Nice place, parking sucked, room was average

AC did not work in room. Parking is a 6 minute walk away in an unsecured lot. It was dumping rain when we arrived late at night with our bags so having to run through the streets was a less than ideal.

I stayed twice in one week to run the Riga Marathon. First stay was to try it out and the second one was two days into the race. In the first stay, I got a noisy room which pounding against my walls early in the morning and occasionally throughout the day. I was promised a quite room in my next stay. The room was much better but i think the walks are not sound proof. I could hear snoring from the next room! Overall, the hotel is very nice and the service is great. Breakfast was very good but not the best in the area. A funny situation on checkout when they wanted to charge me for the coffee capsules that were in the free area. The staff were very helpful and make up for all of the deficiencies i saw. I did not like the smoking smell in the lobby from the bar section. The hotel is in the old town and was a 5min walking distance from the marathon start and finish lines. I could not get a taxi to leave right after the race, so don't stay there if you are not spending the night after the race. Counting everything, while no the best in class in the nearby area, i think this is a nice hotel that truly represent the spirit of an old town with the added luxury.

Treated well from the moment you step through the door, and if you get a transfer with the hotel, from the moment you get through arrivals. It is without a doubt the only place I would stay in Riga, perfect location for everything in the old town
