New Exclusive 2 Bedroom Apartment in OldRiga

New Exclusive 2 Bedroom Apartment in OldRiga Overview

New Exclusive 2 Bedroom Apartment in OldRiga is tucked away on Vaļņu iela, a narrow street that feels like a secret passage into the heart of the city. When I first walked in, the front desk was a single counter with a handwritten welcome sign that smelled faintly of fresh coffee – the kind of local touch that instantly signals you’re not in a chain hotel. The check‑in process was quick and friendly; the staff handed me a keycard that folded like a postcard, and a map that actually highlighted the best coffee spots within a block. They mentioned the nearest parking spot – a small municipal lot two streets over that’s free on weekdays – which saved me a lot of hassle later.

The apartment itself is a modern reinterpretation of an old Rīga flat. The living room is airy, with floor‑to‑ceiling windows that let the morning light spill onto a soft, cream‑tiled floor. I mean, the sound of early birds outside is kind of soothing; you can hear the faint rustle of leaves on the tree-lined street. The kitchen is surprisingly spacious for a two‑bedroom setup – stainless steel appliances, a decent-sized fridge, and a small island that serves as both a prep space and a casual dining spot. I tried the local rye bread from the nearby bakery on Vaļņu iela and it paired perfectly with the home‑made jam that the host left as a welcome gift. The bathroom is a clean, minimalist space with a rainfall shower that feels surprisingly luxurious; the only downside is that the shower head is a bit far from the door, so when it rains outside, the tiles can get a little damp.

The bedrooms are a good size, with double beds that have linens that feel like clouds – the kind that make you want to stay in bed till noon. The second bedroom has a small walk‑in closet, which is a lifesaver if you’re traveling with a few pairs of shoes. I noticed the windows face south, so the rooms are bright even in the winter. The Wi‑Fi is strong, but I did have to try a couple of passwords – the host sends the details in a text that’s easy to follow. The only glitch was that the TV’s remote was slightly unresponsive, but they had a spare remote in the drawer, so no big deal.

Location-wise, this place is a gold mine if you want to soak up Old Rīga. From the apartment, you can walk a 10‑minute stroll to the Freedom Square, where the iconic statue of Kārlis Lembergs stands. The next block takes you to the historic Old Town – cobblestone streets, medieval facades, and the smell of fresh pastries from a bakery on Lielupe Street. I had a coffee at a tiny café called “Kafija” on the corner of Lielupe and Vaļņu – they serve the best flat‑baked rye bread, and the barista knows how to pull a perfect macchiato. For a quiet night, you might want to avoid the main plaza’s evening crowds, but the apartment’s window views are still pretty chill. If you’re traveling during the summer, the street is lively with locals and tourists alike; in the winter, it’s almost serene, and the city’s lights cast a magical glow on the old stone walls.

One small critique: the apartment’s air conditioning is a bit noisy at night – it’s a small unit, so it rattles a bit when it kicks on. Also, the parking spot I mentioned is only free on weekdays; on weekends, you’ll need to pay a modest fee, which the host reminds you in a friendly note. Other than that, everything else is spot on. The host’s local recommendations were spot‑on – the best place for a midnight pizza is a tiny pizzeria on the corner of Vērmanes, and for a peaceful walk, try the walk along the Daugava River that’s just a couple of blocks away.

All in all, staying at this place felt like having a home base in the middle of Rīga’s pulse. You get a private, well‑furnished apartment, a welcoming host, and a location that lets you step into the city’s history and modern life with ease. If you’re looking for comfort, authenticity, and a genuine Rīga experience, this is the spot you’ll want to check out.

Reviews of New Exclusive 2 Bedroom Apartment in OldRiga

• Love the apartment, noise level not the fault of owner – May from Singapore – 17 June 2025 (9/10)

  Apartment was very clean,
  Extremely Close to attractions
  
  What could be improved: Because it was so close to the old town, the party goers were gathering just below the apartment after the pubs were closed & continued their noisy chatter after 3 am which I could hear from the bedroom

• Super 🙂 – Emilia from Poland – 28 May 2025 (10/10)

  The location of the apartment is perfect. There was everything what we needed and very clean. Easy contact with a nice and helpful owner.
  
  What could be improved: –

• Great location – Anrijs from Cyprus – 8 January 2025 (10/10)

  Well equipped clean apartment in heart of old town, prime location restaurant shops all necessary services in walking distance, host friendly and helpful sent self check in details before our arrival,

• Wonderful people and very friendly. Incredible tour guides. I highly recommend a visit. – Maureen from United Kingdom – 17 December 2024 (10/10)

  Great location and very nice property.
  
  What could be improved: I would have preferred two bedside tables by the bed. Having just one on one side was a bit difficult as I had to put my phone and book on the floor. I’m quite short and the bed was quite high for me. Apart from that it was great 😊

• Great apartment, superb location – Dominyk from United Kingdom – 11 December 2024 (8/10)

  Apartment was easy to check-in following instructions sent to us. It was very clean and well laid out and perfectly placed in central location for our needs.
  A nearby shopping centre provided a supermarket and other stores needed and bars/restaurants were plentiful surrounding the area.
  We were close the Xmas market location, as well as other tourist attractions/sights. The area felt very safe to walk around both during the day and the evening.
  It was setup for self catering but given the number of restaurants around the area we choose to eat out for our stay and didn't use these.
  It has 2 bedrooms both doubles, a separate shower and toilet which is great if a few of you are staying there. A large coat and shoe storage area so these don't encroach in the apartment especially if wet and we loved the Xmas tree!
  
  What could be improved: The main bed was slightly uncomfortable as it seemed to roll towards the middle of the bed, but this is being very picky and didn't detract from a really great stay and if returning we would book this apartment again.
