GREEN Apartment

Hotel Description

You know what surprised me about GREEN Apartment? It’s actually tucked away on this quiet residential street in Riga that most tourists never stumble across, but somehow it works perfectly. Akmeņu iela feels like you’re staying in a proper neighborhood instead of some sterile hotel district – I mean, there’s a little corner shop literally two minutes away where the owner started recognizing me by day three, and honestly, that’s the kind of thing that makes a trip memorable.

The apartment itself is one of those places that punches way above its three-star rating. I walked in expecting basic accommodations and instead found this surprisingly well-thought-out space that actually feels like someone’s home (in the best way possible). The kitchen isn’t just for show – it’s got everything you’d actually need if you want to grab groceries from the nearby Rimi and cook a proper meal. The living area has this lived-in comfort that’s hard to fake, and the bedroom was quiet enough that I never heard street noise, which is saying something since Riga can get pretty lively. What really got me was the little touches – decent coffee in the cupboard, proper hangers in the closet, and bathroom toiletries that weren’t the usual industrial stuff.

Location-wise, you’re about a fifteen-minute walk from Old Town, which sounds far but honestly isn’t – and you’ll appreciate having a quiet retreat after dealing with the crowds around Town Hall Square. The tram stop on Brīvības iela is maybe seven minutes away, so getting around is actually easier than staying right in the center where everything’s pedestrian-only. I found myself walking past these beautiful Art Nouveau buildings every day, and there’s something about experiencing Riga from a residential perspective that feels more authentic than the usual tourist bubble. The area comes alive in the evenings when locals are heading home from work, and you get this nice sense of the city’s actual rhythm. Fair warning though – if you’re the type who needs to stumble back to your hotel at 2 AM, you’ll want to remember your route because this neighborhood definitely quiets down after midnight. But that 9.1 rating makes sense once you spend a few days here; it’s the kind of place where everything just works without any fuss, and sometimes that’s exactly what you need.

Reviews

• Superb – Andris from Latvia – 12 May 2025 (9/10)

  Small but very cozy and sweet apartment, everything needed provided.
  
  What could be improved: I wouldn't recommend this place for tall people, the ceiling between the room and the kitchen is very low and even dangerous if you are taller than about 180 m. I am 177 and wanted always to duck down when passed it.

• Exceptional – Jirapa from Germany – 21 April 2025 (10/10)

  nice place and Host 😀

• Highly recommended – Anastasiia from Ukraine – 25 January 2025 (9/10)

  Perfect location near the National Library. Good communication with the owner. Cute and cosy apartment. Very clean. You have everything you need for staying. There are a lot of small things and you can feel at home. Highly recommended.
  
  What could be improved: A bit noisy neighbours above but it did not disturbed us.

• Great value for the price paid – Loreta from Latvia – 17 December 2024 (10/10)

  The apartment is small but very cozy, with lots of thoughtful details. It suited our needs perfectly. Short walk away from the Old Town, easy to park a car and get anywhere in the city. WiFi worked seamlessly. I'd happily return anytime.

• Cosy little gem 🙂 – Anna from United Kingdom – 18 November 2024 (9/10)

  Great little apartment with walking distance to old town 🙂 Less than 5 mins walk to National Library- not far away from public transport. Cosy interior design , bit hidden , but once found easy to get in 🙂
  
  What could be improved: Unfortunately the upstairs neighbours were really loud every single night even at 3-4:00 am 🙁

• Superb – Vaiva from Lithuania – 3 November 2024 (9/10)

  We had a wonderful stay at this cozy apartment. The location is excellent, and we were pleasantly surprised to find snacks and all the essentials for cooking. Communication with the owner was smooth and efficient. The floor heating was particularly impressive and added to our comfort.
  
  What could be improved: The apartment was a bit dark inside and could have been more spacious.

• Would recommend to a friend – Kristel from Estonia – 2 November 2024 (10/10)

  The location was super, it was quiet, very clean and neat. The shower was amazing (compared to a lot other places while travelling). Everything went smooth
  
  What could be improved: At first it was a bit hard to find while there are no signs or labels but that was also a blessing later to feel safe and incognito 🤞🏼

• Very good location and very new and clean apartment – Egla from Albania – 28 October 2024 (10/10)

  The location was perfect, just few minutes from the city centre and the national library. In addition the apartment had all facilities including tea coffee toys for my kid and many more. I was very happy with the room
  
  What could be improved: The façade was under renovation since it was very old
