suites blending neoclassical heritage features, high ceilings, and rich hardwood detailing with contemporary Nordic luxury. Ascend to the iconic Bar Kupoli, an atmospheric cocktail salon housed under the historic building’s ornate rooftop cupola tower framing panoramic vistas across the cityscape.
On the ground floor, Hansa Café Bar & Brasserie serves French-Nordic fusion gastronomy from morning through evening. To unwind, guests escape to the subterranean USVA by Sergey Kovalenko Spa, featuring authentic Finnish wood saunas, aromatherapy steam baths, and a cold plunge ritual, complemented by a 300-square-meter fitness center. Steps from the Ateneum Art Museum, Oodi Central Library, and high-fashion shopping, Grand Hansa is Helsinki’s grandest contemporary gateway.
