Charming spacious 3 bedroom in Old Town

Charming spacious 3 bedroom in Old Town Overview

Charming spacious 3 bedroom in Old Town sits at Laipu iela 2-2a, and honestly, it feels like a secret in the heart of Riga. I parked just outside the building—there’s a little shed with a couple of spots that locals swear by, and the key is folded into a tiny card taped to the side of the door, so you don’t have to wait for a front desk person (although you’ll get a friendly wave from a staff member if you ask for directions). The check‑in was quick, but the real magic happened when the receptionist handed me a small brochure that had a hand‑written note about the best coffees on Aizkraukles iela and the best late‑night snack at the corner bistro. I mean, it’s the little details that make a stay feel like home.

The apartment itself is a three‑bedroom gem, with a living area that opens onto a tiny balcony overlooking the cobbled lanes of Old Town. The décor is a mix of boho chic and classic Latvian touches—think linen curtains, a wooden coffee table with a cracked pattern, and a vintage lamp that casts a warm glow over the couch. The bedrooms are surprisingly roomy; the master comes with a king‑size bed that feels like sleeping on a cloud, and the two other rooms have twin beds that are perfect if you’re traveling with a friend or family. The bathroom is clean and modern, with a rain shower that’s a real treat after a day of wandering. The kitchen is fully stocked, and I was pleasantly surprised by the built‑in espresso machine—great for that mid‑morning caffeine fix.

When it comes to sound, the building is pretty quiet—there’s a decent soundproofing, so you won’t hear the traffic from the neighboring streets. But if you’re an early bird, the city’s nightlife can start whistling by 10 p.m., so maybe bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. The best part is that you can step outside and be right in the middle of the old town’s buzz: a few steps away you’ll find the famous Riga Central Market, its stalls humming with fresh fish and local cheeses, and a short walk brings you to the Daugava River promenade where you can watch the boats drift under the old bridges. In the evenings, the narrow streets are lined with tiny bars and cafés that spill onto the sidewalks—just place a mug of Latvian coffee in your hand and let the city’s rhythm take over.

During my stay, I noticed a small, hidden courtyard behind the building that locals use for a quiet morning yoga class—there’s a sign that says “Free Yoga 6 a.m.” if you’re up for it. The building’s parking is limited, so I parked in the alley behind the hotel and walked a few minutes to the apartment. If you’re traveling with a car, be prepared to park in a nearby street or use the municipal parking lots; they usually offer a discount for guests with a hotel confirmation. The hotel also has a small storage room for luggage if you arrive early or leave late—super handy when you’re trying to get a good night’s sleep before a long day of sightseeing.

All in all, staying at Charming spacious 3 bedroom in Old Town felt like having a home base in the middle of Riga’s historic heart. The blend of cozy, practical amenities and the authentic, almost off‑the‑beaten‑path vibe of the neighborhood made it a memorable part of my trip. If you’re planning a visit, I’d say book early—especially during the summer months when the city’s foot traffic peaks, and the streets buzz with festivals and street performers. Trust me, you’ll be glad you did.
