City Inn 2 Bedroom Apartment next to City Hall with parking

Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed in plenty of Riga apartments over the years, and this City Inn spot on Kaļķu iela honestly caught me off guard – in a good way. When I first walked up, I’ll admit I was a bit skeptical because, you know, sometimes these “2 bedroom apartment” places are just chopped-up old buildings with paper-thin walls. But stepping inside, it actually feels like someone put real thought into making this work for travelers, not just cramming beds into rooms.

The location is what really sold me though. I mean, you’re literally a two-minute walk from City Hall – and I’m talking about the actual historic building, not some random government office. You can practically roll out of bed and be in the heart of Old Town, which is clutch if you’re planning to do the whole tourist thing without constantly calling taxis. What’s even better is that Kaļķu street itself isn’t one of those crazy busy thoroughfares that’ll keep you up all night, but it’s still connected enough that you won’t feel isolated. The parking situation deserves a mention too – honestly, finding a reliable parking spot in central Riga can be a nightmare, so having that sorted automatically is worth its weight in gold.

Here’s what I really appreciated: the apartment actually feels like an apartment, not a hotel room trying to be something it’s not. The bedrooms are properly sized (I could fully open my suitcase without doing furniture Tetris), and the kitchen has real appliances that work – not those sad mini-fridges that barely keep your water cold. The whole setup makes sense if you’re staying more than a couple nights or traveling with family, since you can actually spread out and live a bit. I stayed during shoulder season in October, and while the heating worked perfectly fine, you could hear some street noise in the mornings – nothing terrible, just the usual city sounds of people heading to work. The 8.8 rating makes sense to me; it’s not trying to be the Ritz, but it delivers exactly what it promises without any unpleasant surprises. For a 3-star place in this part of Riga, especially with parking included, it’s honestly solid value. Plus, there’s something refreshing about staying somewhere that feels more like borrowing a local’s apartment than camping out in a generic hotel room.

  I visited Jelgava Ice Sculpture Festival with my family. After this event we came to Riga. This apartment was perfect for 4 people. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. Everything was nice and clean. Our host gave very good guidelines how to find an apartment and parking place. It was easy to get keys from the key box. We were very satisfied.
