Urban Apartments In Riga

Urban Apartments In Riga Overview

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first walked up to Urban Apartments on Bruņinieku iela, I wasn’t expecting much from a 3-star place. But you know what? Sometimes the unassuming spots end up surprising you the most. This little building sits right in the heart of Riga’s newer district, and while it might not have the old-world charm of the medieval quarter, there’s something refreshingly straightforward about it that I actually came to appreciate.

The thing about this location is that you’re genuinely living like a local here. I mean, step outside and you’ve got real neighborhood bakeries where the staff doesn’t automatically switch to English, plus you’re walking distance to some of Riga’s best kept secrets – like that amazing Georgian restaurant on Elizabetes iela that most tourists never find. The apartments themselves are properly equipped (and I mean actually equipped, not just “kitchenette with a hot plate” equipped). I was making proper coffee in the morning and heating up leftovers from the Central Market without any issues. The Wi-Fi worked consistently too, which honestly isn’t something you can take for granted everywhere in the Baltics.

What really won me over was how quiet it gets at night. You’re close enough to the action that you can walk to the Old Town in about 15 minutes, but far enough that you’re not dealing with drunk tourists stumbling around at 2 AM. The building itself has that solid Soviet-era construction – thick walls that actually keep sound out, unlike some of these modern places with paper-thin everything. Parking was straightforward too, which if you’ve ever tried to navigate Riga’s old streets with a rental car, you’ll know is worth its weight in gold. The staff at check-in were the kind of helpful that feels genuine rather than scripted, and they had actual local recommendations rather than just pointing you toward the usual tourist traps. That 8.5 rating makes total sense to me – it’s not trying to be something it’s not, but what it does, it does really well.

Reviews of Urban Apartments In Riga

• Clean and quiet apartment – Katrina from Latvia – 27 May 2025 (10/10)

  Amazing studio apartment in a central area. Apartment was clean and very quiet. The bed was confortable, I really enjoyed my night's rest. Kitchen is simple but functional, there was everything I needed to cook a meal, and they even leave some coffee and tea which was a nice bonus. Shower pressure was good. And communication with the host was fast and friendly. I will definitely stay here again. Thank you for a nice accommodation!
