Modern 2 bedroom apartment in the city centre Overview

Modern 2 bedroom apartment in the city centre is tucked right off Emilijas Benjaminas iela, and let me tell you, that spot is a goldmine for anyone who wants to feel like a local. You’ll find yourself walking past the old stone houses of the Old Town, then a quick hop across the bridge to the Freedom Monument, and boom—you’re at the heart of Riga but still far from the noise of the main square. The building itself is a sleek, mid‑century block that looks almost like a boutique hotel, but it’s actually a private apartment, so you get that cozy, lived‑in vibe that hotels just can’t match.

First thing that hits you when you step inside is the smell of fresh coffee and the faint hint of sea breeze that sneaks in through the open windows. The living room is bright, with a sofa that actually feels like a soft hug—think plush cushions but sturdy enough to sit on after a long day of walking. The kitchen is a dream for someone who loves to cook on the go: fully stocked, with a small induction stove, a coffee machine that makes a mean latte, and a tiny fridge that’s just big enough for your groceries. I mean, who needs a giant fridge when you’re only staying for a week? The walls are painted a calming gray, and the floorboards are smooth underfoot—no squeaks, no creaks.

The two bedrooms are surprisingly spacious. The master has a king‑size bed that actually feels like a cloud—soft sheets, a fluffy duvet, and a small reading lamp that’s perfect for late‑night book‑nights. The second bedroom is a bit smaller but still roomy, with a single bed that’s just the right size for a solo traveler. Both rooms have windows that open onto a small balcony—there’s no view of the city skyline, but you can see the street below, and you’ll hear the distant hum of traffic and the occasional bark of a dog from the nearby park. The bathroom feels like it was designed for efficiency: a glass shower, a sleek sink, and a small but functional sink area that’s actually easy to clean.

Now, about parking—Riga’s streets can be a nightmare if you’re used to city driving. Luckily, there’s a small underground parking lot right next to the building, but you’ll need to pay a daily fee. It’s not free, but the convenience is worth it if you’re lugging bags from the airport. Speaking of the airport, the apartment is a short 15‑minute drive from Riga International, or a 30‑minute tram ride if you want to avoid traffic. The check‑in process was super smooth; the host was friendly, gave you a quick orientation, and handed over a keycard that’s as simple as it gets. No long lines, no awkward handshakes—just a friendly “welcome” and a quick tour of the place.

If you’re wondering about noise, you’ll be pleased to know that the building’s construction is solid. Even on the evenings when the city lights up and the cafés spill out their music, the apartment stays quiet. I’ve stayed there during the summer festival season, and the only thing that rattled me was the occasional distant car alarm. And that’s about it.

There’s a tiny but charming café on Emilijas Benjaminas iela that’s a must‑visit—you’ll find it behind a red door, and the barista knows your name by the second cup. If you’re craving something more traditional, head over to the “Rīgas Pasts” bakery on the corner, where the rye bread still smells like it’s been baked fresh every morning. And don’t miss the small park a block away—perfect for a quick stroll after dinner.

All in all, this place is a solid 3‑star experience that feels more boutique than big hotel, and the rating of 9.6? Yeah, it’s not just a number—it’s a promise that you’re getting something special. Whether you’re here to soak up Riga’s history or just to escape the hustle of the city for a night, this apartment gives you the best of both worlds. You’ll feel like a local before you even know it.

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.
