Tasteful 1bd City Centre Apartme Overview

Look, I’ve stayed in plenty of city center apartments that promise the world and deliver a cramped room with paper-thin walls, but this little gem on Raiņa bulvāris actually surprised me. The address might sound fancy – and honestly, it is pretty well-positioned – but what struck me first was how quiet it was for being right in the thick of things. You’re literally a three-minute walk from the Freedom Monument, yet somehow the street noise doesn’t really penetrate once you’re inside.

The apartment itself feels like someone actually lives there, you know? Not in a messy way, but in that comfortable, thought-out way where there’s proper lighting for reading and the kitchen has more than just a sad little kettle. I mean, it’s still a one-bedroom, so don’t expect to throw any parties, but the layout works really well – the living area doesn’t feel cramped even with a proper dining table. The bed was honestly better than I expected for a 3-star place, and the bathroom had decent water pressure, which… well, if you’ve traveled enough in older European buildings, you know that’s not always a given. What really sold me on the location was discovering how easy it is to get around from there. The Opera House is practically next door, and you can walk to Old Town in about eight minutes – I timed it because I’m that kind of person. But here’s the thing locals know: Raiņa bulvāris is also perfect for just grabbing groceries or finding a decent coffee shop that isn’t tourist-priced. There’s a Rimi supermarket about five minutes away, and this little café called Miit that does excellent breakfast if you get tired of making your own.

The building itself is one of those classic Riga affairs – a bit of character in the hallways, though the elevator is modern enough that you won’t be questioning your life choices. Parking can be tricky if you’re driving (street parking is mostly paid during the day), but honestly, you probably won’t need a car much from this location. I stayed there in late September, and the whole area was lovely for evening walks – quiet enough to feel residential but with enough going on that you never felt isolated. The 9.2 rating makes sense once you’re there; it’s not luxury, but it’s exactly what it promises to be, and sometimes that’s worth more than all the fancy amenities in the world.

Reviews of Tasteful 1bd City Centre Apartme

  • Exceptional – Lady from Czech Republic – 2 May 2025 (10/10)

    Really tasteful and cozy apartment. There is everything you need for cooking. The location is perfect. The host is very friendly and welcoming.

  • Exceptional – Romana from Czech Republic – 29 March 2025 (10/10)

    The apartment was beautifully clean and has everything you need during your stay 🙂
    And the picture in the kitchen is top! 😀
    The only thing we missed were the blinds on the windows as there was a lot of light in the bedroom even at night.

  • Exceptional – Solis from United States – 26 February 2025 (10/10)

    The location next to the bus line and the cute natural lighting.

    What could be improved: I didn't have a pan or a baking sheet so I had to improvise. In hindsight I probably should have messaged the host sooner . They probably would have dropped one off

  • Recommended for a cosy stay in Riga ✨ – Stefano from Italy – 25 May 2025 (8/10)

    Appartamento rinnovato e funzionale. Decisamente ottima posizione e fornita di tutto il necessario 😎

    What could be improved: L’assenza delle tende in camera da letto! Avrei gradito anche trovare qualche capsula per il caffè per la macchina da caffè presente nell’appartamento (una dolce gusto). Ma in generale bella esperienza ;)!

  • Viihtyisä asunto, josta käsin pääsi hyvin Riiassa joka paikkaan. – Outi from Finland – 19 May 2025 (9/10)

    Siisti ja tyylikäs asunto, erittäin keskeisellä sijainnilla.

    What could be improved: Avain oli aluksi vaikea löytää.

  • Conforto no centro de Riga – Diogo from Portugal – 29 October 2024 (8/10)

    Apartamento muito bem localizado, mesmo em frente a um jardim incrivelmente bonito. Prédio recentemente restaurado e muito bonito. Apartamento equipado com bons eletrodomésticos e bom equipamento de aquecimento. Muito bem decorado e acolhedor.

    What could be improved: O elevador não funcionou durante mais de metade da estadia, o que tornou dolorosa o transporte da bagagem. O chão do apartamento treme muito com a movimentação dos apartamentos vizinhos, tornando desconfortável trabalhar à secretária.
