Helsinki


Finnish students live well, so take advantage of this summer residence: a clean, busy, environmentally sound spot with neat rooms, a sauna and draft sketches by Tove Jansson on the walls. Its 326 modern en-suite rooms come with kitchenettes and Finnish textiles. Dorms sleep up to three, continental breakfast costs just €6.50 and HI members get a 10% discount.

A self-service laundrette and bike storage are available, and carbon offsets and recycling make Both an environmentally-friendly choice.
