Waldorf Astoria set to make its entrance into the Nordics with a hotel in Helsinki

Hilton signed a management agreement with M&L Group for The Hotel Maria, which will be re-branded as Waldorf Astoria Helsinki. This marks the first hotel to operate under the Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts brand in the Nordics.

Located in the historic Kruununhaka district in a building designed in 1885 by architect Lagerspetz, the 116-room property will be rebranded later this year as Waldorf Astoria Helsinki. This will follow a short transitional period during which the hotel will remain operational.  

The luxury hotel will feature signature dining, a bar, fitness studio and a Nordic wellness spa with a traditional Finnish sauna, blending timeless elegance, unforgettable experiences and culinary mastery for guests throughout their stay. 

Spanning five continents, Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts is Hilton’s luxury brand of iconic hotels in the most sought-out destinations around the world. Waldorf Astoria Helsinki joins the brand’s global portfolio of 67 hotels trading and pipeline.
