Convenient center hotel

Near the bus station and the city center, but if you have luggage is a little difficult to get there walking because of the sidewalks and stone streets. The hotel and room were clean. The room was little and the shower curtain didn’t close completely. Besides that, we enjoyed our stay.

This hotel is in a fantastic location for exploring the old town. It was clean, staff were friendly and the hotel has character. Unfortunately the hotel is very echoey - on our first night after a long day travelling we were woken up between 5am-6am because of a cleaner in the hall way making noise. Our bed was very creaky so whenever either of us moved the noise woke us, we also struggled to sleep because we could hear other guests coming and going, doors opening and closing and people talking. If it wasn’t for the noise and the lack of sleep I would say I would stay again but unfortunately that ruined it for us.

A good experience at the hotel

The room had more than enough space for one person like me. The only real downside was the minibar wasn't working and the hotel did not fixed it after i told the reception desk. They told me the hotel is upgrading the minibars.The other minor thing was the shower cabin was very tight. Otherwise i had a good experience at the hotel.

Great value hotel

Good value hotel in a great location near the 22 bus stops to and from the airport. On the edge of the old town so within walking distance of all the attractions. Staff were friendly and helpful, I paid 16 euros to extend check out from 12 to 3pm and there’s a room that you can store your luggage in. Although it’s a little dated this is a lovely clean and safe hotel. As a solo female traveller I would definitely recommend it

Perfect location!

Amazing location with a pretty big room. It was an amazing prices and super close to everywhere we wanted to go. We checked in early and got out room straight away. Breakfast was also good. Only draw back was the room had a slight sewage type smell, which was coming from outside/the street.

This hotel was in the old town of Riga and was perfect for walking around. I did book this particular hotel and paid extra so we could have a 'castle' room for my daughter. When we checked in the 'castle' room was under construction so we were not able to have this experience. Very disappointed as this was the reason I booked this hotel.
