Well it's hard to review a hotel when they sell your room to someone off the street, that you have already reserved and paid for! We arrived at 8:00pm to be told that check-in time closes at 6pm! Well no one informed us of this and apparently, they 'didn't have a phone' that day to see if we were coming (even though the man at the desk clearly made a phone call at 8pm in front of me!)
So we can't actually rate the room or hotel itself, just it's appalling managerial policies. Oh and no refund either...

Where do you start?

We arrived to find no-one on reception. We went to the 'sister' hotel, the Victoria, and they told us to go back - someone turned up with a laptop and gave us a key.

Room was a bit crummy. The window frames were rotting and the windows held shut (up?) by hook and eye catches, didn't seem that secure! The TV was covered in dust and only had 3 channels. The cupboards didn't close properly. Very narrow twin beds, very cheap like you'd have in an old caravan.

Also, you have to take breakfast in the Victoria - and the plush restaurant there just makes you feel worse about how bad your room is.

Location not bad but not great - a fair trek to the beach for example.

We stayed at the same room as another person has commented here, a bit cheeper room with the toilet and shower across the corridor. I found Hotel Bristol on internet, becase it seemed to be the cheepest and most central hotel in Pärnu. When we should leave the hotel for the beach, we saw the sign "Saun" (sanua) an a door, and got curios. Surprisingly enough, our room key worked there, and also on the door to the kitchen. More surprisingly, our room key also worked to other hotel room, both at the same floor and at another floor! Because ot this, our plans changed rapidly, and we checked out at once. The receptionist only comment was that "It is okey", when we checked out

And parking is not included, costs 50 EEK (3 euro) per day.
And the room was not very clean. I found some hair in the bed linen, before i layed down! The carpet on the floor was very dirty. You could order breakfast, for 150 EEK (!0 euro) per person. Instead we walked 30 meters to Cafe Georg, and had a probably much better breakfast for 5 euro for two persons.


I liked best: It is central situated. I had a good sleep the first (and only) night. Pärnu is a nice sommer town, with a lot of festivals and classical conserts, and beautiful beaches and swimming facilities.

I didn't like so much: The room key can be used in all hotel rooms! Don't go here if you don't want to loose your belongings. I doubt they even have a safety box.. Pärnu has many better accomodation facilities..

Stayed here for one night, one room left on arrival that we were told smelt funny. To be honest it smelt ok, it looked like the room had been renovated recently, but the carpet was filthy and the bathroom was across the hall. If you take breakfast it is in the sister hotel Victoria a few minutes walk away.
The only positive thing was it was cheap at €40 and the location was good.
