Hello Dear All.

Does anyone know of a hotel in Tallinn that has a fire place in their room(s)? I assume there might be few with a fireplace in some sort of "VIP" or "Presidential" suite but I'm looking for something easier accesible to simple mortals.

Thanks to all.

Not sure... but we stayed at a hotel called Bern and It was really good value for the €.

Well, my personal favourite is Telegraaf as well a couple of other, less fancy but more "medieval" ones but.. I just need the bloody fireplace!

What, they got a sale on marshmallows?

I wouldn't even know a suite like that in Helsinki... I'd suspect something like the cabins they rent in the boonies would have it, so if someone rents their house...

Yrjönkadun vintti is a small conference room, with a fireplace IRCC.

In Tallinn, it might be easier to find a private penthouse to be rented out than a hotel room with a fireplace... I know some people who stayed in one of those...

I guess I could but I'm afraid the satff won't appreciate me stuffing the tv screen with firewood and igniting it.

I suspect fire regulations don´t allow hotel rooms with a fireplace. If I was a hotel owner and my hotel had rooms with fireplaces I could not sleep for worrying.

Thank you everybody.

Actully, I wanted the fireplace in the room, not a conference center, and a real one, with wood burning and stuff, and in Tallinn, in the Old Town.

Ok, in case someone will ever want the same information, here is what I found. There are 2 hotels like that in Tallinn, St. Olav and Merchant's house, both are in the Old Town and "medieval", both have real wood burning fireplaces in ther suites.

St. Olav - the fire place is in a Junior suite - one big room, courtyard entrance, whirlpool), around 130eur. Also in "not junior" suite (don't remember the name, haven't checked the amenities - around 270eur.

Merchant's House - the fire place is in their Courtyard (Executive) suite - courtyard entrance, 57sqm total, bedroom, living room, lounge (the fireplace is there), sauna, around 330eur.

P.S. MCwboy, what is IRCC?
