Neiburgs Hotel

Hotel Description

You know what caught me off guard about Neiburgs Hotel? Walking up to this understated building on Jauniela street, I honestly wasn’t expecting much – it’s tucked into this narrow cobblestone lane that most tourists miss entirely. But then you step inside and it’s like someone took all the best parts of old Riga and wrapped them up in this incredibly thoughtful boutique experience. The lobby has this warm, lived-in elegance that actually feels authentic rather than trying too hard, which is refreshing in a city where so many places are either Soviet-era bland or over-the-top medieval themed.

The location is really something special once you get oriented. I mean, you’re literally steps from the House of the Blackheads – you can see it from some of the rooms – but you’re on this quiet side street that locals use as a shortcut between the old town and the Daugava river. The breakfast room overlooks a little courtyard that somehow stays peaceful even when the main tourist areas are packed (which, let’s be honest, is most of summer). What I really appreciated was how the staff seemed to know the neighborhood inside and out. When I asked about avoiding the cruise ship crowds at Town Hall Square, the front desk guy gave me this whole alternate route through the smaller streets that I never would have found on my own. The rooms themselves strike this perfect balance – they’ve kept the character of the old building with these high ceilings and original details, but everything works properly. The bathroom was surprisingly spacious for a historic building, and the Wi-Fi actually reached every corner of the room, which isn’t always a given in these thick-walled places.

Here’s what really sold me on this place: it’s the kind of hotel where you feel like you’re staying somewhere locals might actually recommend rather than just another tourist trap. The bar downstairs gets a mix of hotel guests and Riga residents, especially on weekends, which creates this nice energy without being rowdy. Parking can be tricky – there’s no dedicated lot, but they’ll help you sort out street parking or point you toward the nearest garage. Check-in was smooth, though I’d recommend calling ahead if you’re arriving late since it’s not a massive operation. The 9.4 rating makes sense when you experience the attention to detail – little things like having an actual coffee machine in the room (not just instant packets) and blackout curtains that actually block out the white nights if you’re visiting in summer. If you’re looking for a place that feels connected to Riga rather than insulated from it, and you don’t need a pool or gym to be happy, this is exactly the kind of find that makes you feel like you discovered something special.

Reviews

• Great place to stay – Rosie from United Kingdom – 9 July 2025 (9/10)

  Excellent location – super close to the centre of the old town, really nice big room with giant bed. It had everything we wanted for a few days in Riga.
  
  What could be improved: We had to ask for kitchen supplies which was a little weird in my opinion! The hotel staff bought these up to the room, but the kitchenette initially came with no pans, no sharp knives, no chopping boards etc.

• Hotel Neiburgs contributed to the overall very positive impression of Riga city. – Efterpi from Greece – 8 July 2025 (10/10)
