Classy Hotel
Lovely hotel on the edge of the old town across the road (or through the underpass) from where the 22 airport bus stops. Staff are lovely and the reception, bar and breakfast areas are beautiful. The room is quiet, tastefully decorated and comfortable and the bathroom is modern with a great shower. Breakfast was nice and set us up for the day. We made a good choice booking this hotel, would absolutely recommend and will definitely return when returning to the amazing city of Riga

Beautiful hotel close to everything
Beautiful, quiet and very well kept hotel with the best location: the hotel is close to all the sights and opera, trams and buses, including air port bus stop 100 m from the hotel´s front door. I travelled with my child and the personnel noticed him the nicest way.

Great property, excellent location and staff were very helpful. Breakfast really nice. Only thing that could be improved is to provide some complementary bottled water in the rooms - 5 euro for a bottle is pretty steep!

Enjoyable stay for our family
A charming hotel with a comfortable bed and modern interior. Breakfast was delicious. The only negative is noise from trams outside. The hotel does provide earplugs (which is a nice touch) but if you are a light sleeper, earplugs may not help.
