Lovely atmosphere. The rooms are a bit disappointing - neither modern and pretty nor true to the age of the building (except one room - Mõisahärra tuba). From the outside it's amazing though.

Very good place to stop for the night and breakfast. Also bigger events can be hosted here, like weddings, funerals, conferences, etc.

Peace Palace

The Peace Palace (Vredespaleis) is an administrative building and often called the seat of international law because it houses the International Court of Justice (which is the principal judicial body of the United Nations), the Permanent Court of Arbitration, the Hague Academy of International Law, and the extensive Peace Palace Library. In addition to hosting these institutions, the Palace is also a regular venue for special events in international policy and law. The Palace officially opened on 28 August 1913, and was originally built to provide a symbolic home for the Permanent Court of Arbitration, a court created to end war which was created by treaty at the 1899 Hague Peace Conference.
