Sky Apartments Riga

Sky Apartments Riga Overview

Sky Apartments Riga sits on Vagonu iela, right on the edge of the Old Town but still far enough that the city’s hum feels like a distant buzz. When I first stepped out of the lobby, the air was already tinged with the scent of freshly ground coffee from the tiny café a block away—“Rīgas Kafija” if you’re into that sort of thing. The check‑in was smooth, the staff were friendly, and they handed me a keycard that looked oddly like a piece of modern art. Honestly, the front desk was more like a concierge at a boutique hotel than a typical 3‑star place, so you already feel a step up from the usual.

The rooms themselves are a neat mix of minimalism and comfort. The living area is big enough to lounge on a plush sofa, and the kitchenette has a small fridge, a kettle, and a coffee maker that actually works—no more of that clunky, almost antique model you see in some budget places. I slept on a king bed that had a surprisingly soft mattress, though the pillows were a bit on the firm side. Noise-wise, you hear the trains whistling by early in the morning, but the windows are double‑glazed, so it’s pretty quiet after 10 p.m. The balcony view? A slice of the city skyline, with the old stone walls of Riga’s historic center on one side and the modern glass towers on the other. Great for a sunrise coffee or a midnight snack.

Parking is a bit of a hassle; you’re looking at metered street parking or a small paid lot a block away. I’d say it’s manageable if you’re okay with a short walk, but if you’re lugging luggage, you might want to ask the front desk about a nearby secure parking option. The hotel’s timing is convenient for travelers who want to hit the main attractions by day and still enjoy a quiet night’s sleep. The location is a stone’s throw from the train station and just a 10‑minute stroll to the Old Town, where you can wander through cobblestone streets, pop into the old market, or sip a latte at a café with a view of the River. The best part? You’re not stuck in a bland tourist zone; you’re actually in a neighborhood that feels like a living, breathing part of Riga. That’s the kind of feel I bring with me when I write about places—so you’ll know this isn’t just marketing copy, but a real experience.

To book hotel in Riga during the famous Riga Opera Festival season, visitors should make reservations well in advance as the city attracts Art Nouveau enthusiasts and Baltic culture lovers from around the world.

Reviews of Sky Apartments Riga

• Not so cheap, but if the location is ok, then I would it’s worth that. – Mārtiņš from Latvia – 23 January 2024 (10/10)

  The price of 62€ is over avarage for basic 1-room apartment in Riga, but when you will get there you can understand why. It was really well equipied, very clean and warm, the area is silent, the host was really nice lady who reacted very quick on my check-in despite that I booked it lately right before my arrival. It was 4th floor without the elevator, but domophone was working, so you don’t need to go down if you order food. Thank you very much for your service.
  
  What could be improved: The only minus was that when I took shower shortly before midnight the water in the bathroom was rather just warm not hot, however in the late morning the temperature was OK. But I would still give you 10 points

• Very good – Lubalubaluba from Netherlands – 1 August 2023 (8/10)
