Riga City Center Quiet Apartment with Free Private Parking

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first saw “Quiet Apartment with Free Private Parking” in the name, I thought it was one of those places that oversells itself. But honestly? They actually deliver on both promises, which is pretty rare in Riga’s city center.

The location on Rūpniecības iela is one of those spots that locals know but tourists often miss. You’re literally a five-minute walk from the Old Town’s cobblestone streets, but you’re tucked away on this quieter stretch where you won’t hear drunk bachelor parties stumbling home at 3 AM (trust me, that’s a blessing if you’ve stayed anywhere near Doma laukums during summer). The building itself is typical Soviet-era construction – nothing fancy from the outside, but the apartment inside has been really thoughtfully renovated. You know what struck me? The windows are actually double-glazed, which explains why traffic noise just… doesn’t exist once you’re inside.

The parking situation is genuinely impressive for this part of Riga. Most places in the center either don’t have parking at all or charge you an arm and a leg for some sketchy spot three blocks away. Here, you’ve got your own designated space right behind the building – I mean, it’s not glamorous, but it’s secure and free, which is honestly worth its weight in gold if you’re driving through the Baltics. The apartment itself feels like someone’s actual home rather than a sterile hotel room. The kitchen is fully equipped (and I actually mean fully – there’s even a proper coffee maker, not just one of those sad pod machines), and the living area has this comfortable, lived-in feel. The WiFi is solid, which matters if you’re trying to work or just want to upload those inevitable Riga Cathedral photos without waiting forever.

What really sets this place apart is the attention to practical details. There are actual hangers in the closet, not just two bent wire things. The shower has proper water pressure – and if you’ve stayed in older European apartments, you know that’s not always a given. The bed is comfortable enough that I didn’t wake up feeling like I’d been wrestling with the mattress all night. It’s not luxury, but it’s genuine comfort, and sometimes that’s exactly what you need. The 9.4 rating makes total sense once you’re there – it’s one of those places that just works without any drama or surprises. Perfect for couples who want to explore Riga’s amazing Art Nouveau district (seriously, walk down Alberta iela if you haven’t) or families who need space to spread out after long days of sightseeing. Just don’t expect a concierge or room service – this is more like borrowing a friend’s really nice apartment in the perfect spot.

Reviews

• Superb – Gregory from Belgium – 23 June 2025 (9/10)

  Spacious studio, great quality for the price, great to have a parking place so close to the center, while being able to do most of the sights by foot

• Exceptional – Emilie from Denmark – 8 June 2025 (10/10)

  Everything was very nice. We could not have asked for a kinder host – he was very helpful with arranging the parking, explaining the things at check-in, and all the ammenities were there. Very clean and quiet location, and the host always asked if we needed anything or were comfortable when we met him during the stay. The location is great, right next to the Art Nouveau district, and only a 10-15 minute walk to the centre. Even being highly pregnant, this distance was no issue at all.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing to say.

• Would stay here again – Ljubov from Estonia – 20 April 2025 (9/10)

  Easy communication with the host. Clean apartment, extremely comfortable beds, pillows, and blankets. Each set of towels has a different colour, which is very convenient. Quiet neighbourhood.
  
  What could be improved: We missed bedside lamps

• Great Location, Friendly Host and Super Clean! – Karan from Germany – 17 September 2023 (10/10)

  The place is very well located from the Riga Center. A huge hypermarket is just 5 mins walk from here. The property was well equipped with all amenities and it was super clean. I would definitely recommend this property.

• Excellent – Tien-lung from Taiwan – 2 September 2023 (10/10)

  The host is very nice and helpful. They introduced the nearby attractions well, including the sunset, market, old and new town, etc. The house is also clean, big space, good facilities, free parking, etc.
  
  What could be improved: If you have a lot of big luggage, the room level you should ask host first. My room is located at the third floor. But, it didn't a matter for me.
