ANNA Riga Apartment

Hotel Description

You know what caught me off guard about ANNA Riga Apartment? Walking up to this place on Brīvības iela, I was expecting just another generic apartment rental – but honestly, the moment I stepped inside, it felt like someone actually cared about creating a real home away from home. The entrance has this warm, residential vibe that immediately puts you at ease, and I mean that in the best way possible. It’s right there on one of Riga’s main arteries, which sounds intimidating but actually works in your favor – you’re literally a five-minute walk from the Freedom Monument and maybe ten from Old Town, but the building itself sits back just enough that you don’t get hammered by street noise all night.

The apartment itself is where things get really good. I’ve stayed in plenty of four-star places that felt cold and impersonal, but this one actually feels lived-in (in a good way). The kitchen is properly equipped – I’m talking real cookware, not those flimsy pans you usually find in rentals – and there’s decent counter space if you want to grab some of those amazing vegetables from the Central Market and actually cook something. The living area has these big windows that let in incredible light during those long Baltic summer days, and even in winter, the place feels bright and airy. What really impressed me was the attention to small details: proper hangers in the closet, extra blankets that are actually soft, and – this might sound silly – but the Wi-Fi actually works everywhere in the apartment, which is rarer than you’d think.

Location-wise, you’re in this sweet spot where locals actually live and work. There’s a great little café called Miit just around the corner that serves proper coffee (not tourist coffee), and you’re close enough to the Daugava that you can walk down to the river when you need a break from the city energy. The 9.5 rating honestly makes sense once you’re there – it’s not trying to be fancy, but everything just… works. Check-in was smooth, the place was spotless, and I never felt like I was staying in some sterile hotel box. If you’re the type who wants to feel like you’re actually living in Riga for a few days rather than just passing through, this is your spot. Just don’t expect a concierge or daily housekeeping – this is about having your own space in a city that’s definitely worth taking your time to explore properly.

Reviews

• Exceptional – Purcell from United States – 1 July 2025 (10/10)

  The location was near old Town, walking distance to the freedom monument.
  
  What could be improved: Weather at time was a little wet.

• Superb – Darlene from United States – 24 April 2025 (9/10)

  The apartment was great for our family, especially with all the toddler amenities (crib, high chair, toys, etc.). We also appreciate the central location and the kindness of our host.

• Perfect base to explore Riga – Martin from United Kingdom – 2 December 2024 (10/10)

  Big spacious apartment, perfect with a toddler who wanted to roam. Beds were comfy and the flat lovely and warm and nicely decorated. The host ,Anna and her father, Valery, were helpful and on hand for any needs via the phone. The Old town is a 15 min walk or a 5 min bus.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing

• Exceptional – Pierre from France – 3 November 2024 (10/10)

  Great place to stay and discover the town !

• Excellent flat – as long as it’s not too hot – Arun from United Kingdom – 14 July 2024 (9/10)

  The location is great. Lots of things nearby and easy access to the old town. Very big apartment with plenty of space
  
  What could be improved: No fans or air conditioning make it quite hot in very warm weather. The kitchen though well stocked only had on breakfast bowl. Shower was a little moldy.

• Exceptional – Erki from Estonia – 10 January 2024 (10/10)

  It's a beautiful and comfortable apartment at superb location at the center of the city. Just a small walk away from old town or Alberta iela. Beds are comfortable, living room is nice for sitting around and kitchen is very well equipped. You have beautiful view to more than 100 years houses from windows or small balcony. Children really liked an old style elevator. There is parking house next to Gertrudes church. We staid during coldest time of winter and it was still warm inside. Just a note if it's cool at first you have to rise curtains to windowsill to open up radiators and keep the colder air outside of room.

• A perfect short break in Riga – Mark from United Kingdom – 27 September 2023 (10/10)

  Perfect location – just across the road from the KGB Cornerhouse, and a couple of minute walk to Raddison Blu (Skybox) and the Old Town. We'll certainly return.

• Superb – Liene from Sweden – 18 August 2023 (9/10)

  This is the second but definitely not the last time we are staying in this appartment. We love it! The apparment is spacy and cozy with a balcony. The owner of the appartment is very nice, easy to communicate with and flexible if check in needs to be adjusted. Location is great – close to everything.
  
  What could be improved: The only con with the appartment is that it is quite noisy because it is located on the corner of the main street in Riga – a lot of traffic, motorbikes and ambulances. But with a pair of good ear plugs you can still sleep like a baby 🙂

• Exceptional Comfortable Stay Kind Host Excellent Location – Zhena from Poland – 29 May 2023 (10/10)
