This hotel in Old Town Tallinn is interesting, to say the least. It's in a very old building which has narrow corridors and steps here and there that took us up and down on our way to our room. We found the accommodations basic but clean. We didn't use the TV or the internet, so I can't speak to that.... More

I stayed at the Viru Inn in May 2011 and wanted to make sure I provided a recommendation for the place as it was through other's trip advisor recommendations that I found it in the first place. The place definitely isn't a high end hotel and as I was traveling on a budget, those were out of the question. However,... More

My wife and I have always stayed in large modern hotels,you know what you will get and you are rarely dissappointed however you could just as well be in Chicago or Cordoba.This time we took a chance on a stay in a medieval building and we were not sorry.Our room was number 12 reached by following several narrow corridors,going up...

To be fair, there are some good qualities in this hotel: location and breakfast are very good. On the other hand, it apparently has a new management and all little details, that make a boutique hotel (or a decent hotel) are missing. We stayed at Viru Inn for two nights in November and we had booked "the most spacious and... More

+ The staff (apparently a family) is cheerful and friendly, something that cannot be taken for granted in an ultra-stoic Finnic land like Estonia. - Breakfast is okay, but disappointing against comparatively-priced hotels in the area. - The vaunted "Satellite TV" amounts to three channels cycling over and over from 1 to 99: EuroSport in German, YLE 1 in Finnish...

All the reviews are spot on, in my opinion. Yes, there are stairs and corridors which won't win any points from dicky knees or wonky hips, but think of what you get! Staying in a fabulous location, in an ancient building with buckets of character and charm, a laid-back atmosphere, a most delicious typical Estonian breakfast, and all for very... More

We only stayed in the hotel one night but if was perfect for us. The location is great - right in the old town - and the service is very friendly and helpful.Internet was free, which was also a plus. The room was slightly on the small side but at least it had a bit of character to it -... More

I read some great reviews of the Viru Inn and came with very high expectations. For the most part they were met. The staff were helpful, the location was fantastic, the rooms were clean, the breakfast was tasty and the hotel itself had a certain charm. I tend to agree with another reviewer in that the management should make a... More

Stayed here for 2 nights in August 2011 and paid about 68 euros per night, the hotel location is great so close to the Old Town Square, you won't be able to get a taxi or public transport to the door as it is for pedestrians only, so you will have to walk about 5 minutes. We stayed in room... More
