Fantastic stay

The hotel is fantastic. The room was comfortable, clean and spacious. The spa is excellent and on an evening 7-10pm only over 16s are allowed in which made it more relaxing. The breakfast had a huge selection and very tasty. Would love to stay again.

Nebojsha, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Everything about the hotel was excellent except the spa area. We paid extra to use the facility however only used it twice as it was very noisy with people talking loudly and young children splashing about in the pool. Not a relaxing spa experience at all

Beautiful!

My husband and I were there last weekend and we loved it! Everything was 5*, from check in to check out, just amazing. Very kind staff, the receptionist was very helpful! Beautiful big rooms, beautiful building, great SPA! The breakfast was one of the best ever with champagne served, the pastry section was amazing. We just loved everything about this hotel!
Violeta, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The spa was disappointing as there were toddlers in the jacuzzi using it as a swimming pool so you could not get in . The middle room for breakfast is very canteen like which is a pity . Breakfast was amazing- the rooms are spacious. We had a lovely weekend so central.
Ann Marie, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a relaxing stay at this cozy and charming hotel with polite staff and within walking distance to the all great things in Riga. We had a minor issue with the hotel that was an honest mistake and they apologised, took care of us and have earned our future business. We hope your stay was as good as ours.
Craig, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel in Riga

Nicely located away from the noise but 10 min walk away from the old town. Love the spa and the jr suite was an excellent size and super quiet. Staff were very helpful but, like most in Riga, not super warm. Only downside is there are not any restaurants super close if you want to eat outside the hotel. The food at the restaurant was really good though. If we came back, we’d definitely stay here again.

10/10 Exceptional

Luxurious and very elegant hotel. £30 million spent on it recently. Even standard rooms were lovely and swanky. Staff were so so nice. Walk to old town just across the park. Or trams to zoo and river. All very close by. Breakfast was amazing with so much choice. Well worth it.
