One of Europe's best-preserved medieval old towns — a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We've hand-picked the best hotels in Tallinn within easy reach, so you can explore the area without the commute.
Tucked inside a 15th-century merchant townhouse on Pühavaimu Street, Schlössle is Tallinn's most romantic small hotel — 23 rooms dressed in rich fabrics, four-poster beds, and open fireplaces that transform winter stays into fairy tales. The vaulted stone breakfast room, antique furnishings, and impeccably discreet service have earned it a devoted following among guests who prefer history to hype.
A sleek city-centre boutique that punches well above its price point, My City Hotel delivers clean Nordic design, efficient service, and a superb breakfast spread a five-minute walk from the Old Town gates. Rooms are not large, but smartly configured; corner rooms on upper floors catch the city skyline beautifully.
Part of the Tallink group, this well-run city hotel near the ferry terminal offers reliable four-star standards and a rooftop terrace with sweeping views across Tallinn's old and new districts. It's a smart choice for those arriving by ferry from Helsinki or Stockholm, combining ease of access with genuine comfort.
One of Tallinn's great old-town stalwarts, the Savoy occupies a handsome limestone building within the medieval walls, offering gracious rooms with views across the Old Town roofscape and a warm, old-world hospitality that feels increasingly rare. The wood-panelled lounge bar is a destination in itself on cold Baltic evenings.
Set in the peaceful Kadriorg district near the palace park, L'Ermitage is Tallinn's most serenely positioned luxury hotel — a sophisticated retreat from Old Town crowds. The contemporary art collection, locally sourced restaurant, and attentive personal service attract discerning travellers who want the real Tallinn, not just the tourist version.
