Hotel information

The hotel building was constructed at the end of 19th century. Peter Schreiberg, from St. Petersburg, designed the original 4 storey house, the top two floors being added later.

After the Republic of Estonia was established in 1918, the building was used as a telegraph station. It retained this function in the Soviet period, housing the 'Tallinn Central Telegraph'. During restoration in 2005-2006, the wing of the building that was destroyed during World War Two was rebuilt.

The hotel has a meeting room, complete with fireplace, which can host events for up to 50 people.

A wealth of beauty treatments, including facials and hand therapy, are available at the hotel (charges apply).

The hotel's indoor pool (3 x 10m) and jacuzzi are open 7 days a week (07:00 until 22:00). The sauna and steam bath are also open Monday to Sunday (07:00 - 10:00 and 17:00 - 22:00).

Food & beverage

During your time at the hotel you can spoil yourself with an à la carte dinner in the restaurant (12:00-22:30), or lock yourself away in your sizeable room and enjoy something from the hotel's room service menu, available 24-hours a day.

The hotel's Lobby-Bar, open until late, is an ideal venue for a pre-dinner cocktail or a nightcap. The bar also offers a wide selection of wines from the New and Old World.

Room information

All hotel rooms are equipped with modern facilities.

Area information

St Catherine's Passage (50m) - in this quaint medieval alley you can watch artists and craftsmen plying their trades.

Town Hall Square (70m) - here, in front of the charming medieval town hall, traditions from the Middle Ages are kept alive; parades, a knights’ tournament and a parrotshooting contest take place in this popular square.

Toompea Castle (600m) - this castle, situated on a steep limestone hill, was built in the 13th and 14th centuries.

The staff were courteous, attentive and considerate. They helped with our requests for an iron, an electrical adaptor, got us reservations at one of the finest nightclubs in town and of course, helped out with helpful tips on sightseeing etc. Attentive to a fault- they immediately offered to take our luggage off our hands. The breakfast spread was nice, the music soothing and the spa excellent.

The lobby bar is atrociously expensive, and I come from London...

Excellent location. Beautiful hotel, well done in an interesting and pretty old Tallinn building. Lovely interior decoration. Wonderful restaurant with outstanding breakfast (especially the scrambled eggs!)

Slow bar service (lobby bar), but a lovely place to sit and relax while waiting anyway.

Everything. Staff were helpful. Rooms were lovely. breakfast was yum. Spa was really relaxing. We arrived very early & the porter allowed us to check in early, which made our stay much easier. we were also allowed a late check out. Hotel is in the middle of the old town. The hotel itself is beautiful, very funky, but quite small which is nice. Cant say anything negative to be honest.

Perfect location & excellent service quality, the spa was very nice

Didn't like the wine at the restaurant, although i've tasted it before,
and liked it very much – was there something else in the bottle?

Smiling service all around. Luxurious and tastefully decorated room with great amenities (bathrobes, toiletries etc.). Spa was beautiful: high-quality and relaxing - especially as we were the only guests in there it was really something else compared to crowded competitors. Excellent in-room breakfast crowned our romantic weekend - we wanted to go right back!

Pillows are not up to standard. Couldn't get AC to heat like we wanted.
