to get started.

Food, staff, decor, location, comfort. By sheer luck the midsummer festival was on, which was marvellous

Marian, United Kingdom

Amazing stay! Staff was lovely and helpful. Very nice breakfast and very beautiful room. Excellent position! Excellent terrace where you can eat or have a drink!

Stefano, United Kingdom

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hotel Gutenbergs. They arranged a pick-up from the airport. The staff were friendly, efficient and helpful. The room was very comfortable and delightfully charming. The buffet breakfast was extensive and tasty. The location was perfect. It was right in the Old Town centre. There were many attractions and eating places nearby. We would definitely return and we would definitely recommend the hotel to others.

Bev, Australia

Good sized room.Great breakfast-fresh fruit,hot buffet or continental style breakfast.Beautful restaurant on roof terrace.Location was perfect, close to main sights but quiet.Ask for room in old part of hotel-great timber beams add to character.

Paul, United Kingdom

all the staff were lovely and location superb ....the roof top terrace was also an added bonus...breakfast was ample and served until 10.30 am in a relaxed atmosphere

James, United Kingdom

Excellent location and terrace restaurant with locally sourced food

Aleksejs, United Kingdom

everything was excellent, we would highly recommend this hotel, and would use it for our next visit.

Robert, United Kingdom

Truly unique property. Used to be an old publishing house and they kept some of the original woodwork which makes it one of a kind. Room 405 especially unique, but keep the bathroom light on at night so you don't hit your head if you get up! :). Breakfast was great too -- lovely dining area. Rooftop restaurant was great -- thank you for the welcome drinks!!!

Overseasguru, Jordan

It's not often that I have the pleasure in staying somewhere that is, in my opinion, 100% perfect. Everything was spot-on. Apart from that I can't praise the hotel high enough. I'd recommend it to anybody and if I visit Riga again I have no doubt where I shall stay.

Kevin, United Kingdom

Excellent hotel,very friendly and helpful staff,perfect location in heart of old town,very comfortable room,standerd breakfast,but plenty of it.

John, Ireland

눉Hotel is in an old building and some of the rooms have exposed low beams, so tall guests need to take care. Similarly, because of the thick walls, our room was quite dark. Not really enough though to qualify as a dislike.
눇Welcoming staff. Excellent breakfast buffet. City centre location next to the Lutheran Cathedral. Good rooftop restaurant (this is a separate business from the hotel).

눉All breakfast items very poor quality and disappointing. At dinner in the restaurant the starter course did not arrive until 1 hour after ordering it, then the soup about 2 minutes later, followed by the main course immediately after the starter and soup were finished.
