Hotels

There are two hotels within walking distance of the Life Science Center:

In the city centre, hotels close to the metro line are the most interesting option. This includes the hotels close to the central station.

Some restaurant suggestions for the night

  • On the Aalto University campus close to the CSC building: Ravintola Fat Lizard Otaniemi is a restaurant run by the local Fat Lizard brewery serving mostly pizza and burgers (though they have some other dishes also), with - of course - a selection of their beers.

  • Kaisla: More a bar, but some simple bar dishes if you're not too hungry. Nice beer selection though. And next to a metro station, so easy to reach even if you stay near the CSC premises.

  • Ravintola Juova Hanahuone: The name suggests it is a restaurant, but I haven't seen people eat there a lot. They do have a nice beer selection, including 27 taps.
