A great spot for relaxing and wondering in the middle of the city. Very calm, nice and tidy...good to be there.

Such a beautiful cinema. The interior is fantastically glamorous and old fashioned luxurious with gold, marble, thick drapes, paintings and red velvet seats... And it all looks really well kept, not faded or in a state of disrepair. It doesn't show a wide variety of movies, and not necessarily the newest blockbusters, but nevertheless it was a great place to... More

The old Kino Riga, now Splendid Palace welcomes you with the charme from the good old times, the 20s and 30y of the last century.

If you like cinema it's a place. Original interior from time of silent films with tapper, and films with live translation from other languages. Interior of 19 century theatre, marble floors, paintings on walls - more like an Opera than Cinema

if you would like to see, what does it mean classical cinema - you should visit Splendid palace!!! it has been recently renovated and looks so chic... you still can watch some classical or modern films down there are very reasonable costs

The decoration inside the theatre is absolutely stunning, so elegant and ornate. We went there to see Riga Story, an interesting short film about the history of Riga, and got taken on a short guided tour before the film started since we arrived early. Our tour guide was extremely friendly though the lady at the front desk was a bit... More
