Conveniently situated in the city centre, you are 0.5 km from the medieval Old Town and the main business and entertainment area.
Tallinn is one of the best retained medieval European towns, with its web of winding cobblestone streets and preserved properties from the 11th to 15th centuries. All the most important state and church buildings from the Middle Ages have been preserved in their basic original form, as well as many citizens’ and merchants’ residences, along with barns and warehouses from the medieval period.
