Monte Kristo Hotel

The Monte Kristo hotel is located in the old town and walking distance to all attractions. We were greeted warmly by the girl at the front desk. The room was spacious and the bed comfortable. The breakfast had a variety of items. Our only complaint about the Hotel Monte Kristo is how dated it is. It really could use a good renovation. The carpets were quite dirty and old and the room seemed very gloomy due to the dark colours and design of the curtains and bedspreads.

This hotel is quite close to the train station, so can save hauling your luggage over cobblestones of old Riga, and it’s cheap. The building, rooms and amenities are very dated, not nice. It’s hard climbing into the tub, because it is so high, and took forever to drain. The front desk person has some nasty attitude, and the breakfast restaurant is dungeon-like; food was ok.

Very convenient Old Town location with almost everything walkable. The hotel is old fashioned and perhaps a bit tired in some parts, but very charming. The rooms are big enough with decent storage, and the bathroom was excellent, although the shower over the bath might present a problem for some. Breakfast had a reasonable variety of hot and cold food, but some items were occasionally missing and the coffee machine was not particularly user friendly. Minor points not detracting from a good 9 day stay.

Nice but….

Staff is super nice, helpful. Walls are paper thin so you will hear everything in hallways and rooms above. Temperature of room was good on cold days but I don’t think the linens were fresh which was disturbing. Great location! Right across from public transit to airport. Super easy to get around.
