The Szczecin Philharmonic is the main reason why Szczecin appeared under my radar. The building is so magnificent and beautiful that it won numerous architectural awards when it was open to the public, back in 2014. One of these awards was the Architectural Design of the Year at Eurobuild Awards 2014.

What can we say about our stay at Scandic Passi in Helsinki? First, we have to say that it was one of the best hotels we have ever been. If you are asking yourself why, let us tell you our reasons. So, the hotel is beautifully designed to remember the area’s history. All the walls in the hotel are decorated with a circus theme that may sound a little creepy but works perfectly. From the reception area to the number of the rooms, everything looks so cool that you might feel like you want to copy it in your house later.

We have been to Helsinki more than a few times in the past couple of years. Every time that we are there, we try to stay in different hotels so we can explore a little bit more of this amazing city. This was our goal when we booked our stay at Scandic Passi, an amazing hotel located in an area of Helsinki called Siltasaari.
