The hotel was very clean and fresh! Situated just beside a major crossroads, the location is perfect for those travelling by car. There was an elevator just around the corner from our room (with sauna) to the shopping center, providing access to shops, restaurants and an ice rink! The room was very spacious. In addition to a sink, a small fridge and a micro wave oven, it had three full sized closets and two smaller ones which would be perfect for a longer stay. The bed was very comfortable with two large pillows and two medium ones. The sauna could fit two adults just fine. The parking slots were just outside the main entrance and were free of charge. The breakfast had plenty of tasty options to choose from.

Clean, modern hotel on bypass road around Tartu. Restaurant was excellent. Room was uncomfortably warm at night because of inability leave window open (too many bugs and no screen on window) and A/C would not go below 20 degrees (C). No gym onsite.

Wat een schitterend hotel. Echt een aanrader als je Tartu gaat bezoeken. Mooi, modern en heerlijke bedden. Het personeel was super vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Het hotel is ook gelegen bij een groot winkelcentrum. Dat kan je dus ook makkelijk bezoeken als je wilt. Maar je hebt er geen last van dat het zo dichtbij is. Parkeren kan je voor de deur en dat is ook erg pretiig

A very nice place to relax. I Had a Lovely corner spacious room. I did need cleaning the first day, but on the second day, I did leave a sign for cleaning. But coming back, the used coffee cup was still dirty, and no coffee supply was replenished. Towels were changed, but the rest wasn't done. It wasn't a problem, but it did give an unpleasant feeling.

Spoilt really. The only downside would be the location. It is way outside of the main town centre but there are plenty of buses that one could catch that drops them off about 10 minutes away walking.

An excellent property, reflecting the most thoughtful contemporary standards. Located adjacent to a shopping mall with countless food and shopping choices. Breakfast was excellent. One tiny complaint: In the bathroom sink, install pop-up stoppers so that the sink can be used. They're simple and low maintenance, and they're becoming common in more properties. All in all, definitely recommend. It will likely be our choice for Tartu hotels.
