Jane, United Kingdom

We really enjoyed our stay. The room was very comfortable and the staff were very helpful.

Keith, United Kingdom

Hotel was very cozy and authentic. For clients with wheelchairs and baby strollers it might be challenging to climb some stairs since there are few steps to reach reception and your room (there is an elevator, however you cannot avoid stairs). However staff was very helpful and we definitely will return to this hotel. Breakfast was very very good. Perfect location. Car parking might be expensive, though on Sundays it is free 100 meters from the hotel.

눉Staff could have been a bit more welcoming. We arrived for Riga festival, but they didn't even mention it was happening! No introduction to the city, and had to ask for a map. A bit more of a welcome would have been nice!

눉This isn't really a criticism, more of an observation, as we choose to be vegans and are in the minority. However, whilst there was soya milk available, our breakfast options were very limited. The restaurant couldn't cater for us at all. However we found some great places in the city.
눇We really enjoyed our stay. The room was very comfortable and the staff were very helpful.

- • Business trip

눉Room proportion was a bit odd, very tall ceiling (because old building) which had the effect of making the room seem quite narrow, small. But quite comfortable.
눇Good choice at breakfast. Nice coffee choice of eggs etc. Great location in heart of the old town.
