Story

It’s Time to Write a New Chapter in the History of Helsinki Hotels

Hotel St. George to open first weeks of 2018.

Just over one year ago, Kämp Collection Hotels unveiled its tenth hotel venture. Now, following a meticulous restoration, Hotel St. George will open its doors during the first weeks of 2018 at Yrjönkatu 13, directly across from the beautiful Old Church Park in the heart of Helsinki.

While the oldest sections of Hotel St. George date back to the 1840s, the most iconic – designed by architect Onni Tarjanne – was completed in 1890. Tarjanne is best known for designing the Finnish National Theatre in 1902. Throughout the years, the building at Yrjönkatu 13 has hosted the Finnish Literature Society, the printing house for the first Finnish newspaper, Suometar, and the Helsinki Finnish Club, among others. Stories from its past have played a crucial role in the interior design of the hotel. When the hotel is completed, such stories will also serve as inspiration for the themes of future events.
