Aamupala, palvelu ja huoneen siisteys olivat todella hyviä. Petivaatteet puhtaita ja kylpyhuone suuri ja siisti sekin. Ainut mikä huoneesta puuttui oli kenkälusikka. Tulemme aivan varmasti uudestaan!

Good value in very good location
Good value hotel in very good location, close to Toompea Hill, Freedom Square ,& the Lower Town. It's also close to a tram stop which we used to get to & from the airport. We arrived around noon but unfortunately our room wasnt ready so we went for a walk. Our room was very comfortable- furniture & decor in the main room was bit tired but fine - and clean. The bathroom was more modern & had a great bath & shower. It was lovely having hot bath after coming in from the cold! I didnt see a hairdryer which would havd been nice & although there was a kettle, only herbal tea was offered. I wished I'd packed some coffee & milk sachets.. Breakfast was very hit & miss. I'd read previous comments about this before so it wasnt a surprise but it is frustrating that management don't seem to take fhe comments onboard & address issues. As others have said, things run out & then either take too long fo be replaced or have totally run out! For instance there was no orange juice (surely a staple item at breakfast) on our second morning. I asked & the lovely waitress brought me the last of it in the container explaining there wasnt enough to put out a jug. There was none on the third morning. Similarly with croissants, it took a long time to replacd them on our second morning & there were none at all on our third. I could go on wifh examples of lipton tea, cheese, ham etc but you get the picture. There was different friit every day eg passionfruit, kiwis which was nice.

I would recommend this hotel as it was conveniently located and good value for money. The positives were the room, the breakfast and the helpfulness of the staff. It was also openly inclusive and welcoming of LGBTQ guests, which I hadn’t seen before and is very positive. The down side was that it didn’t have air conditioning and was very hot. They provided fans, but I don’t think these help much. The weather was unusually hot, so I was told, so perhaps not an issue for most of the year. The other thing that wasn’t good was the bathroom. The tiles looked much like Soviet public toilet and the set up of a bath with a shower curtain is a bit outdated, and the shower hose ran hot and cold, so overall this needs to be improved. Our friends bathroom was refurbished and much better, so I think it’s something they are working on. Not ideal, but it did not detract from the overall positive experience of both the hotel and Tallinn.

Location
It is a good location right next to a Freedom Square, but still on a side street , so not too much traffic noise. Your basic 3 star hotel , everything was reasonably good. Elena at the front desk was very warm and friendly and accommodating to my request. Kudos to her !

Wonderful Place to Stay
St Barbara is a very accessible and friendly place to stay in Tallinn. The staff was great, offering help with directions, loaning me an electricity converter, etc. The breakfast was wide-ranging in choices and very good. Overall a great experience.

Dear Oksana, Hotel is not closed, the reception is closed at nights. Reception works from 7am to 11pm every day. After that, self check-in is possible. There is a phone number on the main door of the hotel, where you can get all the information and help you need, 24/7. Sorry you had a bad experience.

The hotel employes are nice and helpful. The only issue I have is that they state they have laundry facilities and dry cleaning services. They don't have either one so make sure you have enough clothes. Also, not a lot of choices of restaurants close by, you need to venture out a bit.

Location of hotel is excellent. It is in hearth of Tallinn, and still on quiet road. Room was nice and had high ceiling. However, hotel needs better management. For example, water from bath flooded whole bathroom. When having breakfaat, many things were finished, and they didnt bring more. The most hilarious was elevator...check out is at 12, so if you miss that, your card dont work...ok, kind of ok, except if you cant get to ground floor any more to do the check ou, you have catch 22. What on earth are they thinkin??? 😂😂😂

Nice little gem in Tallinn center.
Very nice and clean, great location with gated free parking. A little gem in Tallinn I wasnt expecting. Only one downside was the breakfast, pwdered scrambled eggs and the hot food not good. All the cold food was very good.

When i was first looking up this hotel i thought the rooms looked gloomy and was slightly concerned but when you get there they are better than the photos and so comfortable, the staff are lovely especially Larissa and they allowed us to check in early, and were really helpful , breakfast was adequate but never enough scrambled egg which was very popular , the only downside was the beer kellar was not open during our stay but we were able to have drinks in reception, the hotel is in a great central location to the old town and the beautiful Chritmas market , i would definitely stay there again , the hotel is a unique lovely building.
