Uusi Sauna in Jätkäsaari is a modern take on the classic Finnish neighbourhood sauna, recommended by Visit Finland. Run by Kimmo Helistö, known as the godfather of the sauna boom in Helsinki, this public sauna and terrace, bar, and bistro offers a unique experience. The dark-toned interior reflects old sauna culture while embracing the modern urban neighborhood. Guests can enjoy dinner until 23:30, watch a hockey match, and even order from a vending machine. While some find the prices high and the staff inattentive, others praise the relaxing sauna experience and recommend pairing it with a visit to a nearby pizza place. Overall, Uusi Sauna offers a polished and modern approach to the traditional Finnish sauna experience, making it a hidden local gem in Helsinki.
