It's really in the center of the (not so big) city, you can reach every corner within half an hour, the sea and the castle are just some meters away. The kitchen looks good, but we did not use it.

Overview

28 beds in 12 2-3 place rooms. From 12-24 you can visit our bar, pool and bowling facilities all in the same house.

Vanalinna Hostel`s new economy rooms are in the heart of Haapsalu´s old town. We are located next Bishop´s Castle wall, 200 m from the birdwatcher´s tower. The hotel is located only a short walk to restaurants and museums, directly across from the Old Town Square.

Haapsalu is a resort town on the West-Coast of Estonia. It was founded in the 13th century and has been well-known for centuries for its warm sea water, curative mud and peaceful atmosphere. The narrow streets with early XXth century wooden houses make the town centre a nice place to wander around. Most buildings were in a bad shape by the end of Soviet rule but most of them have now been restored.

The railway station, with its extremely long platform built for the czar's train, has also been restored.

The main sights in town are the medieval Episcopal Palace, the Promenade (Promenaad) and the Assembly Hall (Kuursaal, built in 1898), where you can take a picturesque walk along the seaside.
