SHERIDAN, WYOMING – May 27, 2025 – A fresh wave of sustainable sophistication is redefining hospitality in Finland with the opening of Solo Sokos Hotel Pier 4 in Helsinki. This seafront escape combines luxury, nature, and wellness into a harmonious guest experience that speaks directly to today’s eco-conscious and wellness-savvy traveler.
Wellness and Sustainability Woven into Every Detail
Located in a stunning wooden building right on Helsinki’s vibrant waterfront, Solo Sokos Hotel Pier 4 embodies sustainable luxury from the ground up. The hotel is not just a place to stay — it’s a place to connect, recharge, and feel well, all while knowing your visit supports a greener future.
From its carbon-sink wooden architecture to operations powered entirely by renewable energy, the hotel aims to become “Finland’s most climate-responsible hotel.” Designed by Anttinen Oiva Architects with interiors by Franz Design, every space — from the lobby to the sauna — radiates natural warmth and mindful elegance.
A Next-Level Wellness Partnership with Technogym
To turn its vision of holistic wellness into reality, Solo Sokos Hotel Pier 4 partnered with Technogym — a brand known for its seamless fusion of technology, design, and sustainability.
“We were impressed by Technogym’s commitment to sustainability and their overall philosophy. Their leadership has a clear vision that mirrors our own. We are highly selective about our partners — only those who can help carry forward our story and identity are chosen,” says Petra Wikström, General Manager at Solo Sokos Hotel Pier 4.
This collaboration resulted in a wellness space that’s far more than a fitness room. From elegant equipment to an intuitive digital experience, Technogym helped create a space that elevates the hotel’s wellness-forward ethos and integrates smoothly with its tranquil, design-led environment.
A Wellness Experience Inspired by Nature
Located at street level and filled with natural light, the hotel’s wellness space is designed to help guests feel grounded, balanced, and restored — whether they're on a business trip or a leisure getaway.
The space features three thoughtfully curated zones:
- Recovery Zone: A multi-sensory space promoting mental and physical relaxation
- Functional Training Area: Encourages movement, play, and creativity
- Strength & Cardio Zone: Outfitted with Technogym’s high-end equipment like Skillrow and Excite Run for optimal performance
“This isn’t a traditional gym. We wanted to create an environment where guests can recharge both body and mind. Tranquillity is an essential part of the hotel’s overall concept,” explains Wikström.
Wellness That Guests Truly Appreciate
The response from guests has been overwhelmingly positive. Whether they’re staying for business or a weekend retreat, visitors value the hotel’s wellness offerings as a key part of the experience.
“Our guest satisfaction levels are consistently high. We receive particularly positive feedback about the space's clarity and calming atmosphere — and the fact that it's clearly part of the hotel’s wellness-forward concept.”
By aligning with Technogym’s values and creating a nature-inspired space where guests can thrive, Solo Sokos Hotel Pier 4 is setting a new benchmark for what sustainable, modern hospitality can look like.
“Together, we’ve created a wellness environment that reflects quality, responsibility, and holistic wellbeing,” says Wikström — a message that resonates deeply with today’s conscious traveler.
