Mezapark Design Apartments

Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about Mezapark Design Apartments? The neighborhood itself – I mean, you’re literally staying in what locals call the “garden city” part of Riga, and it actually lives up to that name. The moment you step off Jaunā Mežaparka iela, you’re surrounded by these beautiful early 20th-century wooden houses and tree-lined streets that feel worlds away from the tourist crowds in Old Town. The apartments themselves are honestly impressive – they’ve nailed that tricky balance between modern design and actually being livable. The interiors are sleek without being sterile (you know how some design places can feel like you’re living in a showroom?), and there’s this attention to detail that makes you think someone actually considered how real people use spaces. The kitchens are properly equipped – not just for show – and the bathrooms have that satisfying weight to the fixtures that screams quality.

What really sold me on this place, though, is how it sits in the city. You’re about a 15-minute tram ride from the center, but honestly, that’s perfect because you get to see how Rigans actually live. There’s this great little market nearby where locals shop, and if you walk toward Mežaparks (the actual park), you’ll find yourself in one of the most peaceful spots in the city – especially nice in summer when the trees are full and you can barely hear the city noise. The area gets pretty quiet at night, which is either a blessing or a curse depending on what you’re after. I loved it because you can actually get proper sleep, but if you’re looking to stumble home from bars at 3 AM, you might want to factor in taxi costs back from the center.

The service here feels more personal than your typical hotel chain – probably because it’s smaller scale, but the staff genuinely seem to know their stuff about the neighborhood. They’ll tell you which tram line is fastest depending on where you’re heading, or point you toward the better grocery store (there are two nearby, and trust me, there’s a clear winner). Parking is actually straightforward, which anyone who’s driven in Riga will tell you is basically a miracle. I stayed here in late spring when the trees were just leafing out, and I can only imagine how gorgeous it must be in full summer or during autumn when all those maples turn colors. The rating speaks for itself, really – but what that perfect 10 doesn’t capture is how this place just feels right, like someone put real thought into creating a space where you’d actually want to spend time, not just crash between sightseeing marathons.
