Nordic Hotel Forum

Nordic Hotel Forum is an upscale business and leisure hotel at Viru väljak 3 on Viru Square in central Tallinn, Estonia, directly beside the Viru Gate entrance to the medieval Old Town. The address places the hotel at the city's main transport crossroads: the Viru bus terminal, tram stops and the Viru Keskus shopping centre are all within a minute or two, and Tallinn Airport is reachable in about 15 minutes by tram or taxi. Town Hall Square is about a ten-minute walk through the Old Town streets, and the passenger port is roughly 20 minutes on foot. The hotel is a modern high-rise-style building, with functional but comfortable interiors in a contemporary Scandinavian-influenced style, and has long been a favourite among conference attendees and group travellers. Rooms are classified as Standard Rooms, Superior Rooms and Family Rooms, all with air conditioning and wifi, and non-smoking floors are provided. The hotel has a restaurant and bar, and breakfast is served as a wide buffet. A fitness centre is available, but there is no pool or full spa, so the property positions itself around convenience rather than relaxation. The service style is business-oriented, with efficient check-in, meeting facilities in the wider Viru Square area and staff who can arrange taxis, tickets and tours. Family Rooms and the proximity to shops and cafes also make it workable for family travellers with children. Prices of about €80-160 per night for a double room are lower than at many neighbouring upscale hotels, and the guest rating of approximately 4.3 reflects consistent ratings for location and value, with some guests noting that the building shows its age compared with newer competitors. It suits travellers who want a practical base for exploring Tallinn and for onward trips in Harju county, such as Viimsi, Keila-Joa or Lahemaa National Park, using the bus terminal and car rental desks nearby.
