For good eats check out... 02 May 2011 Marc, England & Wales:
Cook yourself in the hostel or buy some takeaways on the main place, especially if you come for the first of May
16 May 2011 Andreas, Sweden:
For beautiful nature you should go to Puumala or some other pretty place on lake Saimaa. In wintertime try Tampere. For a more beatiful Scandinavian city, take the ferry to Stockholm!
For good eats check out... 16 May 2011 Andreas, Sweden:
Elite, slightly north of the city centre, is a fantastic restaurant with reasonable prices, with interior intact since they opened in the 1930s. The fried fish in the market square, next to the ferry to Soumenlinna, is basic but great. On Suomenlinna there is a super-nice café on the island south of the hostel. I forget the name but walk past the main museum and across the bridge and then right along the canal toward the shipyard. You will be passing Café Chapman but it's the next one I mean. They have a mean soup and homebaked bread. Also a public sauna, open evenings.
For good eats check out... 26 Dec 2010 Franklin, Brazil:
If you arrive very late it's a little difficult to find something open to eat. In this case you should buy food in Helsink before go to the island.
For great nightlife try... 26 Dec 2010 Franklin, Brazil:
It a very calm place. It is not for who is looking for a nightlife.

Located on a group of islands off the coast of Helsinki, Suomenlinna is a maritime fortress and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A ferry-crossing from the Market Square to Suomenlinna takes just 15 minutes and costs no more than other public transport tickets. Ferries operate from early morning until 2 a.m. Our hostel is just a stone’s throw from the main pier. In addition to accommodation, we offer meals and services for meetings and events.

Formerly a primary school, our hostel is equipped with modern conveniences, WiFi and a computer for guest use. Hostel Suomenlinna is part of the organization of Finnish youth centres (Suomen Nuorisokeskukset ry). When you use the services provided by our hostel, you simultaneously contribute to child and youth work.
