The hotel is very well located in the old city of Tallinn, but this is the only advantage. This is definitely not a 4star hotel. At the check in we were asked to give the number of out credit card for guarantee of extra costs!! I do not give my card's number to anyone to store it. (finally i left... more

The hotel is in the old part of Tallinn and is well-placed for sight-seeing around the medieval city. The hotel was very comfortable and breakfast was more than adequate. The staff were friendly and printed off train times and other tourist information for us. All in all, a pleasant stay. It wasn't anything to write home about, but that was... more

Stayed Sept 2008 for 2 nights. Very pleasant, quiet and with a nice view from our room over the old town. Great location. Agree with all the positives below and found the room size fine for our needs (how much space is needed for a few nights anyway?). Breakfast good, service and cleanliness excellent. Asking for the laptop for internet... more

We stayed here for three nights in a double room from Sunday 14 to Wednesday 17 September 2008. The location is fantastic as it is a 2 minute walk to the main square and there are plenty of facilities nearby. We travelled by taxi to and from the airport so unable to comment on how to get there by public... more

The Vana Wiru is in an excellent location to explore the wonderful medieval disney land that is Tallinn. The hotel itself serves a purpose, its clean, warm and the staff are friendly.

The room was a bit small and in the back corner facing another building right across the way. We tried to book a sauna but were told they were not allowed to be used at... more

Stayed four nights at the hotel in early April with a friend. We found the hotel to be centrally located to walk the city. The hotel is just minutes to the pubs, restaurants and shops. First-class accommodation (considering we were visiting a former Cold War outpost). The front desk staff were multilingual and helped us with a wide range of... more

after arriving in Tallinn on an extremely frightening landing because of heavy snow around 2am, all we wanted to do was get to the hotel and chill out. we booked a taxi to the old town and he was unable to drive into it. the hotel was yards from the old town gates but we were directed the wrong way... more

We stayed in the Vana Wiru for two nights. Great location near the Wiru gate. We booked a junior suite with sauna as this was the same price as a standard double when we booked. The room was on the fifth floor in the eaves of the roof. The low ceilings sounded like a charming feature initially but aren't so... more
