2ndhomes Design Apartment in Kamppi Overview

First Impressions

Walking into 2ndhomes Design Apartment in Kamppi, you immediately get that “I could actually live here” feeling. This four-star property sits right on Hietalahdenkatu, and honestly, the location alone makes it worth considering. The building has that sleek Scandinavian aesthetic you’d expect in Helsinki — clean lines, lots of natural light, and none of that sterile hotel vibe that makes you feel like you’re staying in a corporate conference center.

The Kamppi Advantage

You know what’s brilliant about staying here? Kamppi is basically Helsinki’s sweet spot for getting around. I mean, you’re walking distance from the main shopping district, but you’re also close enough to the harbor that you can catch ferries to the islands without any hassle. The apartment style means you get more space than a typical hotel room, which actually matters when you’re trying to spread out after a day of exploring. Plus, couples seem to really get this location — they’ve rated it 8.1, and I can see why.

Living Like a Local

What sets this place apart is the design element they’ve clearly put thought into. The interiors feel distinctly Finnish but not in that over-the-top way some places try too hard to achieve. You’ll find a proper kitchen setup, which is honestly a game-changer when you want to grab fresh ingredients from the nearby market halls and cook something simple. The space feels more like borrowing a stylish friend’s place than checking into accommodation, if that makes sense. The attention to detail throughout creates an inviting atmosphere.

Neighborhood Gems

The Kamppi area has this interesting mix going on — you’ve got the modern shopping center literally around the corner, but then you can walk to Hietaniemi Beach in about ten minutes. I actually discovered some great little cafes just by wandering the nearby streets, and there’s this sense that you’re staying where actual Helsinki residents live and work. The transport connections are solid too, with both metro and tram stops close by, so you’re never really stuck anywhere. This neighborhood truly offers something special for visitors.

Why Guests Love It

Recent guests have been rating the location at 8.0, and after spending time in the area, that tracks perfectly. It’s one of those spots where you can walk to dinner, grab groceries, or head out for nightlife without needing to plan your route like a military operation. The apartment setup means you’re not dealing with tiny hotel bathrooms or trying to live out of a suitcase for your entire stay. Sure, the 7.9 overall rating suggests it’s not perfect — maybe the building shows its age in some spots — but for the price point and location, it delivers exactly what you’d want from a well-designed Helsinki base. This property represents excellent value for discerning travelers.

Apartments in Helsinki suit long stays with heated floors, cozy reading nooks, and balconies overlooking leafy boulevards.
