The Swissotel is like a labyrinth with up-to-date facilities and a wonderful in-room restaurant. However, the room should have been non-smoking but smelled heavily of smoke. The service was efficient but lacked warmth. The location is fantastic for exploring Old Town, centrally located with easy access to everything. The dining experience was excellent despite some organizational issues. Overall, a mixed experience with great facilities and some room for improvement.

Staying at the hotel felt like being in a wonderful old house, with clean twin rooms overlooking the courtyard of the restaurant. The service, although friendly and nice, was also somewhat impassive at times. The location was tremendously convenient right inside the Viru Gate, making it easy to explore both the historic and new areas of Tallinn. The dining experience was generous but lacked some fresh bread. Overall, a cozy stay with some minor room for improvement.

The hotel had rustic and quirky rooms, comfortable, clean, warm, and interesting, with small bathrooms that lacked single items for perfection. The service was super friendly and accommodating, with the lovely staff willing to make specialty coffees. The location was superb, right in the center of the old town, offering easy access to all the main attractions. The dining experience was satisfactory but not sumptuous, with the highlight being the delicious food and bakery items. The hotel lacked a few facilities but overall provided a cozy stay.
