Your itinerary

For a school trip including Suomenlinna, allow for boarding and regrouping time and keep the day’s walking realistic. In colder weather, ask about indoor gathering space and drying outdoor clothing. Business groups should state the exhibition or meeting address in the request.
Clarify bathroom arrangements and whether breakfast can serve the whole group at the needed time. If a sauna or other shared facility matters to the stay, ask whether group access is available, at what times and on what terms.
