The stuff was great and the hotel is in a middle of a forest which is nice. Breakfast is good too. There are several problems: no water pressure and also the water are very hot or cold. Was really unpleasant to have a shower. The room was not clean (dirty floor) and after I complained must say it didn’t change much. There is no normal sidewalk between the buildings and therefore the mud is everywhere. The design and furniture feel ikea’s cheap. Considering also the high price - I do not think I worth a visit.

Highly recommended

Fantastic choice if you want to stay close to the Gauja National Park or the town of Cesis. Our room on the top floor was very comfortable, super clean and spacious with plenty of natural light. It was equipped with all you might need for a short stay. Breakfast was delicious and breakfast service outstanding. So was the check-in at the front desk. Big thank you to the staff. And thanks again for providing umbrellas for the length of our stay.

Once we'd decided not to purchase tickets and join the 'New Year Eve Ball', it seemed as though we we treated as second rate guests. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and a very relaxing place to take time out from our hectic travel itinerary. But, shower pressure was terrible the whole time. They acted like they would address it, but they didn't.
