Nunne Boutique Hotel

Nunne Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent choice for a short stay in Tallinn's capital, full of beautiful places close by. The Hotel is adjacent to the city walls, and a tower entrance is just around the corner. Buffet breakfast at the restaurant is superb. Coffee was excellent and tasty. Great stay, and the staff were very helpful. Shout-out to all the staff at reception and in the restaurant who helped us with recommendations on how to get around. Definitely deserves a 10 out of 10. Remember, reviews are very subjective and only reflect the way the person who stayed at the place traveled. I have been traveling for more than 50 years and have visited the 5 continents and over 44 countries. So, you can take my review as a good one."
