Hotels in Riga City Center, Riga

The hotel is a bit outdated but it has everything that’s needed for and it’s quite clean and spacious. The breakfast spread was quite ok. Not so far from the main bus station and quite a number of bus stops and tram stops. Walking distance from the old town.

The location is great, and taxis are readily available right outside. Using Bolt to hail a taxi in Riga is very convenient. As a Radisson brand hotel, it has everything you'd expect. The room design is quite unique, balancing practicality and visual appeal. The breakfast selection is plentiful, and the omelettes are just right 👍 Highly recommended!

The hotel environment is clean and elegant, with spacious rooms and new facilities. They provide disposable shampoo and conditioner, and the staff's service attitude is excellent. It's also very convenient to get to different attractions. Highly recommended.

Lovely old hotel within 20 mins walking distance from the old town, central market, bus station, and train station. This hotel is near a Lido restaurant that opens at 10am, the Red Line tram stations, bus stops, KGB museum. Art Nouveau district is nearer to here than old town . Loving the antique vibes. The room has creaky floor boards, but room is clean. Bathroom has basic toiletries and hair dryer. Bed mattress is firm. Bedsheets are very clean and towels are changed daily. Thanks to the friendly staff who are fast to respond. You can borrow a kettle from the reception if you need to boil hot water. Bar doesn’t open past 10pm, but you can have a drink there during the day. Restaurant was undergoing renovation when I was there. The building contains some rental apartments and companies, and you can hear sounds from the corridor (there are public WC along each corridor). This place is recommended for people who appreciate the old school vibes and don’t mind the noise of people walking past.

We only ate dinner once in the hotel.     The menu obviously thought itself very special; the food was nice, but not quite as excellent as we’d hoped.    And it was a bit overpriced.    We did find some tastier food in restaurants elsewhere in the town.   But breakfast was all very good.     Staff extremely friendly and helpful.  

I usually don't bother writing reviews, but this place had quite a few things to complain about. **Location:** It's a bit of a distance from the old town, about a 15-minute walk. However, it's conveniently located right next to a large shopping mall, making shopping and dining very easy. **First, the positives:** The room was quite spacious, just as shown in the pictures. Two complimentary bottles of mineral water were provided. Slippers and toothbrushes were available (though you had to ask the front desk for them). **Now for the downsides:** **Service:** The female front desk staff's English was very poor, making communication a real challenge. The male front desk staff (who also seemed to be working as a bartender) had an unpleasant attitude. **Facilities:** The pillows were absolutely dreadful! The filling felt like lumpy, hard cotton, making it completely impossible to sleep! **Booking & Room Setup:** When I made the booking, I clearly specified 3 adults + 1 child (9 years old). After checking in and getting to our room, we found that the sofa bed hadn't been made up, but instead, they had provided a baby crib. When we contacted the front desk, their response was that ”their booking information indicated there was a small baby in the group.” Even so, is it reasonable to expect three adults to sleep in one bed? They eventually made up the sofa bed, but only provided a single duvet. When we asked the front desk for another duvet or to swap it for a double one, we were told that housekeeping had already left (it was 6 PM at the time), and they had no idea where the blankets were... **Late Checkout:** When I inquired about a late checkout, the front desk staff pretended to check the booking, typing away on the keyboard, only to then say, ”Sorry, we're fully booked.” However, I quickly checked online myself and saw that the same room type was clearly available on Ctrip... In my opinion, a direct 'no' would have been far better than such a disingenuous charade! **Conclusion:** Based on all of this, I won't be choosing this Mercure hotel again for my next visit.

The room was clean and the facilities were good, though there was a bit of noise at night. The location is very convenient, right behind the Blackhead House. Breakfast was decent, and on our last day, since we checked out early and would miss breakfast, they even provided a takeaway (remember to arrange this the night before). It was only when checking out that we found out the bottled water on the table (not in the fridge) was extra – a bit stingy for a Hilton.

Customer recommended hotel Affordable bed is a bit soft It takes 20 minutes to walk to the old town. Next to Albert Street. Riga city is not big, it is very convenient to live here!

Slap bang in the middle of Rīga, everything is walking distance, about 15 minutes tops to either direction and all the art nouveau architecture you could desire! Furthest walk was to the Holy Trinity Church, which you have to go over the bridge, but totally worth it. This hotel is mainly closest to the Orthadox church near a huge park. Breakfast has a variety, even if you're vegan too! Was impressed that you can have plant based milk hot coffees (but machine is very slow and temperamental). Would be nice to have had some vegan sausages, but you won't go hungry. The room I had was lush, very comfortable bedding, just a shame about the view, was facing the inside of the building and carpark. I would say for a 5 star hotel, coffee facilities could have been better, they were very basic, whereas other European 5 star hotels usually have a Nespresso machine or similar. Staff very friendly and accommodating of all hours of day and night!

It's a short walk from Riga Bus Station, and the Old Town is also easily accessible on foot. If you arrive earlier than check-in, you can store your luggage first. Our room was too small, and room 801 was next to the outdoor air conditioning unit, making it a side room with no view to speak of. The breakfast selection was decent, enough to fill you up.
