Enjoyed the stay. Welcomed like a valued customer. Loved the gym, small but it had everything i needed. Would recommend and rebook if im going to visit Tallinn again.
A perfect hotel for an international tourist. Great facilities, friendly staff, great breakfast. The only single downfall is the road it's on. A challenge to get to with a car or on foot.
Great stay at Original Sokos Hotel Viru. The staff were friendly, everything was clean, and the restaurants and café were very good. Best of all, it’s right next to Tallinn’s Old Town—perfect location and very walkable. Highly recommend!
Great location, clean and comfy rooms. Coffee/tea making facilities would have been nice but otherwise a perfect stay in a good hotel

Great location with beautiful views of Old Town from our hotel window. Rooms are small but efficient. Breakfast Buffet is extremely crowded. No coffee makers in rooms.
We stayed six nights at this hotel, which is centrally located. We had a junior twin room on the last floor, with a great view. It was spacious, comfy, very clean. The beds were very comfortable. Staff were very polite, professional and helpful. There were A LOT of options to chose from for breakfast. We would not hesitate staying at this hotel in the future, and we have no problem recommending it.
Great hotel location next to the Old Town. Stunning view of the city/harbour from the room. Spacious, comfortable and clean room. Friendly and welcoming staff at check in. Thank you

Great for city trip
Excellent location, next to the old town with a great view over the city. Parking is close and there's an excellent Mexican restaurant. Breakfast is also very good.
Downside is that the sound isolation could be much better. From outside (trams) and also from neighbouring rooms.
Good location. Walking distance from all the main places. Friedly staff. Clean rooms. Negative thing is that at least in our room in 18th floor noises from neighbor rooms were little distractive.

Central location which is easy to reach the old town.
Even though the hotel was renovated, there is a sad feeling that this building is very old with wall scratches, mold in the bathroom, and patches all over the place.
