Hotel is in a quiet area about 20 mins walk from the old town. The outside and reception areas look nice. The room was ok but in need of some decoration. Comfy bed and I slept well. The shower head didn’t fit the holder which wasn’t convenient and there was no plug for the sink. Breakfast choice was limited although what food was there was ok. For the price it suited my needs for a couple of nights.

I really liked my stay here. I was on the top floor and it was always quiet. My room overlooked a street but there was never any traffic noise because the "traffic circle" was blocked so the road basically ended. The only vehicles you would see were taxis. The windows were nice and opened wide. Front desk staff were wonderful. I couldn't open my room safe and an employee came up in 10 minutes as promised. Breakfast was the same everyday but that was ok...the only thing was the egg custard--though good--was barely warm to downright cold all of the time. The room was pretty roomy and the bathroom was super nice. I have read other reviews saying the neighborhood was sketchy. To me it wasn't that way at all--it only looked that way because it was old in the area. I walked the area at all hours and never had one problem. The trams and busses were only a block or two away.

Terrible breakfast

Receptionists were very friendly and helpful at the hotel. But breakfast was terrible. The members of staff at breakfast were tired, unhappy and unhelpful. The male member of staff said in Russian’ I can’t wait for everyone to be out of here”. They were moving slowly, not filling food, cups and plates on time. I had to ask for cups, plates, food and wait for everything for a while. But that’s their work. Staff should make sure that breakfast is available for everyone. Staff don’t care.

The hotel is located right beside one of the biggest buildings in Riga so it's easy to get your bearings if you're walking. It's VERY close to Old town and all the markets. And there is a nice restaurant right in the hotel.

Hotel in a perfect location,not far from old town and many attractions.Nice and clean,great room. However-had to keep asking for a cup in my room for a coffee,as it doesn’t get replaced and if you want more than one drink-you’ve had it as 1 sachet of coffee per day!! Also not a big enough dining area-if you ask where to go when it’s full-staff in restaurant just shrug their shoulders-I heard that the banquet room upstairs can be used-but it was locked. Would be 5 stars but for the things I’ve mentioned.

Billed as a spa hotel I would have expected to be able to use the facilities free of charge as I was a paying guest but there was an additional charge. Apparently there was only a sauna and a steam room of which I used neither. The room was OK but the quilt didn't cover the whole bed so we had to get the spare out of the wardrobe and it didn't have a cover on it. When I asked at reception for a cover they did immediately send one to the room for me to put on myself. The breakfast was adequate and top marks to the hotel for opening the restaurant early on the Sunday for those taking part in the marathon weekend.
