sviitti

Sviitti is a hotel accommodation category used in Finland to describe a suite—an arrangement of multiple rooms designed for living, not just sleeping. A sviitti is larger than a standard hotel room and typically includes a separate living area and at least one bedroom, offering more space, privacy, and flexibility for guests. The term corresponds to the English word suite and is commonly used by Finnish hotels to label multi-room units.

Typical configurations include one-bedroom sviitti, two-bedroom sviitti, junior sviitti, executive or luxury sviitti, and presidential sviitti. Layouts vary by property, but most have a living room, one or more bedrooms, and a private bathroom. Many also provide a kitchenette or dining area and sometimes a separate entrance or hallway to enhance privacy.

Amenities in a sviitti often go beyond those of a standard room and may include higher-quality furnishings, larger seating or work spaces, premium bedding, and enhanced in-room technology. Guests staying in a sviitti may receive additional services such as private check-in, access to executive lounges, and concierge assistance, depending on the hotel.

Etymology and usage: The term is borrowed into Finnish from the French suite, meaning a set or sequence of rooms. In Finnish hotel contexts, sviitti is the usual label for such multi-room units, while the corresponding English term is suite.
