The Houses · 1362 – 2003

Six centuries under the same gables

The three houses on Pikk 71 were bought out of the Hanseatic merchant rolls in 2001 and restored between 1999 and 2003 — brick by brick, beam by beam — into twenty-three rooms. Nothing modern was forced inside; everything modern lives where guests will never see it: the edge platform, the reservation engine, the underfloor systems.

Medieval gabled brick facade under a northern sky

Three Hanseatic Merchant Houses

Consecutively restored in 1362 on Pikk Street — the longest and most aristocratic of Tallinn's medieval avenues. Each gable retains its original brickwork, granite quoining, and hand-forged window cramps.

Hedged garden passage through the courtyard

The Cobblestone Courtyard & Herb Garden

A limestone-flagged passage between the gables, planted with sage, thyme, and winter heather. The courtyard is the hotel's quiet centre — no traffic, no voices but the gardeners and the pigeons.

Timber-beamed salon interior with warm light

The Mezzanine Salon & Timber Beams

Hand-carved 14th-century spruce beams, salvaged and re-set in 1999–2003, span the mezzanine salon at 4.2 metres. The salon hosts morning coffee service, chess, and the hotel's only fire in the house during winter.

Limestone vaulted cellar with casked wine

Forest-to-Table Dining Room & Cellar Vaults

Beneath the central gable, 600-year-old limestone archways frame the private dining room and cellar vaults. The menu changes with the forest; the wine list with the cellar.
