Charming hotel near City Hall
Staff was amazing. Went out of their way to be helpful. Room overlooked the courtyard so it was quiet at night. My only complaints are that WiFi didn’t work in our room so we had to go to the lobby to use it, and that our room had 5 stairs between the bathroom and wardrobe area up from the sleeping area . Location was perfect- walked everywhere. Good breakfast. I recommend!

The Merchants House Hotel is a beautiful historic building retaining plenty of its original 14th C features of beamed rooms, stone walls and painted ceilings within a modernised context while retaining its resplendent old-world charm. The staff are all super friendly and go above and beyond expectations. We loved staying here, and when we return to Tallinn, we plan to stay here again. Its location in the centre of the old town, just a minute's walk from the Raekoja Plats, is super convenient for accessing galleries, monuments, places of interest, and shops. Everything is so accessible. We had a wonderful stay. Many thanks to everyone who made it so.

Amazing location in Old Town. Walkable to ALL of the must visit attractions in the city. Lots of food and drink options around. Staff was awesome, always willing to answer questions. The opportunity to use their Sauna really helped relax the tired legs after a long days walk.

My husband and I are both in our 80's and being on the 3rd floor without an elevator wasn't too much of a problem except that the control for the air conditioner was kept at the front desk (they only had one). They didn't seem to think that it would be a problem for us after having walked all day to have to make an extra trip up and down the stairs to borrow the control. The location of the hotel is about as good as you can get in the Old Town.

Certainly! Here's a positive review for Ercant's House: --- I recently had the pleasure of staying at Merchant's House during my visit to Tallinn, and I can't say enough good things about this wonderful establishment. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and genuine friendliness by the staff. Their impeccable service made my stay incredibly comfortable and enjoyable. The rooms were cozy and well-maintained, reflecting the care and attention to detail that Ercant's House is known for. Every morning, I looked forward to the delightful breakfast spread. Location-wise, Merchant's House couldn't be better situated. Nestled in the heart of the old city, it offered convenient access to all the major attractions, restaurants, and shops. Overall, my stay at Merchant's House was exceptional. The combination of excellent service, a friendly and attentive staff, delicious breakfast, and an ideal location makes it the perfect choice for anyone visiting Tallinn. I highly recommend it and look forward to returning on my next trip!

An ideal location in the city centre just off the square. Friendly staff who were very helpful especially considering my lost lugagge--great tips for affordable places to shop outside the tourist areas. Generally clean. I'm sorry I didn't manage to use the sauna!

Jonathan our host was super accommodating, we arrived a little earlier than our check-in time but our room was ready which was great. We were offered a complimentary drink on arrival, had a chat with our host who shared all the best sightseeing destinations for our time in Tallinn. Our room was clean and offered everything we needed for our short stay. Highly recommend - friendly host, perfect location and beautiful city. Thank you Jonathan!
