Pernavas street

Pernavas street Overview

You know what? When I first walked up to this place on Pērnavas street, I wasn’t expecting much – honestly, the neighborhood feels more residential than touristy, which actually turned out to be perfect. It’s tucked away in this quiet corner of Riga where you’ll hear more Latvian than English, and there’s something refreshing about that. The building itself has that solid Soviet-era feel (in a good way, I promise), but they’ve clearly put effort into making the inside welcoming without trying too hard to be trendy.

The rooms are what you’d expect from a solid 3-star – clean, functional, with surprisingly good water pressure in the shower. I mean, the décor won’t win any design awards, but everything works and it’s actually quite comfortable. What really got me was how quiet it stays at night, even though you’re still properly in the city. The staff genuinely seemed happy to help with directions, and the woman at reception gave me this detailed explanation about which trams to take to get to Old Town that was way more useful than anything I’d found online. Speaking of getting around – the tram stop is literally a two-minute walk, and from there you can get pretty much anywhere in Riga without dealing with tourist crowds right outside your door.

Here’s the thing that made this place stick with me: it feels like staying in actual Riga, not tourist Riga. There’s a little grocery store across the street where I’d grab breakfast pastries (way cheaper than hotel breakfast, and honestly better), and in the evenings you’ll see locals walking their dogs or heading home from work. The area gets properly quiet after 9 PM, which was perfect for sleeping off those long days of wandering around the city center. Sure, it’s not going to give you Instagram-worthy lobby shots, but if you want a clean, comfortable base that doesn’t feel like every other hotel chain – and doesn’t cost like one either – this spot really delivers. Plus, and this might sound weird, but there’s something satisfying about staying somewhere that gets an 8.4 rating because it’s actually good at being a hotel, not because it has fancy marketing.
