This hotel is conveniently right next to the bus station, which suit our purpose of arriving and leaving by coach. The room was spacious and clean, we had a good view of the river. It is also close to shopping and dining area, and within very short walking distance to the old town. The staff was friendly and very available. The breakfast was also nicely prepared. We also dined at the restaurant at dinner, the food was delicious as well, they are priced reasonably, especially with the 10% discount for hotel guests. Will recommend this hotel.

The place is very well situated, and the view is probably one of the best from Tartu.
Though the bathrooms are aging a bit now.

Nice hotel with great location. Good, basic rooms. Good breakfast. Very functional. Some other Tartu hotels may have more history or a better facilities, and I've tried all of them, but still keep coming back to Dorpat for my short stays.

Decent hotel with spacious room in a good location on the river and easy to walk into town. Right by the bus station. Vegan porridge and available oat milk was an unexpected and welcome addition.

1 night stopover
Riverside modern hotel and bar adjacent to bus station and shopping centres. Busy street but no major road noise. Short walk to old town or Toome hill. Plenty of space, free breakfast and functioning wifi. Lime green bathroom tiles an acquired taste! Very good value in a surprisingly quiet Tartu, especially given it has Europe Capital of Culture status this year.

Convenient location, next to bus station and practically everything in the city center. Good breakfast. Bathroom could use some more thought. Put a stopper in the sink. There are modern ones that are convenient and don't get stolen. Also, how about some wash cloths? A non-slip mat for the very slippery tile floor in the shower would help. A few disposable plastic cups in the bathroom would be nice. Glass glasses are a bit dangerous in bathrooms where people are walking barefoot. The soap was fine, but extremely difficult to wash off. Perhaps not compatible with the water in Tartu?
