Had a wonderful 1 night stay here on a little visit to Tartu from Tallinn. The hotel, staff and location were all excellent. All the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was modern, clean and very comfortable. The spa included with the stay was fun and relaxing. The location is amazing as well, very short walk to the cathedral ruins which made for an easy visit at night which is recommended. It’s lit up quite spectacularly. All in all we had a great stay at Lydia and enjoyed Tartu. Highly recommend.
