    Great place to stay in Riga!

    The room and the staff are very professional and friendly. Especially, Levs, the receptionist who is excellent example of modern thinking professionalist but working in an old fashion style. Very professional and engaged in supporting clients.

    The wifi in our room was a bit patchy for looking up next day travel plans. A fan in the room would have been great for the warm nights.

    Beautifully situated right in the heart of Riga. Lovely room, very clean and turned over every day. Comfy beds, tea and coffee facilities, fabulous shower! Breakfast included. The staff were phenomenal, offering tips for places and restaurants to visit, and just generally being incredibly friendly.

    We were warned by the impressive Old World hospitality and charm of the staff. The historic architecture and furnishing were equally as memorable. Whatever you do, don't miss the excellent breakfast.

    Only a very minor comment. The beds were a little too low and soft for our liking but fine for only a few nights stay. All down to personal taste of course.

    Great location, right in the heart of the old town. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very nice too. We had a twin room for two travellers which was nice and clean. Great value too. If you have never been to Riga I cannot recommend a visit highly enough, it is a beautiful city and this hotel is a great value base to see it from.

    Lev, the front desk manager, was extremely helpful with several requests we made during our visit. He really makes this an outstanding hotel for all guests.

    Excellent location - all main attractions in very short walking distance. Clean and comfortable rooms in old fashioned style (opening with the proper key, not card) fitting with the hotel's name and location in old townhouse. Nice touch is the availability of the computer in the lobby area to do research, print boarding cards etc. Good buffet breakfast with variety of of choices including Latvian dishes. I didn't use the restaurant as it was very busy and fully booked in the evening, which must be a good sign :) Special mention to Lev at reception, who was beyond polite, friendly and helpful with recommendations of local food/restaurants, transport links and generally a very kind, cheerful person. Being able to speak so many languages, he was making every guest feel very welcomed.

    Absolutely beautiful old building. Clean rooms, staff very friendly and professional particularly the receptionist was a gentleman called Levs who goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is as comfortable as it gets. Arguably the most approachable, friendliest, politest individual I’ve seen in my life.

    The bathroom was a bit old and not 100% clean when it comes to the shower curtain, but it wasn‘t a big problem..

    The hotel is located next to the cathedral, so in the center that you can go everywhere by foot. The staff was very friendly, some of them can also speak german. The breakfast was also very nice. The Hotel has a vintage style which is also very nice and beautiful. The price is absoloutly fair.

    Bathroom was little small, but not really something to thoroughly complain about. Towels could be newer/better.

    The recepcionist during daytime, he spoke multiple languages and was tremendously polite. Himself alone was worth the stay. The hotel is wonderfully located and the breakfast is also very good for a hotel of this kind.

    Nothing.

    The hotel was in a great location for seeing old Riga. My husband has mobility issues, but as this was so central we were able to see most of what we had planned easily due to the proximity of them. We had a small twin room, it was quite compact but was great value and absolutely fine for what we needed. The staff were all lovely, too.

    The room was dusty on the every furniture when I arrived & never been cleaned while my stay. The bed mattress is dented quite badly. My bag was opened by someone & zipper was damaged while I was out, I claimed at receptionist but no explanation from hotel.

    The location is very convenient & the size of single standard room is quite spacious.
