Sokos Hotel Helsinki or Scandic Marski???

We are deciding between Sokos Hotel Helsinki or Scandic Marski in Helsinki for 5 nights.

What would be a better choice between these 2 hotels for a family of 4 (2 adults/2 kids)?

Price is not a factor.

We%26#39;re looking for cleanliness, great size room and space.

Thanks much.

Marski is directly opposite the Stockmann department store on Mannerheimintie. Sokos Hotel Helsinki is also centrally located rather near the railway station.

All Finnish hotels are clean, but in general hotel rooms in Europe tend to be smaller than in the USA.

Scandic Marski%26#39;s Superior Plus rooms are 30 sqm, I guess they are as big as a normal hotel room here can get.

Sokos Hotel Helsinki has Junior Suites that are 38 sqm. They have also family rooms (rooms with extra beds) and interconnecting (combi) rooms for families with children.

It%26#39;s more of your personal preference on the location between these hotels. Both belong to well-established hotel chains. Both have a good breakfast, but in my personal opinion Scandic%26#39;s have a bit better breakfast than Sokos Hotels, but there%26#39;s not much difference. Scandics also run an environment friendly policy in their hotel operations and Scandic Marski has an environment label (the Swan: http://www.ecolabel.nu/nordic_eco2/ ).
