A great option if you value a leafy neighbourhood and dead-calm surroundings more than a full-service package and proximity to nightlife. Across the road there are the Song Festival grounds and the Kadriorg park area begins just 100 metres away from the hotel entrance. Facilities include a sauna that can host 15 guests and a conference centre for 70 to 100 people. In addition to the French restaurant, the hotel opened an outdoor grill bar in summer 2005.

This modestly priced and no-frills hotel’s biggest advantage is its location between the Old Town and the Kristiine Keskus consumer mecca. The controversial Soviet Second World War monument, known as the Bronze Soldier, is not far away, as is the National Library. The conference centre can host 40 people. The Estonian countrystyle pub on the ground floor has a cosy terrace which is open in summer. Don’t miss the morning sauna as it’s included in the room price along with breakfast.

Set right between the airport and the country’s largest shopping centre, Hotel Ülemiste is a new and very successful glass, steel and concrete reincarnation of its Soviet predecessor. There’s a view over Lake Ülemiste, the city’s fresh water source, from the restaurant terrace (open in summer) and also from some of the rooms. In addition to a conference room for 80 people, you can also rent a fully equipped office.

The ‘Spa’ class rooms face the sea in this hotel built next to the Olympic yachting centre in Pirita district. Renovated in 2003, Pirita Top Spa is the sportiest of all Tallinn hotels as it has a swimming pool, saunas and spa treatment services. The restaurant’s menu is quite short and mostly European. While absent in the rooms, wi-fi is available in the café downstairs. Saunas and the pool are free for guests.

A new, modest hotel set next to the office building that used to host all the editorial offices of Soviet Estonian newspapers. Wi-fi is only available in the lobby and the bar, but the rooms are shining with new decor and the Old Town is only a 10-minute walk away. You’ll have the chance to see many colourful wedding ceremonies as the wedding registration office is just around the corner.
