Good but not exceptional
Pros:

Three nights spent here. Excellent location right at the entrance to the Old Town. It’s a 7-minute walk to the central square in Old Town.

Many business guests; the hotel has a dedicated conference area. Very modern facilities, rooms are a good size and very clean. We had a side view of St. Olaf’s Church, nice.

The breakfast area is large and well organized. Even when it’s busy, you can usually still find a table. Good, extensive buffet. Excellent hot drinks.

Air conditioning is available in the room, but in our case (7th floor) it was somewhat unintuitive to use. You could only adjust the temperature up or down, but up or down from what, exactly? In any case, setting it 3°C lower gave us a comfortable sleeping temperature of around 19°C. The information shown on the TV was also not accurate (anymore?), as it displayed a device with temperature settings.

Speaking of the TV, amusingly, the weather shown was from 2022 as the current forecast. Whether it was really that cold in 2022, lol?

The beds, however, were among the best on the entire trip: comfortable, neither too soft nor too firm.

The spa area on the top floor is great, especially the view. However, the opening hours are not ideal. We had really bad weather one day, but on weekdays the area is closed from 12:00 to 5:00 p.m. It’s only open continuously on weekends.

Parking in Tallinn and at the hotel is expensive by Baltic standards: €25 per 24 hours in the secure underground garage. Even the surrounding parking lots and garages are not cheaper. Given the relatively higher room rates, I would have appreciated some concession here.

Overall, compared to other equivalent hotels in the Baltics, the rating is good, but not outstanding.

Great location.
Pros:

A perfectly located hotel for exploring old and modern Tallin. Trams and buses outside the hotel too.
My room was very comfortable with plenty of room to move around. The bed was excellent with a mattress topper adding to the comfort. A lovely bathroom with room to put things down.
The breakfast buffet was of a high standard, with so much choice including an omelette station.
Another plus point were the lifts which were fast and plentiful.

Very good family hotel
Pros:

The family deluxe room was good.
Issue:
- The blackout curtains. The curtains coverage was not sufficient. The room was bright even though the curtains were drawn.
- AC did not work properly. The sun heated the room so much that the air conditioning was not enough to cool the room sufficiently.

Breakfast was very good.
