Hotel wise - nothing justifies the price point - the rooms, parking, breakfast, coffee - you can find all of these things at much higher quality for much cheaper in Tartu. The room was fine, the parking was overpriced and even while asking 170 euros per night for a very basic and a bit old by now superior room - the parking isn't even included. Breakfast was underwhelming and coffee was undrinkable. The best thing about this stay was the restaurant which was absolutely amazing, starting from the food ending with the service which was very very high quality! But you can visit the restaurant even when not staying in the hotel..

Very cozy and luxury hotel, nice self-service lounge, very nice and spacious room, nice spa area. Breakfast with a large selection and very tasty, prosecco is also served. Good location in the old town. The only downside was the church bells in the old town that started ringing at 8 o'clock on Sunday morning. And the room could have been darkened better, the curtains in the room were effective, but there were no coverings on the windows in the hallway and the toilet, and the daylight made the hotel room too bright, it disturbed sleep (probably a problem only in summer).

Nice location, friendly staff and a very nice atmosfære. I came to the hotel late, and the staff was helpfull with parking. There is parking-facilities at the hotel, but you can park at the street to. The breakfast is very good, and the restaurant have a very modern and æstetic look. Verything is clean and beautiful.
