The Samla Hotels fund, managed by Samla Capital, will provide the investment required for the hotel. Samla Capital is a Finnish real estate private equity firm. The company was founded in 2015 by Samppa Lajunen, a former top-level athlete with strong passion for investing.
Samla Hotels’ strategy is to invest in hotel properties. The anchor investment is a property of over 14 000 m2 on its own plot in the center of Helsinki. In addition, the property at Mariankatu 23 is of cultural and historical value, and the planning has been done in cooperation with an extensive design team and the Finnish Heritage Agency.
We are building The Hotel Maria to meet the proven criteria of international luxury. The hotel opened its doors to guests on 15th December 2023. Reservations can be made via several channels.
The Samla Hotels fund, managed by Samla Capital, is responsible for the investment required by the hotel and is supervised by the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority.
The investors, who have been part of The Hotel Maria project from early stages, include Trade Union Pro, The Research Foundation of the Pulmonary Diseases and Samla Toimitilat II Ky.
