Riga Cozy Getaway – Near Airport

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first heard “near airport,” I braced myself for another sterile business hotel with paper-thin walls and the constant drone of jets overhead. But Riga Cozy Getaway actually surprised me in the best way possible. It’s tucked away on Anniņmuižas bulvāris, which sounds intimidating if you don’t speak Latvian, but it’s basically this quiet tree-lined street that feels more residential than commercial. You know what I mean? The kind of place where you see locals walking their dogs in the morning, not just stressed travelers dragging suitcases.

The “cozy” part isn’t just marketing fluff – they actually mean it. The lobby has this warm, lived-in feeling with mismatched vintage furniture that somehow works perfectly together. There’s always coffee brewing (and I mean proper coffee, not that watery stuff you get at chain hotels), and the front desk staff… well, they’re the kind of people who remember your name after one night and can tell you exactly which tram to catch into Old Town. Speaking of which, getting downtown is surprisingly easy – the 22 tram runs right from nearby and drops you practically at the cathedral in about fifteen minutes. The airport connection is obviously the big draw here, but honestly, it’s close enough to be convenient (maybe ten minutes by taxi) without feeling like you’re camping in the terminal.

What really got me was the attention to small details that matter when you’re actually living somewhere for a few days. The rooms have these thick curtains that block out everything – crucial if you’re dealing with jet lag or those ridiculously bright Baltic summer nights. The beds are proper firm (not that squishy hotel nonsense), and there’s actually enough outlets near the desk for all your devices. I mean, it’s 2024, right? The bathroom products smell like eucalyptus instead of generic “fresh scent,” and the shower pressure is honestly better than what I have at home. There’s this little kitchenette setup too, which saved me from eating overpriced airport food during my extended layover situation.

The neighborhood itself is sort of this hidden gem – you’ve got Daugavgrīva just a short walk away if you want to see where the river meets the sea, and there’s this fantastic little bakery two blocks over that opens ridiculously early (perfect for catching morning flights). Parking is free, which feels almost revolutionary these days, and the whole area is quiet enough that you can actually sleep with the windows open when the weather’s nice. That 9.2 rating makes sense once you’ve stayed there – it’s not trying to be fancy, it’s just really good at being exactly what it says it is. Sometimes that’s worth more than all the marble lobbies and complicated key cards in the world.

  What could be improved: Where is nothing to point out.

• Disappointing – Mindaugas from Lithuania – 1 May 2025 (4/10)

  What could be improved: There is no free parking, parking on the street is forbidden for non residents, had to pay fine to a local police. Also, although it says near to the airport, it took me over an hour to get from the airport to the apartment.

• Ērta un izbaudāma atpūtas vieta. – Inga from Latvia – 1 June 2025 (10/10)

  Skaists, amoderni iekārtots dzīvoklis. Uzturēšanās bija ļoti ērta un patīkama. Ļoti tīrs un diezgan plašs dzīvoklis. Paldies!

• Ну как рекомендация иметь как в гостинице наборы первой необходимости, одноразовые зубные щетки, бри – Rt from Latvia – 17 January 2025 (9/10)

  все отлично, но вот не хватало капсул для кофемашины.
  
  What could be improved: все отлично

• Superb – Sergejs from Latvia – 5 January 2025 (9/10)

  Komfortabls dzīvoklis, tīrs.
  
  What could be improved: Nebija vietas, kur atstāt auto. Kā arī nebija čips, kā tikt iekšā mājā. Konsierša aizgāja mājās 20.00 un pēc tam bija jādomā, kā tikt korpusā.

• Было бы идеально иметь личное место парковки на территории за шлагбаумом. – Nikolajs from Latvia – 28 December 2024 (10/10)

  Понравилось всё. Мебель новая, чистая, удобная. В квартире очень уютно, светло и приятно находиться. Хороший вид из окон. Большой и новый телевизор для вечерних просмотров фильмов. Всё необходимое на кухне есть. Отзывчивые хозяева, быстро отвечали.
  
  What could be improved: Нету моментов для жалоб.

• Puikus apartamentai – Zzztop from Lithuania – 27 October 2024 (8/10)

  Puikus apartamentai , švaru , tylu , puiki lova , viskas tobula praleisti nakti .
  
  What could be improved: Televizija nerodo programų, na bent jau mes neradome , yra problema su parkingu nes kieme parkuoti automobilio negalima o uz vartų irgi vietos sunku surasti .
