Stayed here for one night. Lovely stuff and the hotel felt true to the original old town aesthetics. Walking distance to everything you are in riga for and a 2min walk from the bus stop that will take you to and from the airport

The building has lots of character, but my room was nothing like the room pictured. There was noise from the street due to a venue open until 2am opposite, room noise from other guests at similar times & I explicitly asked for a room away from noise, eg stairs & lifts. They put me opposite the lift & next to the stairs. Whilst the stay wasn't terrible, the fantastic Riga experience was spoiled somewhat by all the above, plus them having a full facade renovation (building works) at the time, they didn't notify me of. Not a disaster, but the worse bit of Riga for me.

The architecture was beautiful. The too was a good size & the hotel was quiet. Breakfast was excellent. Everything was within walking distance of most historic sites. The bus to the airport is right behind the hotel making it very convenient. Staff was excellent & Kitty was especially helpful. The bed could use some fluffy pillows as the ones on the bed were flat. Otherwise, I had a wonderful time in this incredible City & I shall return in the future.

Difficult.
Difficult stay. Was given room 316. It’s located in the staircase. Very strange. The WiFi did not reach that room very well at all. Often had no WiFi. The room was much smaller than I selected on hotels.com. Was moved to the room type I book for the second night. It was the size I had booked. Wi-Fi worked well. This hotel needs to update all its traditional rooms. They are feeling very dated.

Nice property but over priced. Room was too small, I could not place a chair between the bed and the desk.alao, the room location involved taking the stairs to get to another elevator. In addition, the staff manually entered my credit card information in the system as a security deposit for mini bar usage. I wouldn't stay there again.

Fantastic price for good-size rooms and extremely-walkable distances to interesting old town landmarks. We barely had to use any public transit to get around it was so well-located, so it was extremely convenient and a great value for an interesting old building!

Breakfast was excellent, as was the desk help. Might need a little refreshing, as the bed creaked with every move, and the carpet looked as it’s seen some wear. But overall, thriller with my stay.

Not so good stay this time.
No access to bed from sides and had to crawl in from bottom, tiny shower and very little room to move, shower seal worn and flooded floor, no sachets of coffee anymore, tiny tv with 3 stations not worth watching, breakfast average. Won’t use this hotel again.
