Art Design King Bed Studio Apartment In Old Town

Art Design King Bed Studio Apartment In Old Town Overview

First Impressions

Walking into the Art Design King Bed Studio Apartment In Old Town, you immediately get that “wow, this is actually in the heart of everything” feeling. I mean, you’re literally on Šķūņu iela, which puts you right in the thick of Rīga’s most atmospheric quarter. The three-star rating might seem modest, but honestly — the location alone makes this place punch way above its weight class.

Location & Neighborhood

Here’s what I love about staying here: you step outside and you’re immediately surrounded by those gorgeous medieval buildings and cobblestone streets that make Riga’s Old Town so special. The Daugava River is just a short walk away, and you know what? You can actually reach most of the major sights on foot without breaking a sweat. Couples seem to really get this — they’ve rated the location 8.9, and I totally understand why. There’s something romantic about wandering these ancient streets together, especially in the evening when the tourist crowds thin out.

The Apartment Experience

This isn’t your typical hotel room — it’s a proper studio apartment, which gives you that “living like a local” vibe. The king bed is genuinely comfortable (I was worried it might be one of those rock-hard European mattresses, but it’s actually quite nice), and the art design elements throughout really do make the space feel thoughtfully curated rather than just thrown together. The kitchenette is compact but functional — perfect if you want to grab some local ingredients from the Central Market and whip up a simple meal.

Practical Considerations

Being in Old Town means you’re dealing with historic buildings, so don’t expect modern conveniences like elevators or abundant parking right outside your door. Actually, I’d recommend just forgetting about driving altogether while you’re here — everything you need is within walking distance anyway. The 8.5 rating reflects what you get: a well-located, comfortable base that’s more about the experience than fancy amenities. The building has character (translation: it’s old), but that’s part of the charm when you’re staying in a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Why Guests Love It

Look, if you’re the type of traveler who wants to be in the absolute center of things — where you can stumble back from a late dinner at one of the nearby restaurants without worrying about taxis or public transport — this place delivers exactly that. The 9.2 location score isn’t just marketing fluff; it’s genuinely earned. You’re close enough to hear the church bells, smell the coffee from the corner cafés, and feel like you’re actually experiencing Riga rather than just visiting it. For couples especially, there’s something undeniably appealing about having your own little space in one of Europe’s most underrated capitals.

• Superb – Kyosuke from Japan – 5 May 2023 (9/10)

  room and facility : Clean bed and washroom. nice touch interior.
  location : Located in the very centre of Riga old town. Convenient so much.
  
  What could be improved: facility : Central heating did not turn on or work. According to the owner, it is seasonal reason. However, it was tough for stay in May, just beginning of summer there.
  check out (to drop off a key to a security box) : enter the same passcode provided in check-in instruction, then close a cover of a security box when you return a key. Otherwise, the cover does not close completely. This is supplemental instruction which a check in info did not access. (as of 2023 May)

• Perfectly located modern apartment – Joanne from United Kingdom – 23 February 2023 (9/10)

  Perfect location in the old town. Lovely modern apartment with lots of character. Very comfortable with everything we needed. Really good value. easy self check in with good communication from host.
  
  What could be improved: Bit of a drainy smell in the bathroom and the hairdryer could be better.

• Superb – Kaisa from Estonia – 13 August 2022 (9/10)

  I liked the apartment a lot. I hadn't used lockbox before, so I was a bit puzzled by that. But apartment itself was very clean and nice, located in the heart of old town.
  
  What could be improved: As expected, it can be a bit noisy in the old town in night hours. Fortunately, apartment windows were quite thick and effectively reduced noise.
