excellent location and friendly helpful staff. Breakfast was excellent lots of choice. Rooms clean but very stark but bathroom in need of renovation. Our sink had brown marks but the worst problem was the awful smell of drains as soon as you open the bathroom door. Absolutely dreadful. No tea making facilities so bring your kettle!

Estonians don't seem to like the English and were quite unfriendly and offhand especially the restaurants we went to.

Wow!

We didn't really know what to expect, but we were very happy with our stay at the Reval Central. The location is superb - only a few minutes walk from the Old Town and less than 10 minutes walk from a huge supermarket. The staff was very friendly, very helpful and the front desk staff all spoke English.

I have to echo things that others have said: the breakfast IS superb, with a huge choice. They have a kids play section with toys and crayons so we could eat while the kids played (though there was too much playing and not enough eating!)

The rooms ARE a bit spartan, but quite comfortable. We booked a triple room with a baby cot and it was pretty large. If you can't get a family room, you could comfortably sleep two adults and two kids in a triple with an extra bed.

There are other nice touches -- there's a free internet terminal in the lobby, the hotel bar is a nice place to sit and have a drink, the entire hotel is very kid-friendly. It's a 15 minute walk (though not well signposted) to the ferry terminal, which will take you to Helsinki among other places.

The staff, the location and the value for money at the Reval Central can't be beat. Highly recommended!

Stayed at the Reval Central while attending a seminar in Tallin. The hotel is really close to the Old Town and thus has an excellent location in downtown Tallin. The biggest letdown overall is the room itself which is pretty spartan to be honest. If you're expecting anything more than 2-3*, think again. However, the breakfast (which is free) is quite filling and the front staff was quite helpful and friendly. The high speed internet (also free) was also quite speedy. Overall, a very nice stay. With some minor upgrades to the room and the heating/and A/C this hotel could be VERY nice. But you get your money's worth considering the price and location.

Near the port/docks/ferry which has a few pubs/cafes and restaurants.
5 mins to the old town
Hotel is clean, we got very good rates.
Perfectly acceptable place to stay for a few nights whilst inTallinn
