Evena Travel Apartment

Evena Travel Apartment Overview

Evena Travel Apartment sits snugly on Antonijas iela, right where the city’s old charm meets the buzz of modern Riga. Walking out of the front door, you almost feel like you’ve stepped into a living room of a long‑time resident’s home instead of a hotel. The building itself is a 1970s brick block that’s been thoughtfully refreshed—plaster now feels smooth, but you can still catch the faint echo of the original concrete walls when you’re on the quiet side of the apartment. I’d say the first thing you notice is the smell of fresh coffee wafting from the tiny espresso machine tucked under the kitchen counter, a little perk that instantly makes the space feel lived in.

Check‑in is a relaxed affair. There’s a small kiosk with a keycard terminal that hands you a card in about a minute, but if you’re a bit nervous, a friendly receptionist will pop out to help you out—no long lines or stiff smiles. They’re open from 3 p.m., so if you arrive early, the lobby’s a cozy spot to wait with a latte. Parking is a bit of a challenge, as there’s no dedicated garage, but you can snag a spot on the street for free a block away, just watch the signs for the “no parking after 7 p.m.” rule. As for noise, the main street is lively—bus horns, the murmur of people on the sidewalk—but the apartment’s soundproofing is decent. I found myself drifting off to the gentle hum of the city at night, with only the occasional distant siren breaking the silence.

The real magic, though, is how close you’re to everything that locals actually hang out at. A five‑minute walk takes you to Riga Central Market, where vendors shout out their wares and the air is thick with the scent of pickled herring and fresh rye bread. If you’re craving a stroll, the Old Town is a short hop away—just cross the bridge over the Daugava and you’re in the heart of the historic district, with cobblestones that feel like a time machine. For a quieter afternoon, you can head to the Freedom Monument, which is about a kilometer away; the plaza is a favorite for locals to unwind with a cold beer on a sunny day. And if you’re in the mood for a quick bite, there’s a small café on Pils Street that serves the best rye toast in town—trust me, you’ll be back for the second slice. All in all, staying at Evena Travel Apartment feels like having a reliable, well‑placed friend in the city’s midst, ready to share insider tips and keep you comfortable without any of the usual hotel stiffness.

Early hotels booking in Riga requires advance planning during peak cultural seasons when visitors flock to enjoy the city’s magnificent architecture and vibrant arts scene.

  Everything was absolutely perfect. Communication with the owner was very good, he bought straight away a heater when I complained that air-condition was not given enough warmth. Anytime I'll be in Riga I will stay there. On the pic is a view from the window.

  We loved here everything. Very responsive and polite host (lives next door and speaks English/Russian). Ther room is in old authentic and historic wooden building in central part if Riga. The room is totally renovated and very well equipped (coffee/tea and even sweets included). And it looks better and bigger than in photos. The parking is very safe in inner yard with closed gates. Very good and strong wifi signal and TV with plenty of channels. Easy and even flexible check in/out. Definetely will be nack next time in Riga!
