MIRO Rooms Center – quiet chic, self check-in

Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed at a lot of places in Riga’s center, and MIRO Rooms honestly surprised me in the best way. The whole “quiet chic” thing in their name? They’re not kidding around. You’re right on Krišjāņa Barona – which, if you know Riga at all, puts you literally steps from all the Art Nouveau madness on Alberta iela, but somehow this fourth-floor spot feels like a completely different world once you’re inside. The self check-in thing had me skeptical at first (I mean, what if something goes wrong?), but it’s actually brilliant. No awkward small talk when you roll in at 11 PM, no waiting around for anyone – just grab your code, head up, and you’re in.

The apartment itself has this really thoughtful design that doesn’t try too hard, you know? Everything’s clean and modern without being sterile, and honestly, the soundproofing is incredible. I was expecting street noise – Barona can get pretty lively, especially on weekends – but I slept better here than I have in some countryside hotels. The kitchen setup is smart too, not just some token mini-fridge situation. You can actually cook if you want, which is perfect because there’s a Rimi just a few minutes away, and honestly, grabbing some local bread and cheese for breakfast beats hotel continental buffets every time. What really got me though was the attention to small details – good water pressure (trust me, this matters), decent WiFi that doesn’t cut out every ten minutes, and windows that actually open properly so you can get some fresh air without the whole room heating up.

The location is sort of perfect for how I like to explore cities. You’re close enough to walk to Old Town in about ten minutes, but you’re in the actual neighborhood where people live and work. There’s this little café called Miit just around the corner that locals actually go to – not tourist prices, great coffee, and they make these pastries that’ll ruin your diet plans. The 9.5 rating makes total sense once you’ve been there; it’s not trying to be a luxury resort or anything, but everything it does, it does really well. My only minor complaint? The building’s entrance is a bit tricky to find if you’re arriving after dark – it’s not super well-lit from the street. But that’s honestly pretty typical for Riga’s older buildings, and once you know where you’re going, it’s fine. If you want something that feels more like staying in a really nice local apartment than a generic hotel room, and you don’t need someone at a front desk 24/7, this place delivers exactly what it promises.

  Super convenient apartment with all the necessary things available, such as a hair dried and an iron (a huge plus). Very well planned layout, clean, neat and otherwise welcoming and even kinda homey.

  Really good location, easy check-in, cool design elements.
  
  What could be improved: There was some crumble on the floor. The sheats had quite strong detergent smell (felt it on my hair for a few hours after leaving).

  Great location, an easy walk to the old city and close to a park, shops and restaurants.
  
  Easy access to the studio apartment. Everything I needed was there (the coffee was a great addition!)…bed comfortable, bathroom modern, kitchen area well-fitted and a small table with a couple of chairs. Perfect for me as a solo traveller.

  Spacious apartment in an excellent central Riga location! It had all the facilities needed for a comfortable short stay. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the city

• A pleasant stay in a comfortable studio. – Michael from United Kingdom – 2 May 2025 (8/10)

  Lovely little studio located just a ten minute walk from the ‘Old Town’. Spotlessly clean and quiet with everything required and other nice little touches included for a very enjoyable stay. Ideal for the solo traveler. Thank you 🙏🏻.
  
  What could be improved: Unfortunately, I found the bed very hard and quite uncomfortable and the bedding is quite dated. Just plain cotton pillow cases would be great.
  
  Also I was quite confused with the instructions on how to enter the building from the street. Maybe a 🔑 emoji would be a better idea than just writing Key 4 in the instructions.
  
  I arrived after midnight and had to contact the host who was unavailable at the time but who rang back just as was about to check in to another hotel for the night with clearer instructions for entry.
  
  As I was looking for another hotel someone attempted to assault and rob me. Thankfully, I fought back and another man came to my aid as the rat ran away.
  
  I realise this is no one’s fault but it wasn’t a great start to my stay in Riga 😢.
