Leider nicht nochmal
Pros:

Das junge Personal war sehr freundlich und bemüht.

Cons:

Wir hatten ein Zimmer unterm Dach, es war sehr warm und hell. Es stand ein Lüfter bereit.
Die Dusche war in der Wanne, mit Duschvorhängen. Nach dem Duschen stand Wasser im Bad ☹️. Gereinigt wird nur, wenn man ein Schild an die Tür hängt, muss man auch erstmal wissen. Das Haus im Ganzen ist in die Jahre gekommen. Das Zimmer lag zur Straße, auf Grund der Wärme musste das Fenster offen bleiben dadurch war es laut- wir hatten um ein leises Zimmer vorab gebeten. Für uns absolut keine 4 Sterne. Die Lage allein rechtfertigt weder die Sterne noch den Preis.

A perfect place to explore the Old Town
Pros:

We stayed at Old Riga Boutique Hotel Vecriga with my wife for our wedding anniversary, and it was a most wonderful experience.

The girls on the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and even found a way to make our anniversary feel extra special, which we really appreciated. Thank you so much!

The hotel itself is truly beautiful, with charming old-style décor and atmosphere, while the rooms are newly renovated, comfortable and very well maintained. It also has the loveliest courtyard, which is a perfect little place to relax and adds even more charm to the entire experience.

The location is excellent – right in the heart of Riga’s Old Town and perfect for exploring everything on foot, while we conveniently parked out car at the hotel grounds near-by.

Breakfast was also very good - a great start to the day.

A beautiful hotel with a lot of character, a fantastic location and genuinely welcoming staff. We will surely visit again!

Pros:

Sijainti erinomainen vanhassakaupungissa. Lyhyt matka myös rautatie- ja linja-autoasemille.
Hyvä aamiainen.

Für den Preis hatten wir mehr erwartet
Pros:

Schöne zentrale Lage. Nettes Personal. Wir durften sogar schon eine Stunde eher in unser Zimmer.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war wirklich sehr klein, für zwei Personen tatsächlich grenzwertig. Es gab auch nur ein Dachfenster. Das Bad war auch sehr eng, wir haben uns oft gestoßen. Einige Dinge waren auch locker im Bad. Ganz sauber war das Zimmer leider auch nicht.
Das Frühstück war reichhaltig aber nicht immer ganz frisch.

Unforgettable experience.

Our lived experience matched the marketing material. A rare experience. Great in virtually every aspect. I will definitely promote this hotel in South Africa.

Nothing to complain about...very rare in travel now a day.

Beautiful and charming small hotel in perfect location in old Riga

Loved the location, amazing breakfast, the special and memorable feeling of the place, comfy beds! I was so happy we didn’t choose the Marriott- this place had so much more character.

Opción a considerar (si no sufres de calor)
Pros:

Me gustó la ubicación, ya que estaba muy cerca del centro y se podía ir andando a todas partes. El personal es muy agradable.

Cons:

El hotel no cuenta con aire acondicionado. Sentí mucho calor en la habitación. El desayuno tampoco me pareció excelente.
