The hotel is very nice. The walks around it are something to behold. The river is especially awe inspiring. There aren't as many 'destination's to go see as a tourist but I don't see how thats the hotels fault. Great place to stay and unwind, recommend.

We got a free upgrade to a junior suite, which was lovely with a separate sitting area and a nice coffee machine. We spent a good bit of time in the spa, it was all beautifully tiled with lots of things to try. We also had massages which were wonderful and relaxing! Breakfast was delicious with a wide selection to choose from.

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.

We were really looking forward to our stay as it was my husband’s first time visiting Riga. I had seen the hotel on a previous visit & loved the location beside the park. Unfortunately - we were allocated a small, dark room at the back of the hotel that was looking directly onto the walls & windows of other rooms. If you choose this hotel, pay the extra for a room with a view. Disappointing as we were staying for 3 nights. Because of this I would not return.
