Self check in Miera Art Apartment

Self check in Miera Art Apartment Overview

Self check in Miera Art Apartment—you know what, this place is one of those hidden gems that feels more like a personal studio than a hotel. I stumbled into it on a rainy Tuesday while wandering down Miera iela, just a block from the old city walls. The building is a classic Latvian brick structure with a worn façade that’s oddly charming. Inside, the space is a riot of colors and textures, with exposed brick walls and an eclectic mix of contemporary art that feels like the locals’ own gallery. The furniture is a mix of mid‑century pieces and hand‑crafted items, giving the rooms that personal, almost lived‑in vibe you only find in true neighborhood stays.

The check‑in is a breeze—no front desk, just a keypad on the door and a QR code that pops up a video guide. I mean, it’s super convenient, especially if you’re traveling solo or just want to skip the line. The keycard is a little bulky, but you get the idea. The apartment itself is about 80 square meters; the living area spills into the kitchen, and the bed is surprisingly comfortable—think memory foam with a linen duvet that feels like a hug. The bathroom is a tiny, sparkling white space, and the shower has that robust water pressure that makes you feel like you’re back at home. Honestly, the real treat is the little balcony that faces a quiet street; you can hear the distant bells from the nearby St. Gertrude’s Church and, on clear days, see the spires of the cathedral peeking over the rooftops. It’s a quiet oasis that’s surprisingly close to the bustle of the city.

Now, let’s talk about the practical stuff because that’s what actually matters. Parking is a bit of a scavenger hunt—you’ll have to find a spot on the street, and during winter the snow can make it a bit of a challenge. But once you’re in the city center, you’ll notice that the streets are well kept and the traffic is relatively calm compared to other European capitals. The noise level is pretty moderate; you’ll hear the hum of city life—cars, trams, and occasional street performers—especially on Miera iela during the day, but at night it’s almost as quiet as a library. The apartment’s insulation is decent, so you won’t be woken up by the nightlife. If you’re a night owl, the late‑night walk to the nearby Café 7G (just a 10‑minute stroll down Spīde iela) is a treat—you’ll get fresh coffee and a pastry that’s better than any hotel minibar.

I love the fact that the location is practically a stone’s throw from the Central Market (Tirdziņš), where you can sample local cheese and smoked fish, and yet you’re still far enough from the tourist crowds that you can enjoy a relaxed breakfast at the market’s open‑air stalls before heading into the city. The art scene is alive too—just a few blocks away from the Art House (Mūzikas nams) and the small, independent gallery on Bļuma iela. I mean, you could spend a whole day wandering the streets of Riga’s Old Town, popping into shops, and then return to a clean, airy space that feels like a home away from home. The only thing I would tweak is that the Wi‑Fi signal is a bit spotty in the northern corners, but that’s a minor inconvenience when you’re soaking up the real vibe of the city. All in all, if you’re looking for a place that gives you a taste of local life and a comfortable, artistic space to unwind, Self check in Miera Art Apartment is the spot to check out—literally and figuratively.

• Nice apartment in a nice area – Fabian from Latvia – 28 May 2025 (9/10)

  The location is right what i was looking for. Residential neighbourhood in front of a beautiful park. The apartment is beautiful, Spacious and well equipped.
  
  What could be improved: The only downside is that it is in a 4-5ft floor without elevator. I do not know if I miss that in the information, but it was a bit uncomfortable for my mom who is an elderly person.
