Accommodation

Estonian Business School does not offer student housing, but we give you a couple of recommendations for good housing possibilities in Tallinn.

LARSEN HOUSES
Larsen Houses offer rooms of various sizes in 3 appartment houses in Tallinn.

  • Eduard House – located in Kristiine district, 23 min bus ride
  • Rocca House – located in Haabersti district, 29 min bus ride
  • Campus House – located in Nõmme district, 40 min bus ride

Larsen houses offer a selection of fully furnished rooms, including stylish lofts, cosy studios and comfortable 1-bedroom units. Free WiFi is conveniently waiting for you. Larsen offers 24/7 customer support and will take care of any issue you may have with your room during your stay. Larsen offers spacious community spaces, fun events, fitness classes (free of charge). They care about having as little bureaucracy as possible so you can book and pay via website.

PRIVATE HOUSING
Other real estate sites for private appartments:
www.kv.ee
www.city24.ee

It’s possible to find housing through real estate sites. Do remember, that often there is a fee for booking the place, usually one month’s rent. Be aware of scammers! We highly recommend contacting our ESN EBS (International Club) for help in navigating the market. They can also go and check the apartment out before you rent it or make any payments.

FACEBOOK
There is a Facebook group for Erasmus+/exchange students, that rent out rooms/apartments for short term. Many of our students have found a suitable place through that group. Once again, be aware of scammers and use the help of our ESN EBS (International Club).

Social and extracurricular activities

Erasmus Student Network (ESN) EBS
ESN EBS is part of EBS Student Council. ESN EBS will contact you directly before your exchange period starts, to offer you guidance, information and to connect you with other exchange students. Every exchange student has the option to get a tutor/buddy by ESN EBS. A tutor is an EBS student who will help exchange students with all the practical everyday matters during their stay in Tallinn. ESN EBS also organizes different events for the exchange students during the semester.
EBS exchange students can also participate in ESN Tallinn activities,.

Tallinn as a city
Tallinn has a lot of different museums, concerts and festivals. There are restaurants for every palate. Nature is part of Tallinn, be it a swim in the sea or a calming walk in our endless parks. In year 2025 we are also the European Sports Capital and in the summer of 2025 a huge traditional song festival takes place. You can find more information on official Visit Tallinn webpage.

Our staff members are also always eager to share their favourite places in Tallinn, so feel free to ask them for recommendations!

Climate

Fall semester

Late August

Late January
🌡️ −8°C to 21°C

A mild, sunny end-of-summer quickly shifts into a long winter. By November temperatures often fall below freezing, with frequent snow, icy sidewalks, and very limited daylight in December and January.

Spring semester

Early February

Mid-Late June
🌡️ −6°C to 22°C

Winter remains dominant in February, but daylight returns fast. Spring is brief yet refreshing, leading into pleasantly warm early-summer days in June, great for enjoying the Baltic coastline.

Summer School

August
🌡️ 14°C to 23°C

Comfortably warm and relatively dry. Long daylight hours fuel lively outdoor activities, though evenings can still feel cool near the sea.
