Hotel Description

You know what caught me off guard about this place? The silence. I mean, you’re literally on Maskavas iela – which sounds like it should be this bustling main drag – but step inside this apartment and it’s like the city just… stops. The building itself has that solid, pre-war construction that actually keeps street noise out, unlike some of these newer places where you hear every tram rattling by.

The “historical area” part isn’t just marketing fluff either. You’re basically in the heart of Riga’s Central District, where the Art Nouveau buildings start giving way to more Soviet-era architecture, but in an interesting way – not the ugly concrete block kind. Walking to the Old Town takes maybe fifteen minutes if you’re strolling, and honestly, that’s perfect because you get to see how the city actually works beyond the tourist bits. There’s this little bakery on the corner of Maskavas and Krasta that locals hit up for morning coffee, and the covered market (Centrāltirgus) is close enough that you can grab fresh stuff for breakfast without it being a whole expedition. The apartment itself feels properly premium – and I say that as someone who’s stayed in plenty of places that promise luxury and deliver IKEA furniture. Everything’s been thoughtfully updated while keeping some of the original character. The kitchen actually works for cooking real meals, not just heating up leftovers, which matters if you’re staying more than a couple nights.

Here’s the thing about location though – you’re close enough to everything that matters but far enough from Vecrīga that you won’t be dealing with hen parties stumbling past your windows at 2 AM. The tram connections are solid (line 11 runs right along Maskavas), and if you’re driving, parking around here is actually manageable during the day, though evenings can get tight. I’d honestly recommend this place especially if you’re visiting during White Nights season – late May through July – when Riga gets those incredible long evenings and you want somewhere quiet to decompress after wandering around in daylight until nearly 11 PM. The 9.4 rating makes sense once you’re there; it’s one of those places where every detail works the way it should, from the shower pressure to the Wi-Fi speed to having enough outlets near the bed. Not flashy, just… right.

Reviews

  • Exceptional – Jess from United Kingdom – 3 July 2025 (10/10)

    The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. Nice additions like coffee pods and candy made the apartment extra cozy. The bed was huge!!!

  • We were fully satisfied with everything and definitely would recommend. – Garber from Georgia – 24 May 2025 (10/10)

    Couldn’t leave it without review, as we loved it very much. Amazing apartment, well-equiped, where is anything you can need. It is really cozy, comfortable, with pretty good location (about 20 minutes from old town and 15 mins to bus station).

    Host seems to be really thoughtful, as there was tea, coffee and even some sweets; any kind of dishes; towels ; hair dryer; high quality shampoo and even feminine hygiene products.

    What could be improved: The hand soap ran out by the second day. We were unable to sign in our netflix account on the tv due to error. But both of those facts all in all were not that important.

  • Exceptional – Kasperi from Finland – 21 April 2025 (10/10)

    Apartment itself was clean and equipments were in good condition including in kitchen.

    Apartment is locating in quiet area outside of the old town. It's only 10-15 minutes walk to bus station.

    Communication with host were easy.

  • Superb – Andris from Latvia – 6 April 2025 (9/10)

    Apartamentos trūka mikroviļņu krāsns.

  • Exceptional – Lidija_bo from Latvia – 1 January 2025 (10/10)

  • Exceptional – Reka from Austria – 13 December 2024 (10/10)

    A beautiful apartment in an ideal, walking distance to the Old Town. The good-quality furnishings ensure maximum comfort, and the quiet location contributes to a relaxing stay. Very clean and modern interior. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there over the long weekend and would highly recommend it to others 🙂

    What could be improved: Nothing

  • Our stay was fantastic—exactly as pictured, with a helpful host and a comfortable, clean apartment! – Dina from Latvia – 1 December 2024 (10/10)

    We had a wonderful stay at this apartment! It was exactly as described and looked just like the pictures—clean, modern, and very comfortable. The host was incredibly helpful and responsive, making our experience even better. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great stay!

  • With parking and coffee machine (requirements) – Grerena from Greece – 6 October 2024 (10/10)

    With a treat of chocolate bars I could not but say good things about the apartment! 🙂 It is an apartment on the third floor in a modern building within walking distance of the city center, behind the central market of Riga (10' from the market, 20' from the center). Very well equipped kitchen (and coffee maker), very well equipped bathroom.
    And since in Riga I will come again … please a frying pan would be better than a wok.

    What could be improved: I closed the apartment because it had a parking space in the courtyard of the building. It was only when I checked in that I was told that I would park the car in the alley below. It wasn't far but with rain and stuff to load it's a bit of a problem.
    There were no sheets for our daughter who would be sleeping on the couch. Luckily it was warm and we shared our own sheets and pillow.
    In general, the above two minuses are hidden in the many good aspects of the apartment
