Why Choose Corporate Short Term Accommodation in Helsinki?

Making a successful business trip to Helsinki can only be complete once the right accommodation is booked. Often hotels and B&Bs can be underwhelming, thus causing the overall experience to be lacklustre too.

Serviced apartments in Helsinki, however, are different. Guests in this style of corporate Helsinki rentals can expect stays to be fulfilling, where they have access to everything they need. Key facilities in both our long and short term accommodation in Helsinki include fully equipped kitchens, on-site washing facilities, spacious dining and living rooms, homely bedrooms and free Wi-Fi.

Situ’s Helsinki furnished apartments are designed to make guests feel like they are staying in their very own ‘home-away-from-home’, where they can also live and work self-sufficiently and independently. We hand-pick the Helsinki apartments and furnished rentals we offer too, judging each property based on its compliance with our high standards and location.

Where is Helsinki?

Helsinki is the capital city of Finland, a Nordic country in northeastern Europe. The city sits on the coastline of southern Finland, covering around 80 square miles, looking out to the Gulf of Finland.

Helsinki has a population of almost 650,000, making it easily the most populated city in the country ahead of the city of Espoo with a population of just 290,000. Espoo is only a half an hour car journey away from the Helsinki city centre, which says much about the population density in the Finnish southern region. Despite being the capital too, people in the highest points in northern Finland have the travel around 950 miles to reach Helsinki.

The Finland National Roads 1, 7, 45 and 51, as well as the E12 and E75 European road routes, enable car travel in and out of Helsinki from any direction. There's also the Port of Helsinki, South Harbour. It is the busiest European passenger port, enabling sea traffic far and wide beyond the Gulf of Finland. Of course, corporates can reach the city via the Helsinki Airport too, the largest international airport in the country, which was also not far outside the centre of Helsinki.

Invest in Helsinki

The response from corporates who work, and thus stay in furnished apartments in Helsinki, is remarkably positive. Such a great business and working environment have meant the city has one of the world’s most talented workforces who enable Helsinki to continue to grow.

Exemplifying the world-class business environment is the city's reputation as a fantastic place for start-ups. Throughout the start of the twenty-first century, Helsinki has continued to be named one of the happiest, safest and family-friendly cities in the world. This has meant the city has often been highly-recognised in 'Global Startup Ecosystem Reports', thus encouraging plenty of new local and foreign investment year on year.

Let’s no forget either that all of this is within the borders of a country that is perfectly positioned to act as a gateway to the Nordic Region. It's access to the Baltic markets is unparalleled and flights to business hubs all over the world are very common. In the past, Finland itself has also been deemed to;

·        Be one of the least corrupt countries globally.

·        Be one of the world's most innovative nations.

·        Have one of the best national business climates.

·        Rank amongst the best for social opportunity and inclusivity i.e gender gap, minority tolerance.

Moving to Helsinki

There's something for everyone to enjoy about Helsinki. Whether it be the beautiful scenery, its iconic attractions, or the welcoming business climate, anyone thinking about moving to Helsinki must know the city has much to offer. One factor to consider is the weather. Despite Finland being considered the home of the 'world's cleanest air',  potential expats in Helsinki should expect to endure very cold conditions. Temperature is known to fall to even below -10 degrees in the winter months, whilst the yearly average temperature rarely surpasses 0 degrees.

However, if the cold climate is not an issue, then visitors can live and work in a city that belongs to one of the safest and happiest countries in the world, according to year-on-year data. Being the capital, central Helsinki is at the heart of this positive national lifestyle, which welcomes expats from all over the world. The capital's healthcare system is superb, the language barrier is not an issue (for English speakers particularly) and the cost of living is similar to the rest of Europe.

This all seems too good to be true, and the likes of the Suomenlinna, the Helsinki Cathedral and the bustling Market Square, along with the many other city attractions are just the cherries on the cake when we talk about what Helsinki is all about.
