One of Tallinn's most celebrated boutique hotels, The Three Sisters occupies three connected medieval merchants' houses at the northern end of the Old Town. Each of the 23 rooms is individually designed with period furnishings and modern comforts. The Michelin Guide-recognised Three Sisters Restaurant serves modern European cuisine in a vaulted medieval hall.
The Three Sisters Hotel occupies three interconnected 14th-century Hanseatic merchants' houses at Pikk 71 / Tolli 2, in the historic northern section of Tallinn's UNESCO World Heritage Old Town. The hotel is widely regarded as one of the finest small luxury hotels in the Baltic states, a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, and consistently ranks among Estonia's top accommodation addresses.
The 23 rooms and suites are individually decorated, each reflecting a different chapter of medieval Tallinn's mercantile history. Original stone walls, wooden beamed ceilings, handcrafted furniture, and Baltic amber accents are combined with modern bathrooms, high-quality linens, and fast Wi-Fi. The largest suites have separate sitting areas and original fireplaces.
The Three Sisters Restaurant, located in the ground-floor medieval hall and vaulted wine cellar, serves modern European cuisine with a strong focus on Estonian seasonal ingredients. The restaurant holds a Michelin Guide recommendation and is open to non-hotel guests. The hotel's concierge team is expert in arranging private tours of the Old Town, classical concert tickets at the Estonia Concert Hall, and transport across Estonia.
The hotel's location at the end of Pikk tänav, the Old Town's historic main commercial street, is steps from Oleviste Church, the Estonian History Museum in the Great Guild Hall, and Tolli street's medieval merchant warehouses. Airport transfers are available directly through the hotel by calling +372 630 6300.

Tips for visiting

- The restaurant's tasting menu is best appreciated at dinner; lunch offers lighter dishes at lower prices.
- Airport transfers can be arranged through the hotel (+372 630 6300) — more reliable than hailing a taxi with heavy luggage on Pikk street's cobblestones.
- Oleviste Church tower is a 2-minute walk and offers the best panoramic view over the Old Town rooftops (€5/person, ~$5.40).
When to visit
May through September for the best Old Town atmosphere. December is magical during the Christmas market but the hotel books out fastest — reserve months ahead for the festive period.
