Very family friendly and excellent staff. The outside of the building looks a little junky. The inside was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent. Please note that if you have kids the twin beds are separate and cannot be combined into one bed if you get the family room. The shutto driver was excellent

Very clean room with helpful staff. The rooms are very small and bed hurt my back. Last shuttle to the airport leaves at 9am on Saturdays. Not convenient for my later flight. I couldn't tell if my breakfast was included in my reservation or if I would have to pay more.

We had a family room because of a layover with Finnair. Very satisfied. Close to the airport and free airport shuttle. Close to a store. Room: Nice and modern. Perfect for us. Small bathroom but was okey. Great for a family of 4. Breakfast: Ok. Had the things you need for a good breakfast but a simple selection. Service: Good

Wonderful place to stay near airport

This place is a short walk from the tram. It’s clean and comfortable with a cute, retro exterior. They even put out a great hot breakfast starting at 5 am for early travelers and a cold breakfast as early as 3. Don’t hesitate to stay here.

The front desk clerk was friendly and informative. The rooms were nice and clean. The restaurant atmosphere was warm and inviting and the food was great! The breakdast buffet was over the top, it covered most every food choice! This stop made our flight layover very pleasant. The shuttle from and back to the airport was a blessing. I highly recommend this hotel and their long list of amenities! Thank you!

6/10 Good

The Pilot Hotel is as described an airport hotel. It has a convenient shuttle bus to and from the airport which was my main reason for booking there. I had not expected it to be in such a residential area quite far from any amenities when there are other hotels near the airport which are better placed for these. The room was on the small side but breakfast was good and varied.

One Night Long Layover

Overnight stay due to Long layover. Small but clean room. Food at hotel is expensive but convenient. They do not supply anything extra such as disposable razor, etc… Breakfast is wonderful. Staff is polite and helpful. I will stay again.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

I was skeptical at first, but this hotel turned out to be perfect for our overnight stay. Free airport shuttle, surprisingly good breakfast, and a clean, comfy (though small) room. I had a late-night Caesar salad from the restaurant that was delicious. The location is great too just a 15-minute walk to the Jumbo mall. Best of all, when I forgot my phone at the lobby, the staff made sure it reached me at the airport right away. Excellent service!

10/10 Exceptional

I loved my stay at the Pilot Hotel! While the facility is a bit older than some in the area, the Pilot is near lovely quiet neighborhoods which made for a nice walk. No traffic noise disturbing sleep. Tiny room, but comfortable and the shower was great and the water was hella hot! But the best thing about the Pilot was the staff. I emailed them in advance asking how to locate the shuttle. Jerry wrote back and in great detail wrote out a step my step guide on how to find just the right bus lane and how to identify the correct van. After a blurry 24 hours of flying I appreciated having a clear guide. And the gal who checked me in (sorry, forgot her name) was also friendly and helpful. I regret my stay was short as I understand that the restaurant is very good and a local hangout. 100 % would stay here again!

6/10 Good

I stayed here for just one night before flying out of Helsinki, and it was a practical choice. The location is ideal—close to shopping and easy to reach, especially when time is tight. What really drove my selection were the free airport shuttle and complimentary breakfast, both of which added great value. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout, making the short stay smooth and stress-free. Breakfast was decent—not exceptional, but enough to start the day. Overall, the hotel isn’t bad, but not great either. If you’re looking for a convenient stopover with useful amenities, it’s a solid option.

8/10 Very good

It was a nice room and breakfast was very good. Disappointed in the shuttle service not working because I stayed during the mid summer weekend. A taxi was €20 or there was a bus but it included a 7 minute walk with luggage was not ideal. Front desk was nice and held my luggage while I explored the city which was a 40 minute bus ride. Because the shuttle service was not working that weekend, I almost feel better off booking a hotel in the city center. The breakfast and staff was friendly and room was clean which was a positive.
