Tallinn: Summer in the city
Tallinn is an exceptional place to visit any time of the year, but summer is certainly our favourite. In the warmer months this sleepy medieval-era village takes on a whole new energy. The cobblestone streets are filled with people from nations around the globe, the gigantic cruise ships crowd the port and the terraces of Old Town are blanketed with chatter and good cheer.
OUR Tallinn HIGHLIGHTS
-
Restoran & Spaghetteria Kadriorg
This trendy, glass-covered cube of a restaurant fits perfectly with the poshness of its Kadriorg district surroundings.

Radisson Blu Hotel Tallinn
From the immaculate furnishings to little touches like shoe buffers in the corridor, Radisson never misses a beat, proving there’s something to be said for painfully strict international standards of quality.

Troika
One of Tallinn’s must-see cellar restaurants, Troika wows its clientele with a cosy, old-style Russian décor and a singer who belts out folk songs from a balcony from time to time.

Mekk
For modern Estonian cuisine done right, make sure to pay a visit to the Savoy Boutique hotel’s culinary gem that is Mekk. Although the portions are somewhat dietary, the fare is prepared imaginatively and the meals come complete with toasty hot buns and a delicious little starter to boot.

Krambude
This great medieval shop, brought to us by the folks at Olde Hansa, features authentic wares such as hand-blown glass, hand-crafted pottery, leather items and even spirits.

Barons
Housed in a gorgeous Old Town bank building dating back to 1912, this business class beauty has managed to retain much of its architectural grandeur both inside and out.

Latest Tallinn Comments
This is one of the few all-around rip-off restaurants in Tallinn. No local ever dares to visit Bossanova, and only poor/disoriented tourist bit the bait. Prices are about 2-3 times what you usually pay in Tallinn, quality is extremelly low and sevic[...]
This was our second visit to Villa Thai, the first was 3 years ago and again tonight, July 19th, 2010. Unfortunately, the food failed miserably on both visits. The unusual mixed decor is the highlight of this restaurant. The chicken wings are a tast[...]
Way too young local teenage boys were trying to hit on me constantly on the dance floor. Being straight, I really found it annoying and intimidating. Especially as I was with my girlfriend they should have understood the situation. The food, cocktai[...]
Why are the three major art galleries/museums in Tallinn ALL CLOSED on the same day, Monday? Couldn't you all co-operate and have one of them open on a Monday? Not surprisingly, my comments have arisen from the fact that I am planning a visit to Tal[...]
I think Norman is referring to the bus station under the Viru Centre that serves as the terminus for some city lines (of particular relevance to tourists the ones out to Pirita).Tallinn's central bus station for long distance and international servi[...]
This is not a very helpful television guide. Seriously! What is on TV3 right now?[...]
Excellent place.Gorgeous girls and sophisticate atmosphere.One of the best strip clubs i found in the world indeed.It's only a strip club in any case any other kind of extras are not included...

I agree with Tim. They belive their club is so good that no matter how they behave, people will still want to visit. No way, it is a boring place with an arrogant staff and nothing to do there except eating bad prepared food. Maybe they will change [...]
I purchased Pandora charms and found the sales people helpful and personable. I would return to this store.[...]
The information you gave here is lovely. Thank you![...]
This was the only club I've been to in Tallinn, The club was great. The best thing about this club is that we lived on the hotell that was "on top" of the club. ;) The hotell was superb ;)[...]
Sorry to disagree with the description: food is plane, unimaginative and not tasty at all! Prices are expensive for a cafeteria (beware, this is NOT a restaurant! At least not as we understand in Western Europe). For the same price you can get bette[...]
Toscana is closed and the phone number given in here is not in use.[...]
I had great time there when last time in Tallinn. Good service albeit a tad pricey. The helpful staff serviced me very well though.[...]
One the best Hostels i have ever stayed at. The Staff are absolutely wonderful. It is an extremely clean Hostel with new modern and clean showers. Very very comfortable beds. Extremely easy to get to from the Airport, Bust Statin or Ship terminals. [...]
