Pros:

This place is delightful! Great central location- you can see the Christmas market from the entrance as it’s just one block away. Comfortable, clean rooms with heated floors in the bathroom - much appreciated in the winter! The sauna is also just what’s needed after a cold day spent outside. But the breakfast is the real winner here. We had mimosas every morning and be sure to try the sea buckthorn shot which is delicious.

Grand plaisir dans cet hôtel
Pros:

Avec mon épouse nous avons apprécié nos 3 nuits dans ce superbe hôtel. L'emplacement est idéal, nous avons pu voir le marché de NOËL qui était à 100 mètres de l'hôtel. Le centre de TALLINN est très proche. Ville sublime. Le petit déjeuner est extraordinaire. A conseiller... K

Cons:

Tout parfait. Peut-être une chambre un peu "petite" pour un 5☆
