What guests think

At Hotel Tartu, travellers highlight the central, bus-station-adjacent location and generally clean, comfortable rooms, with some noting it remains quiet despite the setting and offers good value, making it a convenient base for sightseeing, conferences, and short stays across Tartu.

Feedback on staff is mixed, with many praising professional, helpful service while others report indifferent or unfriendly interactions. Breakfast is widely enjoyed, though a few guests found elements like coffee quality or bakery selection average. Wellness access is mostly free in the morning with fees at other times, and parking—though available—can be confusing to navigate. Expect a practical, central stay with solid comfort and a few operational quirks.

Nice hotel with good service. The parking is difficult because they don't explain the parking layout very well. There is additional parking at the back of the building, which was always available for us. Good breakfast buffet. Very close to the main square and the walk along the river. Enjoyed and would happily stay again.

TThe property is situated in a great location with numerous shopping centers and restaurants within walking distance. The Tartu bus station is conveniently located across the street, providing easy access to Tallinn and other destinations. The breakfast at the cafe downstairs offered a variety of freshly prepared options and excellent service. The front desk staff were exceptionally helpful and professional. It would have been more convenient if the hotel had a buggy to transport our 7 luggages to the room. Although the room was clean, it appeared that the bedsheets had not been changed from the previous guests. Unlike most hotels, the room did not have coffee or hot water machines. Additionally, there was no laundry service available, which could be inconvenient for guests on an extended stay.

The hotel is nice but the staff was not interested in us as guests. No one greeted us when we arrived, said welcome, asked how our stay was or even looked at us. Totally anonymous. I felt rather unwelcome and I got a feeling that we were more of a trouble to them, rather than a customer. The hotel was good itself, but we will not come back given our experince the staff. Soviet era attitude!
