BRIVIBAS RESIDENCE – STONES, free PRIVAT parking, free WIFI, self check-in Overview

BRIVIBAS RESIDENCE – STONES is tucked into a quiet corner of Brivibas gatve, just a stone’s throw from the bustling heart of Rīga’s Old Town. I remember stepping out of the parking lot—free, private, and surprisingly spacious for a city of this size—when the first rays of dawn painted the cobblestones gold. The building itself is a mix of old brick and new glass, giving it a fresh yet historic feel. You know what, the lobby’s minimalist design feels like a calm oasis after a day of exploring the maze of narrow streets like Cēsu iela and Lielā iela; inside, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee from the corner café on the same block lingers in the air.

The check‑in process is almost glitch‑free. I landed at 3 pm, so I used the self‑check‑in kiosk, which was a breeze: a quick scan of my passport via the app, a tap on the screen, and the room key slid out like a small, polite robot. The whole thing felt almost futuristic—honestly, I was impressed. The room itself is cozy, with a comfortable bed that claims to support your back in all the right places. The bedding is a bit plain, but the linens are crisp, and I swear the bed felt like a cloud of cotton. There’s a small, functional kitchenette—just a mini fridge and a kettle, which is handy if you want to heat a soup or brew a cup of tea before lunch. I noticed the noise level is quite low; the only distant hum is the city’s traffic on Brivibas gatve, and at night, the streetlights cast a warm glow on the pavement, almost like a lullaby.

Wi‑Fi is free and surprisingly fast, which is a relief because I’m a serial traveler who can’t go a day without being online. I logged in, and within seconds, my video call with my friend in Latvia was crystal clear. The free parking is a huge plus, especially during the summer when the streets are packed with tourists and the city’s main car parks are a nightmare to find. I parked my scooter at the back, and the security patrols are friendly—one of the staff even chatted with me about the best places to grab a bite near the Grand Palace. Speaking of food, the building’s location is perfect for a midnight snack: just a few minutes’ walk to the famous “Rīgas Ēdelnieks” on Rīšu iela, where the smoked fish plates are legendary. The only thing that could have been better was the room’s lighting; the overhead lamp was a bit harsh, but the natural light from the window makes up for it during the day.

Overall, BRIVIBAS RESIDENCE – STONES delivers a solid 3‑star experience without the fuss. It’s a little off the beaten path, so you’ll avoid the usual crowds, yet it’s close enough to the Old Town that you can hop on a tram and be in the city center in less than five minutes. The parking, free Wi‑Fi, and self‑check‑in add up to a hassle‑free stay. I’m not saying it’s a luxury boutique hotel, but for the price and the convenience, it’s a winner. If you’re planning a trip during the busy summer months or the Christmas markets, this place will keep you comfortable and connected, and you’ll have the freedom to explore the city knowing you have a reliable, quiet base to return to.

    Cosy apartment with 3 separate bedrooms. Has all needed kitchen equipment, really well furnished and clean. Safe free car parking behind closed gate. Price/quality is very good.
    The only downside would be that some of the windows are facing the street and you can hear trafic a little, but it is not overly loud.
