Hotel Kämp is the grande dame of Helsinki, a storied hotel opened in 1887 on the elegant Esplanade boulevard in the very heart of the Finnish capital. For well over a century it has been the meeting place of Finland's artists, composers and statesmen, from Sibelius to the founders of the nation, its gilded halls woven into the country's history.

The dining honours that heritage. À La Kämp reimagines Finnish classics through French techniques, drawing on authentic dishes from century-old Kämp menus for haute cuisine with a Finnish soul; and the timeless Kämp Bar remains the city's premier social hub.

For a grand, historic Helsinki stay, Hotel Kämp is a benchmark.
