Travel information
Arriving by air
The Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport (Lennujaam) is only 4 km from the city centre.
Taxi from the airport
The taxi stop is located in front of the arrivals' hall. We recommend using the official taxi partners of Tallinn Airport (Forus Takso, Tallink Takso, Airport Taxi). Ask the driver for the estimated fare from the airport to the hotel, it should be around 20-30 EUR. Depending on the traffic, it will take approximately 20 minutes to get to the hotel. You can also use Uber or Bolt taxies.
Public transport from the airport
Recently the construction of a new tramway has started in Tallinn city centre and it causes several detours in public transport:
- unfortunately tram No 4 is not operating until airport for couple of more years;
- bus No. 2 is not travelling it's usual route. We suggest to drive until the final stop Balti jaam (railway station) and take the tram No 2 or 6 (direction Tondi, the stop is 300 meters from the final bus stop towards open air market) and exit in stop Linnahall (2 stops). Then you must cross the road and walk some hundred meters towards ship terminal A. You can also walk from railway station, the distance is 1,3 km.
.
- bus No 15 is a new bus passing the airport. Get off the bus in Estonia stop (the 9th stop) and walk until Mere tram stop (tram direction Kopli) and exit also in stop Linnahall (2 stops). Then it goes the same - you must cross the road and walk some hundred meters towards ship terminal A. You can also walk from Estonia stop approx. 1,5 km until you reach the hotel.
The bus stop is next to airport terminal.
If possible, we suggest to take a taxi from the aiprort.
Arriving by road
If you arrive at the bus station, we suggest to take a taxi (the taxis are standing next to final bus stop).
Beacuse of the construction of a new tramway public transport is disrupted.
Please look above, how to get to the hotel using bus No. 2 or 15. You must walk some hundred meters first towards the bigger magistral Tartu maantee, to get to the bus stop.
Arriving by sea
The hotel is situated next to the passenger port terminal A. Terminal D is within walking distance and reachable over the bridge (850 m).
