Cru Hotel
Estonia
CRU Hotel occupies a fifteenth-century merchant’s house on Viru Street in Tallinn’s Old Town. Its 15 individually designed rooms retain limestone walls and timber beams, bringing the building’s long history into the experience without sacrificing private bathrooms and contemporary essentials. Many rooms look into a peaceful courtyard, while the suites face the historic high street. Selected suites add a bath or sauna, and the ground-floor CRU restaurant makes dining part of the stay. With Town Hall Square and the city centre close by, the hotel works particularly well for travellers who enjoy exploring on foot and prefer architectural character to the uniformity of a larger property.
