“ This is a great hostel. The staff are fun and friendly, there are security lockers available, and the location is great. Only potential issues are the lack of bathrooms, and the size of the rooms - with quite a few packs, they can be hard to get around. But don´t let that put you off, the vibe... ”

Description of Tallinn Backpackers
Tallinn Backpackers is the only hostel in the heart of the Old Town with true backpackers spirit: cozy, easy going and THE place in town to meet other travellers from all over the world. We are located in a recently renovated, ex-ambassadorial residence with a modern kitchen, luxury bathrooms and a sauna. We offer you: - Top Old Town location - Free Internet & WiFi - Free linen & lockers - Free tea & coffee - Free sauna - Free luggage storage - Free walking tours - Pub crawls - Day trips to Lahemaa National Park - Day trips to the former Soviet military town Paldiski - Movie nights - Free foosball - Wii - Free maps HANG OUT IN OUR BEAUTIFUL COMMON ROOM! We have a huge and comfy common room where you can watch movies on our big screen, chill out to some music, have a beer at our home made 'Bunk bar', challenge someone to foosball, make some new friends or just flop down on a couch to read a book and regain some energy. SUPERB OLD TOWN LOCATION We are just around the corner from the Town Hall Square and mere footsteps away from Tallinn's main sights, museums, restaurants and pubs. A supermarket is just around the corner, as is a 24 hours convenience store. The hostel itself is easy to find and to reach, whether you come by plane, bus, train or ferry. If you need a taxi, we can arrange you the cheapest in town for free. FRIENDLY STAFF AND GREAT FUN Our staff are a mix of travellers and locals who can help you out with anything you need, be it about the Tallinn and Estonia, travelling around or where to go out. Probably we'll join you too, especially during our PUBCRAWLS on Wednesday (which ends up with 'Ladiesnight' in Tallinn's most popular nightclub) and Friday. But also any other day can be a party, and we gladly drink a beer with you at our little 'Bunk bar'. WANT TO SEE MORE IN ESTONIA? - Day trips to the beautiful National Park Lahemaa and the creepy former Soviet military town Paldiski. For more information about our tours, check out our website (tallinnbackpackers.com/day-trips). - Our lovely Renata takes you for free on her 'Dodgy Walking Tour' to explore parts of Tallinn which you will never see on a regular tour (on Tuesday and Saturday only).
