Lillijas iela 5 can stay Free parking Park Overview

Lillijas iela 5 can stay Free parking Park sits almost right in the middle of the old town, tucked between the narrow lanes that wind around the old cathedral and the bustling market square. I remember the first time I stepped out of the building: the scent of freshly baked rye bread from the bakery on Ķīpsala street, the clatter of plates from a nearby café, and that unmistakable hum of radio news in Latvian on the street corner. It’s a place where the city breathes—soft, slow enough that you can pause and listen to the distant bells. The parking is a real win; most of the block is private, so you can leave your car for a few hours and wander the cobbles without worrying about a ticket. Just be sure to lock it—there are a few rogue scooters that love to drift around the curb.

The rooms themselves are what I’d call “comfortably simple.” 3‑star, sure, but they’re clean, with a minimalist Scandinavian vibe that feels surprisingly cosy. The bed’s memory foam is a bit firmer than my usual, but the sheets are crisp and the quilt on the nightstand is a soft, warm hug in the chilly October evenings when you’re just getting used to the Baltic wind. The bathroom has a shower that’s not a whirlpool but does a decent job of leaving the water in a steady, soothing stream. I also liked the small touch of local character—the framed postcard of the Freedom Monument on the wall, a tiny ceramic mug from the local pottery collective in the kitchen. Check‑in was straightforward; the front desk staff were friendly, and they gave me a quick rundown of the city’s “hidden” spots: the tiny jazz bar on Tērbatas street, the coffee shop that sells hand‑rolled lattes and locally roasted beans, and the best place to grab a sandwich just before 3 p.m. when the lunch crowd starts to thin.

Sound-wise, the hotel’s location is a sweet spot. It’s close enough to the city centre that you hear the occasional street performer, yet far enough that the night‑time traffic doesn’t become a constant buzz. I was in the middle of a busy summer afternoon and the lobby was filled with the flicker of sunlight and the murmur of guests, but the walls are thick enough that you can’t hear the rumble of the tram on the street below. In the evenings, the area around the hotel transforms: the cafés dim their lights, a couple of street lamps flick on, and the old stone pavement takes on a gentle glow. If you’re planning to stay during the Christmas market season, you’ll want to get there early in the morning because the streets get packed by 8 a.m. and the shops open their windows with festive light. For winter, the snow‑covered cobbles add a quiet calm that’s perfect for a long walk to the river and back.

Honestly, I’d say it’s the kind of place that doesn’t feel like a generic tourist trap. It’s a slice of everyday Riga, with all its quirks and charm. The free parking is a lifesaver, the rooms comfortable, the staff approachable, and the location is a quiet oasis that still lets you feel the city’s pulse. If you’re looking for a simple, authentic base in the heart of Latvia’s capital, this is a solid pick. It’s not flashy, but it’s real—you’ll leave with the smell of rye bread still lingering, a memory of the city’s hum, and maybe a new favorite mug from that pottery shop. That’s the kind of travel experience that turns a stay into a story you can share over coffee later on.

Reviews of Lillijas iela 5 can stay Free parking Park

• Highly recommended for Budget Friendly Stay with Family – Amir from Ireland – 5 June 2025 (8/10)

  We’ve rented from this owner several times now in Riga, staying in different apartments, and each time has been a great experience. This one was no exception—clean, tidy, and well-maintained with everything you need in both the kitchen and bathroom.
  
  The apartment is basically a 1-bedroom layout, with a double bed in the bedroom and two sofa beds in the sitting room, making it ideal for a family stay. Plenty of space, cozy atmosphere, very quite and very practical for a few days or even a longer visit.
  
  The location is also a big plus—close to bus and tram stations, with a Maxima supermarket just around the corner, and not far from the city center. Easy to get anywhere in Riga.
  
  All in all, it’s the complete package at a very reasonable price. Great value, great location, and a reliable owner we’re always happy to book with. Highly recommended!
  
  What could be improved: Honestly everything there is fine but I really suggest the owner to get the Sofa beds fixed.
  They looks ok but very squeaky, whenever you take a turn or move a muscle even in night.

• Very good – C from Sri Lanka – 5 July 2025 (8/10)

  Place is comfortable:easy accessibility to key makes it convenient to enter and exit with ease. TV facility and other amenities made us feel homely
  Closer proximity to the city was another advantage making taxi fee bare minimum
  All in all it was ideal for our family to make our stay pleasant and comfortable
  
  What could be improved: The wash room needs a better system to make it more hygienic with proper exhaustion outlet
  Lack of a key to washroom too needs to be looked into to provide privacy
