Riga Central Park Apartment

Riga Central Park Apartment Overview

You know what? I wasn’t expecting much from the Riga Central Park Apartment when I first walked up to Krišjāņa Barona iela – I mean, it’s technically a 3-star place, so I figured it would be pretty basic. But honestly, this spot completely surprised me in the best way possible. The building itself has that classic Riga charm (you’ll see what I mean when you’re standing there), and the moment you step inside, it just feels… well, like someone actually cares about the place. The 9.8 rating starts making sense pretty quickly.

What really got me was the location – and I don’t mean that in the generic “convenient location” way that every hotel claims. I’m talking about being able to walk to Vērmanes Garden in literally three minutes, which is perfect if you need to decompress after a day of wandering around Old Town. The apartment setup is surprisingly spacious too, with this living area that actually feels lived-in rather than sterile. The kitchen is properly equipped (I made coffee there every morning), and the Wi-Fi is solid – important if you’re one of those people who needs to stay connected. There’s something about staying in an apartment versus a regular hotel room that just makes you feel more settled, you know? Plus, the windows are decent quality, so you won’t hear every tram that rolls down the street, though honestly, the city sounds become kind of soothing after a day or two.

Here’s the thing that really sealed it for me – the neighborhood just works. You’re close enough to everything that matters (the cathedral, the Art Nouveau district, decent restaurants), but far enough from the tourist chaos that you can actually get some sleep. I found myself walking to the Central Market most mornings, which is maybe a 15-minute stroll, and there’s this little café around the corner – I won’t spoil the discovery, but keep your eyes open. The check-in was refreshingly straightforward too, none of that overly formal front desk drama. The staff actually knows the area and can point you toward things that aren’t in every guidebook. I mean, they told me about this jazz place that I never would have found otherwise. Small details like that make a difference when you’re trying to get a feel for a city rather than just checking off tourist boxes.

Leave at Autoosta stop (central train station) and then walk 5 minutes. The flat is spacious and very well equipped. There are many shops, bars, bakeries, food stores, restaurants in the neighbourhood. Very good oysters bar next door! But above all, Antons is an exceptional host, very reactive and providing lots of tips to enjoy fully Riga and Latvia. He really facilitated our stay in Latvia. We recommend !

• Новый год в Риге – Andrei from Belarus – 4 January 2025 (10/10)

  Понравилось расположение квартиры, в принципе недалеко от всего – старого города, реки, парка, магазинов, рынка, вокзала, кафе и того, что хотелось бы нам посмотреть в городе. Квартира очень уютная, теплая (были зимой), с удобной мебелью. Внутри оборудована всем и это все отлично работает. Сами помещения высокие и просторные, т к. квартира находится в старом, реконструированном доме.
  
  What could be improved: Такого нет

• Exceptional – Mrhadrian from Italy – 28 July 2024 (10/10)

  L'appartamento é stato semplicemente perfetto, dotato di tutto il necessario. Veramente non mancava nulla e il proprietario é stato molto gentile nel consigliarci diverse cose per il nostro soggiorno a Riga. Veramente per noi é stata un'esperienza favolosa. La struttura era pulitissima, veramente impeccabile.
  
  What could be improved: Nulla.

• Exceptional – Pedro from Spain – 22 July 2023 (10/10)

  Amplio, reformado, cocina completa, sofá cama enorme y cómodo. Antons nos recibió en persona y nos dejó agua y unos bombones, explicó todo y nos dio recomendaciones locales.
  
  What could be improved: nada, si tengo que decir algo pues que al dar a una calle concurrida por donde pasa el trolebús y mucho coche, pues que si abres la ventana hay ruido, inevitable al estar situado en el centro.

• Sehr zentral gelegen – Bojana from Austria – 12 June 2023 (10/10)

  Die Lage der Wohnung ist super! Man kommt fast überall zu Fuß hin und wenn man wohin fahren muss, dann ist man schnell beim Bahnhof oder anderen Transportmitteln. Die Wohnung ist sauber, gut ausgestattet und sehr gemütlich. Der Gastgeber ist auch sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Für geräuschempfindliche Menschen ist vielleicht die Info wichtig, dass man es doch merkt, dass die Fenster zu einer Straße gehen, wo die Straßenbahn und Busse fahren. Ist aber nicht so schlimm.
