I stayed at hotel Starest a few weeks ago. I think that the location isnt so bad. Its private, away from the city noise and I liked it. Rooms were simple, not fancy but good. Price is also very good. I recommend it to people who dosent want something fancy and just want to relax and rest.

Horrible location. The room was dirty and and small. A lot of noise. It looked more like a cheap place to. go with a girl from streets than hotel. Do not recommend it to anyone. The only good thing is the cheap price but its not worth it.

The hotel is very simple - just a place to stay overnight night. The room and the bathroom were clean. The food is very simple, although we never left hungry. There was good wi-fi connection in the room. The personnel was always very kind and helpful. It is located near the outskirts of the town, but since Tartu is not... More

I recently had to stay in this hotel for one night and I must say - it's very decent for the price you're paying. I've been in hotels twice the price and they've been awful. I think it'd be especially great for people who are traveling around and who aren't looking for luxuries, but just a nice place to sleep... More

It all started when we arrived at the hostel. The administrator seemed to be completely uninterested in us. We checked in and went to our room, only to find that there were ants in several places in our room, in addition to the view from the window being upon (and I'm not kidding) a wall. So back to the reception... More

It reminds me more of a dormitory of a boarding school, rather than a hotel. Don't get me wrong - i stayed in two bed room with no extra fluff (e.g. sauna, jacuzzi etc). It get's the job done, if you need to stay there for a single night, but anything else than a simple stop-over is a bit too... More

We drove to that hotel at 3 AM due to the big problems with Russia-Estonia border crossing. We were very tired, and to our happiness, the staff was not sleeping at that time and gave us keys for rooms. The staying should be payed upon arrival not at the departure The shower is very simple but sufficient. The rooms are... More

I was headed to Tartu for a business meeting, and was intrigued by the review for Starest from the guest who had a sauna in his room. I absolutely had to try it, and was lucky enough that one of the two sauna rooms was available. The rate was good, much lower than what I would have paid for a... More

I had some business in Tartu and stayed here for one night in April 2006. The hotel is a bus ride or taxi away from the centre - don't try walking it. It is set in an area of Soviet-style apartment blocks and is not that easy to find. My room was very large and included its own large sauna,... More
