Spent 3 nights in this very clean and comfortable Hotel. Breakfast and dinner with one glass of wine was included in the price. (Nice food - the fish dishes were best.) The central location in old Riga very close to the airport bus service and central market could not be better. WiFi worked very well. The minibar had useful prices.... More

Booked this hotel for 3 nights. As our flight wasn't going to land until 10pm, I emailed the hotel in advance stating this and asking if our room could be reserved because of late arrival. The hotel replied saying this was no problem at all. However, we arrived at 11pm and were told that the hotel was full, they had... More

We choose this hotel for a weekend get-away and it was really perfect. Rooms were maybe a bit small and the view was not the best but as far as location goes this was walking distance to everything and close to the airport bus. The breakfast was excellent. It even included a glass of champagne. There was spa and fitness... More

We were forced to book a quick hotel, in an early morning arrival, because we were denied a Latvian auto rental as we did not possess a ridiculous international driver's license. Anyway, this so-called 4 star inn is a mis-representation. Every other ceiling light in our hallway was dark. The bathroom shower made closets look like a palace. Skimpy soaps,... More

Dear Bill S, All hotel staff is customer oriented and deliver quality service to our clients. Unfortunately there is no currency exchange in the hotel. As local currency is latvian lats any foreign money exchange is not possible. Although we do appreciate your review, thank you. More

We arrived as a group quite late at night, reception staff were very friendly and quickly got us checked in. Ate in the bar the first night and the food was wonderful, beer also well priced in the bar. We were given a room on the sixth floor which was a bit of a pain as these rooms appear to... More

Stayed here on a trip to Riga with friends. There were 9 of us and the staff were more than helpful to show us where to eat and drink. For the price we paid it was excellent and I would recommend it to anyone travelling for a few days. Great location - just a short walk to the old town... More

Nice hotel with small rooms, but clean and secure. Breakfast was a full buffet with Vodka and Champagne, which was a good starter!! Located inside the old city and close to all the activities. Expensive to park nearby.
