Hotel Irina is only a 5-10 minute walk from the bus and train station. There are many cheap eateries within easy walking distance from the hotel and the old town area is also only a 10 minute walk from hotel. However it is located on a very busy noisy street that does not get quiet at night. As there was... More

The hotel is situated right nearby to the main train station and in the walking distance from the Old Town. The central location of the hotel and the cleanliness are the main advantages of the hotel. Rooms are not very big. I was in two of them. Actually the room for a single person is tiny - not more than... More

If you're looking for the pristine glimmer of cold steel and shiny glass and have not problems laying out $200-300 a night for it - there are several candidates in Riga. This is NOT one of them. Just a short walk from the main train and bus stations, Hotel Irina is a warm, hospitable, European style hotel perfectly located to... More

Good hotel in the city center. Nothing special, but great for those travelling on a budget. The breakfast did not convince but the room was nice. Location was perfect and in general Riga is worth a visit.

Hotel directly across from Riga Central railway station. Ideal for stopovers on epic railway journeys between places like Tallinn and Vilnius. Room basic and clean, bathrooms new, good free wifi. Decent breakfast buffet, breakfast starts at 08.00 and the breakfast room fills up quickly. If you need something earlier, McDonalds across the street opens at 07.00, as do a couple... More

I have to agree with the other positive posts on this hotel. A good option with an affordable price tag! Clean and comfortable with an excellent breakfast of cold meats, fresh fruits, coffee, cereal and cooked eggs, sausages all served from 8am. Situated centrally (catch the 22 bus to/from the airport which stops close by) and easy walking distance to... More

Very positive experience at this little hotel. When approaching the hotel, the area you find yourself in is a bit...bleugh...as it's directly across from the train station, and faces a busy road in central Riga. However, literally 4-5 minutes walk in one direction, you'll find the Old Town, and 4-5 minutes walk in the other direction is the area of... More

We stayed in this hotel for one night. The location is great: right in the city center. The main train and bus stations are across the road, walk to the Old city takes about 10 minutes. Shopping malls and restaurants are within walking distance. The room is small but neat and clean. It was a little bit noisy but totally... More
