Small meetings of up to 25 people, private dinners for up to 40 and intimate weddings can be organised at the Schlössle Hotel, a boutique hotel set in medieval merchant buildings on Pühavaimu Street in the Old Town of Tallinn. The scale suits a board meeting, a management retreat or a family celebration rather than a large conference.
Seminars and company events
The hotel has one meeting room on the first floor of the Stenhus, the medieval stone house at the core of the property. It seats up to 25 people theatre style. A screen, a projector, Wi-Fi and flip charts come with the room hire, while coffee breaks, lunch and dinner are booked separately. Teams can follow a working day with a dinner in the Stenhus Restaurant or a drink in the Cigar Lounge without leaving the building. For groups of 10 to 20, the hotel also runs evening formats such as a wine tasting game and a murder mystery dinner, with the game hosts provided by outside organisers.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are part of the offer. The hotel banqueting room takes up to 30 guests for a wedding dinner, and in summer the garden can host the celebration for up to 40. Banquet menus are put together with each couple or host on request.
Rooms and capacities
The Stenhus Restaurant spreads over two halls and seats 40 for a banquet. A private room inside the restaurant takes 20, which works for a board dinner or a family meal. The banqueting room takes 30, and the seasonal summer garden takes 40. The meeting room holds 25 theatre style. No space is designed for more than 40 guests, so this is a venue for small groups that want a quiet, private setting in the historic center.
Accommodation
Guests can stay on site in seven categories of room and suite, from Superior Garden rooms to a Presidential Suite, with Deluxe rooms, a Junior Suite and a One-Bedroom Suite in between. The total number of rooms is not published on the hotel website, so organisers planning a group stay should ask for availability when they send a request.
Catering
Food is handled in-house by the Stenhus Restaurant. Meeting breaks and meals are ordered as extras, and banquet menus are personalised for each event. The Cigar Lounge and the summer garden extend the evening after dinner.
History and setting
The corner of Pühavaimu and Vene streets was first recorded in writing in 1363. The burgomaster Marquart Bretholt bought the stone house in 1464, and in 1739 the merchant Wilhelm Brinck acquired the twin storehouses next door, one of which was restored in 1758. The buildings keep medieval base walls, cut stone portals, spiral staircases and a central chimney. Pühavaimu Street once linked the central market to the harbour, and the Town Hall Square is a short walk away.
Getting there
The hotel stands at Pühavaimu 13/15 inside the Old Town. Tallinn Airport is a short drive away, and the Balti jaam railway station sits just west of the Old Town walls, within walking distance for guests with light luggage.
