— The hotel
Art deco new apartment in the centre of Riga
First Impressions
Walking up to Art deco new apartment in the centre of Riga, you immediately notice how the building’s classic facade blends seamlessly with the neighborhood’s architectural character. The entrance feels more like stepping into a carefully curated residential building than a typical hotel — which, honestly, is exactly what makes this three-star property so appealing. There’s something refreshingly authentic about the whole setup that you don’t get with chain hotels. The attention to detail in the building’s design creates an inviting atmosphere from the moment you arrive.
Location & Neighborhood
The location on Avotu iela is actually brilliant if you know Riga at all. You’re right in that sweet spot where you can walk to Old Town in about ten minutes, but you’re not dealing with the tourist crowds right outside your door. I mean, couples rate this place incredibly highly (and I can see why) — there’s something romantic about having your own little corner of the city while still being close to everything. The fact that recent guests gave the location a 9.0 rating tells you everything you need to know about how well-positioned this place is. The neighborhood offers the perfect balance of accessibility and tranquility.
The Apartment Experience
What sets this apart from your typical hotel room is that you’re getting a proper apartment experience. The art deco styling isn’t just a marketing gimmick — there are genuine period touches that make the space feel special without being overly themed. You’ve got room to actually spread out, which is rare in city center accommodations. The apartment setup means you can grab groceries from the local markets and have breakfast at your own pace, or just enjoy having space to relax between exploring the city. The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing your own meals, adding to the residential comfort.
Practical Perks
Here’s something that’ll save you headaches — they actually have private parking on site. If you’ve ever tried to park in central Riga, you know this is worth its weight in gold. Most places in this area either don’t offer parking or charge ridiculous fees for it. The whole setup feels thoughtfully planned rather than thrown together, from the parking situation to how the apartment is equipped for longer stays. This level of consideration extends throughout the entire property.
Why Guests Love It
The 8.8 rating really reflects what you get here — it’s not trying to be something it’s not, but what it does, it does well. You’re getting that local living experience that couples especially seem to love, with the reliability and cleanliness you expect from a well-run accommodation. The combination of the central location, the space to breathe, and those thoughtful touches like the parking make it feel like you’ve found a hidden gem rather than just booked another hotel room. It’s the kind of place where you actually feel settled rather than just passing through. Guests consistently praise the authentic character and welcoming atmosphere.
