Quite a unique hotel, not a chain, so very friendly staff. Can’t put a finger on it, but really enjoyed my stay from the moment the receptionist gave me a map of the local area, she was full of enthusiasm and could see her love for the city Location is excellent, we booked the economy room, but ended up in a standard one; which was a nice surprise. Full of charm and character, excellent Elemis toiletries, quiet location (maybe it was the off season). Room wasn’t modern (but that’s not the point of this hotel) but was comfortable, bed was big (little too soft for me). Had a Nespresso machine. Breakfast was excellent, hot items were made to order.

A Memorable Stay at The Merchants House Hotel

From the moment we arrived, our experience at The Merchants House Hotel was nothing short of delightful. We were warmly welcomed by Angela, a lovely and attentive member of staff who set the tone for our stay. She provided us with a detailed map of Tallinn and gave excellent recommendations on what to see and where to go—such a thoughtful and helpful start! Our room was spotless and comfortable, offering a peaceful retreat after exploring the city. Breakfast was a highlight each morning, with a varied menu that catered to different tastes and added a touch of indulgence to our stay. The hotel itself is steeped in history and perfectly located in the heart of Tallinn’s Old Town, making it an ideal base for discovering the charm and character of the city. You truly feel immersed in the culture from the moment you step outside. Overall, we had a fantastic stay. A heartfelt thank you to the entire hotel team for their warmth, courtesy, and genuine hospitality. We’re already looking forward to returning soon!

Hotel is in a great location and the staff are really pleasant and helpfu. The breakfast was delicious. The only reason for 4 stars rather than 5 was the bathroom - no stand up shower, only a roll-top freestanding bath, and when in the bath tub there are no nearby shelves to place toiletries.

It was a great experience staying at Merchants House Hotel - accommodating staff, great location (walkable to restaurants & shops) & with healthy breakfast choices (location of dining area: beautiful cozy basement). Do not forget to take advantage of the sauna located inside the hotel; it was offered to us but we didn’t get the chance.

Hospitable service over-all. The ManagerJonathan's carrying my luggage up the stairs was a nice touch. All 3 shift front desk staff were helpful and very friendly. Rich and satisfying breakfast, unbeatable location. No elevators and a bit too loud a street on weekend nights.

The Merchants House is the perfect location and its history and age adds to the experience of Tallinn Old Town. The breakfast was good with a wide selection. Margarita at reception is delightful. Friendly, helpful and with a wonderful sense of humour she made our week stay for the Song Festival a special one. Next time we hope to bring our daughter :)

As a solo woman traveler, I felt INCREDIBLY safe the entire visit. Angela especially was so nice to connect to, helped provide me with whatever I needed. The location was PRIME, you couldn't have asked for an amazing location midway walk to everything I needed for my 3 nights. Up the block at the top of the hill were 3 exceptional restaurants seconds away which enhanced my stay. I fell asleep right away- I will advise the room I stayed in with the tub publically threw me a curveball but I adjusted quickly and glad I was traveling solo as it may not be to everyones taste. I'd recommend this property highly. I didn't end up doing the breakfast at the hotel as there were many coffee shops nearby and I opted a different route- thank you merchant house for a memorable stay in a historic space !

Renovated old merchants house, my room was clean with view into the hotel courtyard. Fine for coming back to amd sleeping but not ideal if you're stuck inside if raining. Very very conveniently located just off the Main Square. Breakfast very good! All in all, happy, decent hotel, value for money. 24hrs reception desk too.

This boutique hotel was fabulous. Every single staff member we encountered was so helpful, friendly and kind. The location is absolutely perfect. The breakfast selection was ample and their omelettes are seriously one of the best I’ve ever eaten. I would advise though that anyone with severe accessibility needs may struggle here. There are no lifts in the hotel and therefore the bedrooms and breakfast lounge are only accessible via stairs. We honestly loved our stay here and would return to beautiful Tallinn and the Merchants Hotel in a heartbeat. Thank you to everyone for making our stay here so memorable.
