However, most of the staff were helpful and kind. The rooms, bathroom and public rooms are well maintained and very nice. However, in the guest room it says that the water is not portable from the tap. In other hotels, when the water is not portable, hotels give you a couple of bottles of drinking water for personal consumption. However,... More

Not in the most salubrious street, but close to the river and on the corner of Riga's old city. (And before long the street will no doubt be tarted up.) Staff, as usual in this part of the world, friendly helpful and efficient - and all fluent in English of course. The hotel décor is a bit brown and gloomy,... More

The hotel is not great but it's decent for short stay. The room was clean and well maintained. The breakfast was not good but I guess you can walk a little bit to find decent place for breakfast. What I like about the hotel is the location. It's close enough to the main attraction but it is also far enough... More

I`ll advise this hotel to friends and colleagues. The location is very convenient. In Old Riga near the Daugava River, close to all the important sites of the old town, and a five-minute walking to the train and bus stations. The hotel is cozy, rooms are comfortable and clean, the bathrooms are clean, the equipment is working properly. The breakfasts... More

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

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
