Pulling a suitcase across the cobblestones was annoying, so advance warning would have been nice. Being on the top floor with said suitcases was also challenging. I loved that this was an old house but i could not get any other information annoy it - like an original floor plan. I loved Tallinn.

The hotel is in the town centre near shops and restaurants. The reception staff are very lovely and attentive. The only downside has been the bathtub which did not have any curtains and therefore it was inevitable to splash water all around the bathroom which made the floor hazardous.

I think my favorite part about this hotel is how 'Bed and Breakfast' it feels, while still having all the luxury of a high end hotel. The room was spacious and had everything you need, so you could hide out if you wanted, however, head into the reception area, amd there youll find social areas, games, a cafe and bar, as well as a wonderful underground breakfast all staffed by really friendly and sweet staff.

The location is superb in the middle of Tallinn old town and a few step away from the Christmas market. Even though the Christmas market is not so good. The room needs renovation and the carpet feel old and stuffy. Also the bathroom is dark, and the floor is flooded when showering.

Nice hotel, great location

First, be aware that there is no elevator, and there's about 50 steps to the 3rd floor rooms. Other than that, a modest hotel in a great, quiet location in Tallinn's Old Town. Easy walking to restaurants and sights. One nice thing: they'll cook eggs to order for breakfast, which I enjoyed a lot.

This was a really nice stay! Great location, the staff were very friendly and helpful with everything! Bed was clean and comfortable, roomy suite, and the sauna was lovely! Only downside was there was not a shower, the attachment in the bathtub required you to be sitting down, which turned out slightly inconvenient for us.

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.
