Yes, book it if you want the highest-rated hotel in our Tartu sample, right in the Old Town, at a price below the city median. The only real question is value: our Best Value pick scores almost the same, so compare both for your dates.

Couples, culture lovers and anyone visiting the university area will find the setting hard to beat. Guests praise the central spot in the Old Town, close to the university and to restaurants, and the location score is 9.9.
Breakfast is a highlight in reviews: a buffet plus hot dishes made to order, served with sparkling wine. Inclusion in your rate is not confirmed.
Family rooms are listed, and our data flags the hotel as pet-friendly, though conditions are not confirmed. If you are on a strict budget, our Budget pick costs about €34 a night less with a still solid score.
Location and getting around
The hotel is at Ülikooli 15, in Tartu's Old Town.
St. John's Church is about 0.2 km away, roughly 3 minutes on foot, and Tartu Cathedral about 0.3 km, around 4 minutes. The Estonian National Museum is about 2.2 km away, close to 28 minutes walking, which most people can manage but is a proper walk.
Walking times are straight-line estimates and have not been verified.
What guests say
The average is 9.4 out of 10 from 1,146 reviews. Guests single out the Old Town location and the breakfast, especially the made-to-order hot dishes.
The criticism is about price. Many guests see it as a quality stay, but some find the rates high.
Price and how it compares with our other Tartu picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026, for 2 adults in one room, was €116.38 per night, about €233 for the two nights. This is not a live quote, so check today's price for your dates.
That sits 7% below the sample median of €124.69. Our Budget pick, Dorpat Hotel, was €82 with a score of 8.8 and three stars. Our Best Value pick, Lydia Hotel, was €133 with a score of 9.3 and four stars.
Oddly for a Luxury pick, this hotel was cheaper than our Best Value choice on these dates, and better rated by 0.1. Prices move, so it is worth comparing the two for your own stay.
Listed facilities include a restaurant, family rooms, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning and a terrace.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 6 eligible hotels in Tartu. This one shared first place on review score.
Our Luxury slot gives priority to five-star hotels, and a four-star hotel must score at least 8.5 to qualify. The four stars here are estimated by the accommodation rather than official, but a 9.4 clears the score bar easily.
Before you book
