Helsinki airport suggestions, please

Hello! We have an 8 hour layover in Helsinki and are thinking of splurging on paying for our family of four to have time in a lounge but I am full of questions.
1. Can we go to any lounge whether it is “Schengen” or “Non-Schengen”?
2. Which lounge is best for good snd rest?
3. Any areas of the airport more relaxing than others? Thank you!

Unless it's an overnight layover, with eight hours I'd consider taking the train into the center of town and spend a few hours exploring. It's a pleasant town, easy to walk from the center where the train drops you to harbor area. I had a layover in Helsinki a few years ago but was coming from the ferry in the morning and had an evening flight out. I had only small bags but left them in a locker at the train station. It worked out great.
