If it's good enough for Queen Elizabeth...

My Room At Three Sisters

Estonian Venture Capitalist Allan Martinson, is playing host to Rick & me for our two-day visit to Estonia. He offered to make our hotel reservations, which we thought was a nice courtesy.  Little did we know that he would book us rooms in the Five Star Three Sisters Hotel,where Queen Elizabeth stayed during her visit last week.

Now the Queen may have pickier tastes than Rick and me. While she was sleeping in Buckingham Palace, Rick and I have stayed at a Travel Lodge and an aging airport Golden Tulip in Brussels.

We were wonderfully greeted, then escorted into through a wonderful, ancient cobblestoned courtyard, into our respective wonderful and unique rooms.  Mine has one wall of exposed wood that is clearly several hundred years old.

This isn't a travel blog, so I won't wax on. But if you ever find yourself in Tallinn, Estonia, which appears so far to be a pretty good idea, Three Sisters Hotel, seems to me to be the place to stay.
