DICTUMFACTUM Modern Apartment Viru Gates Overview

I’ll be honest – when I first heard the name DICTUMFACTUM Modern Apartment Viru Gates, I thought someone was just trying way too hard to sound fancy. But you know what? After staying there, I actually get it. The whole “deed follows word” thing (that’s what DICTUMFACTUM means, by the way) really does sum up what they’re going for here.

The location is what sold me initially. You’re literally steps from Viru Gates – and I mean the actual medieval gates, not some tourist trap knockoff. Walking out in the morning with your coffee and seeing those ancient stone towers while heading into Tallinn’s Old Town never gets old. The apartment itself sits in this perfect sweet spot where you can duck into the cobblestone maze of the old city in two minutes, but you’re also close enough to the modern shopping areas that you don’t feel completely cut off from, well, normal life. I spent most evenings just wandering between the two worlds – medieval streets for dinner, then back to grab groceries at the Viru Centre when I remembered I actually needed toothpaste.

What really impressed me was how they managed to make a 3-star place feel way more upscale than its rating suggests. I mean, that 9.1 rating isn’t just inflated reviews from friends and family – the apartment genuinely delivers. The modern touches are thoughtful without being show-offy, and honestly, the kitchen setup is better than what I have at home (which isn’t saying much, but still). The whole space feels like someone actually lives there and cares about the details, not like a sterile hotel room where everything’s bolted down. You get proper wine glasses, decent coffee gear, and – this might sound weird – but the shower pressure is fantastic. After walking around those uneven cobblestones all day, trust me, that matters. The only minor thing I’d mention is that weekend nights can get a bit lively with people heading to and from the Old Town bars, but honestly, if you’re staying this close to the action, you’re probably part of that crowd anyway. Plus, the windows are good enough that it’s not really an issue unless you’re an incredibly light sleeper.

  • Very Good – Nooa from Finland (8/10)

  • Great location, spacious apartment with sauna and comfortable bed. – Anonymous from Latvia (8/10)

    Great location, spacious, comfortable bed, sauna.

  • DictumFactum – прекрасно, как и было заявлено) – Alina from Russia (10/10)

    Прекрасное местоположение у квартиры – лучше и не придумаешь, у самых ворот Виру и в 150 м от Ратушной площади. Рядом Призма, Мак, ресторанчики и все, что душа пожелает. В квартире чисто, деревянные полы, продуманное освещение, широченные подоконники, удобная кухня, отличное постельное белье, красивый свежий санузел с сауной. Спасибо хозяевам за заботу – мы провели чудесное время в Таллинне! Искренне рекомендуем квартиру семье или компании из 2-3-4 человек, и сами ещё приедем.

  • Estupendo apartamento muy completo. – César from Spain (10/10)

    El apartamento se nota que se ha decorado con gusto y para que los huéspedes estén cómodos. Pero lo mejor de todo es que está muy bien equipado, lavadora, lavavajillas y cápsulas para ambos electrodomésticos, tendedero, plancha, tabla, café, e incluso aceite de oliva. No hizo falta comprar nada para el apartamento durante nuestra estancia, ya que estaba todo bien provisto. Ah, y una fantástica sauna para rematar.

  • Perhe Kajaanista – Pirkko from Finland (8/10)

    Erinomainen sijainti vanhassakaupungissa lähellä Viru-keskusta. Keskeisestä sijainnista huolimatta hiljainen ja rauhallinen ympäristö. Asunto kivasti remontoitu ja sisustettu, makuuhuone hulppean tilava.

  • Хорошее размещение для путешественников – Olga from Germany (9/10)

    Очень удобное расположение для гостей с багажом. Вы в Старом городе, но рядом с воротами Виру и транспортом. Получение и сдача ключей без проблем.
    Рядом отличные завтраки в кафе.

  • Mahtavalla sijainnilla oleva nätti ja toimiva asunto – suosittelen! – Kaisa from Finland (10/10)

    Aivan mahtava sijainti ja erittäin toimiva, tilava asunto. Hyvällä maulla sisustettu ja kiva fiilis!

  • Wonderful – Anne from Finland (9/10)

    Hyvin varustettu, hyvän kokoinen, siisti ja helppo avainsysteemi.

  • Если устранить холод в душевой, то в целом очень хорошо – Jevgenia from Estonia (8/10)
