Schlössle occupies a group of adjoining medieval merchant houses on Pühavaimu Street, one of the Old Town’s prettiest lanes, close to the Town Hall Square and the Holy Spirit Church. It is a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World and sits at the quiet, intimate end of Tallinn’s luxury scale, with a limited number of rooms rather than hundreds, historic interiors and a restaurant on the premises. Staying here means stepping straight onto cobbles, and the key Old Town sights, the Town Hall Square, Pikk Street and the Toompea hill, are within an easy walk. Rooms are individually arranged in the old buildings, so layouts and sizes vary, and the atmosphere leans towards antiques and heritage rather than minimalist modern design.
Who it suits
Couples, anniversaries and special occasions, and anyone who wants the medieval city on the doorstep and does not mind paying for it. It is a strong winter choice, when the Old Town is at its most atmospheric and the Christmas market is a short stroll away.
Trade-offs
Rates sit at the top of the market, the old buildings mean steps and narrow corridors, and cobbled lanes are hard going with wheeled luggage, so ask the hotel about arrival by taxi. Because room layouts differ, say what matters to you, whether quiet, view or space, when you book.
