Apart Hotel Tomo FREE PARKING

Hotel Description

You know what caught me off guard about Apart Hotel Tomo? The name literally tells you the best part right upfront – that free parking is honestly a game-changer in Riga. I mean, anyone who’s driven around the city center knows what a nightmare (and expense) parking can be, so having a guaranteed spot waiting for you feels like winning the lottery.

The location on Raunas iela is actually pretty clever if you think about it. You’re far enough from the tourist chaos of Old Town that you can get a decent night’s sleep, but close enough that a quick tram ride or even a long walk gets you to all the main sights. The neighborhood has this lived-in feel – there’s a grocery store practically next door, and you’ll see locals going about their daily routines rather than crowds of tourists snapping photos every five minutes. It’s the kind of area where you can grab coffee in the morning without feeling like you’re paying tourist prices for everything.

The aparthotel setup works well for people who want a bit more space than your typical hotel room offers. I stayed in one of their units and – look, it’s not going to win any design awards – but everything you need is there and it’s clean. The kitchen area was surprisingly functional; I actually used it a few times instead of eating out every meal, which my wallet definitely appreciated. The 7.2 rating feels about right honestly – it’s solid without being spectacular. You might notice some signs of wear here and there, and the WiFi can be a bit temperamental (welcome to Latvia, right?), but nothing that ruins your trip. The staff speaks decent English and they’re helpful with local recommendations, which I always appreciate more than generic tourist pamphlets.

What really sold me on the place was how quiet it gets at night. Raunas iela isn’t a main thoroughfare, so you don’t have traffic noise keeping you up, but you’re also not stuck in some dead zone where nothing’s happening. During summer evenings, you can hear people chatting as they walk by, maybe some music drifting from apartment windows – it’s that perfect urban soundtrack that makes you feel like you’re actually experiencing the city rather than just visiting it. The three-star rating is fair; this isn’t luxury but it’s comfortable and practical. Plus, did I mention the free parking? Because in Riga, that alone bumps up the value significantly.

  W-fi on the 6th floor did not work at all. It worked only on the first floor.

• A decent hotel, is value for money, has room for improvement. – K from United Kingdom – 7 November 2022 (7/10)

  Very responsive staff, on the first day I noticed thet the water in shower was going down too slowly, it was Sunday. I told the receptionist about this and the next morning it got sorted.
  
  What could be improved: Cleanliness wasn't that good. At the bottom of the shower doors was a lot of limescale build up. The drain hole in the bathroom floor smelled. Once, I left the bathroom door open, I returned to a smelly room that day. Also, I stayed for a week and despite a daily housekeeper's visit more and more dust that eventually turned into clumps kept appearing in an easily accessible spot next to my bed.
