“Great value hotel in good location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2012

Stayed here for 5 days in October 2011. A little apprehensive as it was so cheap though the reviews on here were fine.

Have to say the hotel was excellent value for money ( around £15 per night for a family room incl breakfast). Room was spacious and very clean with a flat screen tv with limited English channels. Breakfast is a little limited but at this price you cannot complain. The hotel is across the road from Kadriorg Park and the venue for the annual song festival. A short walk across the park is the sea.

This hotel isn't central. It's around a 40 minute walk into the old town but it's on the main road into the centre and buses are frequent. We bought tickets that cost 7 euros each for 5 days unlimited travel that also includes trams and trolley buses.

Don't pay for the minibus shuttle service from the airport. It costs 5 euros 1 way per person which seemed ok but the airport is very close to Tallinn and a taxi ride back there only cost 8 euro's.

Tallinn old town is a beautiful medieval centre, very compact with great views and photo opportunities. There are plenty of places to eat to suit every budget. My personal favourite was Hell Hunt pub which brewed it's own fantastic beer and is well worth a visit. Also try the free Tallinn tour which is great, the KGB tour at the Sokos hotel and the open air museum which takes you away from the centre.

Overall Tallinn is a fantastic destination for a city break and well worth trying. I will return to Tallinn and this hotel.

“Great deal for those who need it”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

I gave this hotel a rating of 4, though I think 3.5 would've been more appropriate.

I and my wife got a room for a excellent deal of 28€, and I heartily recommend going here if you need a cheap room with breakfast and you don't care that much about the location (ie. you have a car). If you'd have to pay more I'd go with Go Hotel Schnelli, since the location is much better and the sound isolation is better. My wife couldn't sleep all that well, while our neighbors kept talking and laughing until 3am. Laughter and normal loudish conversations shouldn't be heard through the walls. Also, the staff did not do anything to quiet down the conversation even though we asked them to twice.

+ price almost unbeatable anywhere in Europe
+ breakfast had good options and good coffee :)
+ pleasing decor

- very thin walls
- location is a bit too far from the city center if you don't have a car

“Value for your money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2011

It is a real good value for money if you managed to get your room for price no more than 50 eur (in other cases it is possible to find better variant in Tallinn). Rooms and food are OK for 3 star hotel.

Room Tip: There is a noisy road close to the hotel, so keep in mind it.

“cheap but...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 September 2011

The Oru Hotel is cheap (about 40 euros a night), the rooms are clean and quite comfortable, the food is ok, if you really need a cheap hotel in Tallinn then you could probably do worse.

BUT the rooms are tiny hardly bigger than the double bed and it is a long way out of town (about an hours walk). Squeeze some more money out of accounts, just pay a bit more and stay somewhere better and closer to town. It will be worth it!

Room Tip: find another hotel?
