New spacious and cozy apartment

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first saw “New spacious and cozy apartment” as the name, I rolled my eyes a bit. Generic much? But honestly, after spending time at this place on Stabu iela, I get why they went with such a straightforward description. It actually is spacious and cozy, which sounds like an oxymoron until you’re sitting there with your morning coffee.

The location is what really got me though. Stabu street isn’t one of those touristy spots everyone talks about, but that’s exactly why it works. You’re right in the heart of Riga’s Centre district – I mean, you can walk to the Old Town in maybe fifteen minutes, but you’re not dealing with the constant buzz of tour groups outside your window. The building itself has that solid Soviet-era construction (you know, the kind where you actually can’t hear your neighbors), and the apartment sits on a quiet stretch where the biggest noise issue is the occasional tram rumbling by. Actually found that pretty soothing after a while.

What struck me most was how they’ve managed to make the space feel genuinely lived-in without being cluttered. The kitchen’s got everything you’d actually use – not just a sad mini-fridge and hot plate situation. I ended up cooking more than I planned because, well, the nearby Centraltirgus market is impossible to resist, and there’s something satisfying about prepping fresh dill and vegetables in a kitchen that doesn’t feel like an afterthought. The living area flows naturally into everything else, with these big windows that let in serious light during the day. Word of advice though – if you’re here in summer, those same windows can make mornings pretty bright pretty early. Nothing a decent eye mask can’t handle.

The whole setup just feels… practical? Like someone actually thought about how people move through a space. The bathroom’s properly sized (you won’t be bumping your elbows every time you brush your teeth), and there’s enough storage that you’re not living out of a suitcase the whole time. Check-in was refreshingly straightforward too – none of that awkward waiting around wondering if you’re at the right building.

Here’s the thing about this place that really sells it for me: it’s got that 9.6 rating for a reason, and it’s not because of fancy amenities or Instagram-worthy design. It’s because when you’re trying to figure out Riga – whether you’re wandering through Vermanes dārzs or getting lost in the Art Nouveau district – you actually want to come back here at the end of the day. It feels like a base camp rather than just a place to crash. Plus, being on Stabu means you’re close enough to everything that matters without being in the middle of the chaos. Sometimes the best recommendation is simply that a place does exactly what it promises, without any weird surprises or disappointments. This one delivers on that front.

  Extremely spacious , fully equipped and stylish apartment that has been put together with the guest in mind. Superb value for money and very comfortable – could easily have stayed for longer!

• A Truly Unforgettable Stay – Lauren from United Kingdom – 30 January 2025 (10/10)

  Stupendous communication with host throughout. The interior of the apartment was chic, modern and comfortably spacious for two adults. Kitchen is very well equipped, especially if you are planning to do some cooking. Location was also brilliant, great being able to walk everywhere. Loved that umbrellas were provided, very thoughtful touch. Additionally as someone who is a self-proclaimed neat freak – the cleanliness was second to none. The apartment was quite literally spotless.
  
  What could be improved: Having a coffee machine is always a bonus. Minor critique here, but it would have been great not to have rationed pods. Shower could also do with a shelf to prevent having to keep toiletries on the floor. Other than these elements – accommodation was incredible.

• Beautiful apartment in great location. – Hannah from United Kingdom – 17 January 2025 (10/10)

• Exceptional – Elena from Greece – 7 January 2025 (10/10)

  Very spacious, very clean and all furniture seemed new

• Excellent value for money – Branko from United Kingdom – 2 December 2024 (10/10)

  The apartment was simply and beautifully decorated with Japanese art and a lovely old-fashioned masonry heater.
  Every detail was well suited in the spacious and bright apartment. Mattress and pillows were very comfortable, Wi-fi was working seamlessly, same as heating. Location was also perfect, just about 15 mins walk from the city centre. There are a lot of restaurants, shops and bars in the area and the KGB Museum is only 500 meters away.
  Check in and out were very simple, using door codes. The owner was very helpful and responsive.
  New spacious and cozy apartment definitely justifies its name!
