Sokos Hotel Torni is the city's first skyscraper (built in 1931), and at 14 stories it is still the tallest building in Helsinki. Recent renovations of its 152 small rooms pay tribute to the building's three phases of life: Art Nouveau (handsome tile bathrooms with shiny chrome and green marble), Art Deco (with nubby gray wallpaper enlivened by yellow bedcovers and lampshades) and 21st century (bathrooms with glass walls that let you peer through the bedroom to faraway inlets and rolling hills). Ateljee, the industrial-aura top-floor bar, is worth a stop on its own.
