MELLUNMAKI Renovated 3 bedroom apt next to metro Overview

First Impressions

The MELLUNMAKI Renovated 3 bedroom apt next to metro sits in one of Helsinki’s quieter residential neighborhoods, and honestly, that’s exactly what makes it special. When I first walked up Sallatunturintie, I was struck by how peaceful everything felt — you know, that rare combination of being close to everything but still feeling like you can actually breathe. This four-star property doesn’t try to be flashy, but the recent renovation shows in every detail, from the fresh paint to the thoughtfully updated fixtures.

The Space Itself

Step inside and you’ll immediately notice how much thought went into maximizing the space. The three-bedroom layout actually works — I mean, you’re not bumping into each other trying to get to the kitchen, and there’s genuine storage space (something you definitely appreciate after a few days of living out of suitcases). Each room has its own character, but they flow together nicely. The renovation kept the Scandinavian sensibility intact while adding modern touches that actually make sense for travelers.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s what I love about Mellunmäki — the metro connection changes everything. You’re literally next to the station, which means central Helsinki is about 20 minutes away, but you get to come home to this calm residential area where locals are walking their dogs and kids are playing in nearby parks. It’s the kind of neighborhood where you’ll find a proper grocery store and a few local cafes, not tourist traps. Couples seem to really get this balance — recent guests have been rating it highly for romantic getaways, and I can see why.

Why This Setup Works

The three-bedroom configuration might seem like overkill for a couple, but trust me, having that extra space transforms the experience. You can spread out, set up a little workspace if needed, or just enjoy having a proper living area that doesn’t feel cramped. The apartment setup means you can grab groceries and cook breakfast without hunting for a restaurant every morning — though honestly, exploring Helsinki’s food scene is half the fun. There’s also parking available, which anyone who’s tried to navigate European city centers with a car will appreciate.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps coming up in conversations with other travelers is how this place nails that “living like a local” feeling without sacrificing comfort. The 9.1 rating reflects something you can feel immediately — everything just works the way it should. Recent guests consistently mention the location as a highlight, and after spending time here, I get it. You’re close enough to dive into Helsinki’s museums, markets, and nightlife, but far enough out that you return to genuine quiet each evening. It’s that sweet spot where you feel like you’re experiencing real Helsinki, not just the tourist version of it.

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