Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Relatively fast, password-protected wi-fi, quality breakfast with multiple choices, relatively large room, possibility to check in during the night. Downsides were the lack of a regular desk in the room or no kettle. The property is located a bit further from the city centre and the stuffed animals are not environmentally friendly and might be disturbing for some. During one of the nights, there was some sort of a celebration in the restaurant downstairs with loud singing and noise until late in the night--this was quite uncomfortable. Overall, still a very good choice and value though.

Old Hunting Lodge Type Hotel

This is an old hunting lodge type hotel with plenty of old character; displaying stuffed animals, everyday items from yesterday year hanging from the ceilings, walls or perched on windowsills! Each of the 40 plus rooms upstairs were named by European cities as well as numbered. You had an old fashioned key to open & close your room! Our room 'Turku' was a tad stuffy, although there was a ceiling fan or windows to open as an option. Breakfast had a good selection of hot & cold, cereals, pastries & fruit etc. Coffee was very good, as you would expect in Estonia!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
A rather quirky place, with lots of historical motifs and stuffed animals, entertaining but also a bit tedious on my second visit. Rooms ok, but mine lacked a bedside table. Dining room OK, evening meal not bad, but breakfast buffet was almost gone by 9 am. Parking is good, the main reason for us staying there this time. About a mile from the centre of Tartu, so not so good for visitors to the city. But, seriously, not good for the mobility or visually impaired. Both front and back staircases had 3/4 steps at the bottom with no supporting rail.

Not really Olde Worlde, but good enough.

A bit of an over-the-top fakery of Olde Worlde German, and further out of town than I'd have liked (but that did mean that parking was easy), but overall pretty good. Excellent breakfast, and the food in their main restaurant is also very good. Could have done with better quality bed clothes (duvet was too flimsy, pillow too large and hard), but a small point among many good ones. Good value for money overall

Cozy and unique

Charming and unique hotell in Tartu city centre. Was visiting friends who had a car, so don't really know how easy or not it was to get around, but it's a small town. Tried to use the room as an office one day, but table and chairs were not perfect for that. Otherwise cool design and all.

Hansa vastasi odotuksia: ei hienostelua, mutta kaikki toimi. Huone (213) oli siisti ja hiljainen, lämmintä vettä tuli hyvällä paineella ja sänky kelpasi. Aamiainen oli runsas ja illalla ravintola tarjosi tyydyttävää ruokaa. Helppo tulla autolla, keskustaan vähän matkaa.

Bonne option à Tartu. Le centre-ville est accessible en une quinzaine de minutes à pied, et l'hôtel dispose d'un parking gratuit pour les clients où se garer. Décoration de l'hôtel atypique et assumée à fond ! Les chambres sont confortables. Petit-déjeuner buffet assez varié et bien réapprovisionné.
