Rixwell Viru Square Hotel

Excellent location in the old city. Perfect for exploring. 3 quick notes first if you are not used to bright sun between 4am - 12pm to blinds will not keep the room dark - easily rectified by use of an eye mask, second only one small elevator - be ready to wait or be happy to take the stairs some times, third you’ll have to walk a bit for food that isn’t in the tourist area - again only a problem if you choose it to be

Used this hotel two years ago also and since then the quality unfortunately went down. Additional fees are not explained ahead of time. For example parking is paid, and you have to notify the receptionist at check-in, or you’ll be fined. Reaching out to hotel staff for help did absolutely nothing. The hotel is right in the Old Tallinn, and that’s the main reason I chose to stay here the first time, but I also received excellent service. The second time proved that without excellent service, I can find another hotel maybe not as close, but that would appreciate my business.

Excellent value. Friendly staff. Good breakfast. Really enjoyed having own sauna in room. Would stay again

Cobran por el parking y la sauna cuesta 40EUR 2 horas.

Nettes Hotel in der Altstadt Tallinns, gut erreichbar. Von hier aus ist die Altstadt nur einen Katzensprung entfernt. Das Hotel ist sauber und das Personal freundlich. Besonders gefallen haben uns die beiden angeschlossenen Restaurants.

Nice hotel located just inside the old city walls, with large rooms, maybe slightly dated, but exceptional value for money. Friendly staff, and a great bakery/cafe underneath called Rukis which did great breakfasts. Would definitely stay again

旧市街へのアクセスがいい、駐車がホテル内にあり便利

Chambre spacieuse et propre ! Gros plus pour le sauna privé ! La vue du 5 eme est incroyable Petit déjeuner variété très complet Personnel très à l’écoute

I stayed for a week, and enjoyed the large room with seating furniture. And the price was good, I brought my AppleTV and could see my TV-things on the wall-mounted TV, which was good to have. There was only bath soap for the shower, so I was glad to bring shampoo and conditioner. Cleaning was good and only when you requested it, perfect in my book. The fridge was useful. The location is very good, just next to the Viru Gate and with in-house cafe and restaurant. Breakfast is served until 10.30 and 11 which I found very useful too, and checkout is at 12, also very good. I hate early checkouts. The room also had a water boiler, which I didn't use, but really a nice thing to have. The service was very friendly in general.

Good facility and clean, perfect location. Breakfast included. Onsite restaurant. WIFI a little slow. Whole room including Bathroom is small though.

Floors very untidy.

13時くらいにホテル到着したのですが、すでに部屋は用意されており部屋に通してもらう事が出来ました。 立地は観光の入口ヴィル門近くで重たいスーツケースを持って運ぶ距離が短くレストランやコンビニやスーパーマーケットも全く困ることはありませんでした 3月中旬に行ったのですが暖房を強めに入れておいたら夜中には暑くなって消してしまうほどでした。 部屋はメンテナンスや清掃が行き届いているようでとてもきれいに感じました 部屋からの眺望は部屋にもよるのでしょうが今回は5階という上層階もあって天窓？のような窓があったので採光はとてもよく部屋は明るかったですが眺望はそれほど良いとは言えない感じです 朝食は質・量ともに十分でした。最終日は土曜という事もあってレストランの営業が8時からと遅く、自分たちは食べることができませんでしたが7時くらいのチェックアウト時にお弁当にするから早めにダメ？と聞いたらフロントスタッフがレストランまで聞きに言ってくれて15分程待ってくれたらOKと言ってくれました 結局バスの時間に間に合わなさそうだったので利用しませんでしたが前日などに伝えておくと対応してくれそうです

The hotel rooms were very, very dirty. In one of our rooms, the toilet had pee in it and had not been flushed or cleaned. The bathroom smelled worse than a public restroom. In the second room we reserved, there was a man’s underwear hanging on top of the hair dryer. The carpets were filthy and the rooms smelled musky and dirty. I question if the linens were changed between guests. I would never stay again.

The room was incredibly clean, had a beautiful view especially in the snow. Perfect location only a short walk to the ferry port if you wanted to do a day trip to Helsinki, based in the old town, only a short walk from the castle. Beautiful restaurants and bars surrounding & inside the hotel. The staff were polite and happy to help. I would definitely come back again another time, I was sad to leave, felt like a home from home.

Toilet was not cleaned properly, was urine stains on the toilet. People were smoking outside the main entrance, the cigarette smoke seeped into the window making it impossible to sleep with the window open. In the breakfast it seemed like the hard boiled eggs were cooked the day before.

Sentralt i Gamlebyen. Fint stort rom i 5. etg med vannkoker , te og kaffe og et lite minibarkjøleskap. En liten sittegruppe. Stor seng, litt hard - etter min mening- men vi sov godt. Stille og rolig og bra renhold. 3. gang på dette hotellet. Kommer gjerne igjen.

-Smutsigt rum. Alla ytor hade fläckar eller var klibbiga. -Obekväm säng. För mjuk. -Saknades möjlighet att stänga ute solen. Inga tjocka gardiner fanns. +Läget var fantastiskt.

Location is good for exploring the Tallinn old town. More attention is needed in relation to room cleaning. The breakfast is good.

An excellent location right in the heart of the old town. Check in was hassle free and the room was clean and spacious. Breakfast was tasty and good options. The only two issues I had with the hotel was the lack of air conditioning in the room which meant I had to attempt to sleep with the windows open which meant a considerable amount of noise from the street from bars and late night revellers. Had my stay been longer I would probably have requested a room elsewhere in the hotel. All in all the hotel was a reasonable price and was located perfectly for exploring the city.

Direkt in der Altstadt, eine Karaokebar gegenüber, eine Bar auf gleicher Etage nebenan, es war laut bis nach um 4 Uhr.

The mattress was really passed through! I fehlt Like there was a hole in the middle of the bed, so it was unpossible to sleep in prone position!!!

The room was fine BUT as soon as we got into bed the nightclub 5m away across the passage started with EXTREMELY loud music and went on until about 6 AM. Couldn't get a wink of sleep. Swelteringly hot with windows closed (and still noisy), unbearable with them open because of the noise. Night staff very unhelpful when another guest asked for a room change, it didn't happen. Make sure you see your room before accepting it.

Die Lage ist Top. Leider ist das Bett eine Zumutung. Die Matratze war total durchgelegen und jetzt habe ich Rückenschmerzen und muss zum Arzt. Am Abend ist Schlaf erst ab 1 Uhr morgens möglich da sich eine Disko oder Club in der unmittelbaren Umgebung findet. Durch die Fenster hört man den Krach als wäre man drin. Auch aus den Nachbarzimmern hört man jedens Geräusch.

Hotellet var OK med bra frukost. Rummet var det värsta någonsin. Mörkt rum med en massiv stenmur 0,5 meter utanför fönstret. Fruktansvärt ! Gick inte att byta då man påstod att hotellet var fullt.

The double room I booked was very small and the bed was tired and not particularly comfortable. The shower was fine, however, and the hotel is conveniently situated for the old town. I thought the cost was pretty exorbitant considering that it didn’t include breakfast.

Used this hotel two years ago also and since then the quality unfortunately went down. Additional fees are not explained ahead of time. For example parking is paid, and you have to notify the receptionist at check-in, or you’ll be fined. Reaching out to hotel staff for help did absolutely nothing.

Very helpful staff and the room was nice.

I had a bit of an issue during check in, but staff helped me to fix it. Very nice central location, budget hotel at a good price

Perfect location only a short walk to the ferry port if you wanted to do a day trip to Helsinki, based in the old town, only a short walk from the castle. Beautiful restaurants and bars surrounding & inside the hotel. The staff were polite and happy to help. I would definitely come back again another time, I was sad to leave, felt like a home from home.

Overall stay OK but big security issue and no one care ! Early morning someone manipulate the door with noise and succeed to enter (seems without card, probably just open with a tool as doors are not great locked). Hopefully we wake up and the guy left, but we were afraid by this event. I informed the reception 2 time about that, that they must check their various cameras and warn the police and inform us, but they just don’t care about this incursion. So place to avoid if you want to sleep safe.

Hotel is in a perfect position it represented however the reception could use training in customer service

Ibhave stayed here many times, as usual the staff were extremely polite and accomodating. The rooms are always very clean and well kept.

Perfect location in the Old Town. Gives an impression of being "outdated and worn". No smiling staff! I was given a room on the 4th floor, with a view to another building in the same complex very close with distance maximum 4 metres. When, after dinner and a walk around the Old Town, I returned to the room. It then turned out that in the building I had a view of, there was a nightclub/bar with a terrace, also on the 4th floor. I had full access to the party! There was a full party and very loud music. This continued throughout the night. Absolutely hopeless! On my request at reception the following morning, if this really wasn't something I should have been informed about? Was the answer, "at the risk of you taking me as rude, I would ask you to read the description of the hotel better! This is Tallinn, a party city, and especially here in the Old Town, and then there is music and parties" I have read through the description given on Rixwell's website of the hotel. There is nothing to indicate that here you must be set on sleeping to pounding high bass, and an outdoor party on the terrace of the building 4 meters away. I cannot recommend this hotel and will naturally never stay there again

Situation de l'hôtel très agréable et pratique, MAIS : Accueil très désagréable et jamais de sourire. Chambre spacieuse avec beĺle vue (comme demandé au préalable) mais mal insonorisée. Pas d'occultation d'une des fenêtres. Comme dans les couloirs moquette fatiguée et tachée. Eclairage peu agréable. Lits très étroits et literie inconfortable. Salle de bain spacieuse mais joints douche brunâtres. Petit déjeuner copieux, machines à café très efficace mais qualité moyenne pour la nourriture. Salle de b

Great location, and the staff was fantastic.

The location makes this hotel by being within walking distance to everything in the old town. Only a 1 minute walk to Viru Gate. The prices during the week were very competitive, but more expensive at the weekend. The room was clean and had what we needed. The breakfast was served a long time and had cereal, porridge, eggs, sausage, fruit, cheese, salami, salad, fish and breads.

Nice and good location

Die Unterkunft befindet sich in der Altstadt, direkt hinter der Stadtmauer. Dadurch konnten wir zu Fuß alles erreichen. Das Hotel ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen.

Lage ist optimal.

The location is perfect

旧市街へのアクセスがいい、駐車がホテル内にあり便利

Very good value during the week. The location was perfect snd walking distance to the old town in Tallinn. Viru Gate was 1 min walk and the Town Hall square was 5 mins walk. We had a free room upgrade.

The location of this property is awesome! It is literally a few steps from Viru Gate as you enter the Old Town, which is perfect for tourists. It has lots of cafes and restaurants as soon as you walk out of the hotel. The staff was very helpful. The room was very large and clean. The only thing I would want other guests to know is if you are staying here over the weekend, then it will be loud. There are lots of restaurants and bars downstairs that are open until 5am in the morning, so bring your earplugs! Other than that this hotel is excellent, and I would hands down stay here again when I come back to Tallinn!

Hôtel très bien situé au coeur de la vieille ville et à proximité des transports pour visiter l'extérieur. Le seul bémol les p'tits déjeuners chers 14€ pour le peu de choix très simple et peu fournis ...grand dommage

Flott beliggenhet. Rommet litt gammeldags. Frokostsalen litt simpel, frokosten ok, men kunne hatt litt mer variasjon (frukt, for eks.). Service var bra.

The Hotel was very convenient to everything in old Town. The staff was very helpful and the breakfast was good.

Had business in Tallinn and decided to try Rixwell. Location is very good in the old town, close to both restaurants, bars and shopping. I think it is quite torn and need renovation. Staff is doing their job but could and should be much more friendly. Poor breakfast with swedish measures, but it will take you through the day.

Nice hotel located just inside the old city walls, with large rooms, maybe slightly dated, but exceptional value for money. Friendly staff, and a great bakery/cafe underneath called Rukis which did great breakfasts. Would definitely stay again

Location is very comfortable. Furniture is pretty old, but overall clean. Unfortunately breakfast moved from the restaurant to the cellar, and lost in optic and also quality.

Overordnet et meget godt ophold. Hotellet ligger centralt. Værelserne er pæne og rene. Personalet venlige og hjælpsomme. Desværre trækker det ned der begge dage vi opholdt os på hotellet ikke var hverken kaffe eller te til morgenmaden på grund af ødelagde maskiner. Desuden dårligt udvalg af mad på morgenbuffeten.

The hotel was very nice and welcoming,it was 2 minutes walk from town hall and Christmas market. Good choice of breakfast, restaurant attached so lot of choice.

Very limited choice, not much choice for people who don’t eat pork meat. Scramble eggs are not edible at all. Milk bottles are not properly labelled as seriously allergy hazard.
