Pros:

🌟 Positive aspects
- Beautiful design & unique atmosphere — The hotel itself is very nicely presented, with a unique feel that stands out compared to standard chain hotels.
- Excellent location — Ideal for exploring Riga: close to the Old Town, parks, markets, and both the bus and train stations.
- Useful in‑room amenities — Having a fridge and coffee machine in the room was genuinely convenient.
- Good-sized safe — Large enough to store a laptop, which is always appreciated.
- Robes and slippers — A nice touch that added a bit of comfort.

Cons:

⚠️ Negative aspects
- No exterior window — The biggest issue was that the room had no window to the outside, something not made clear in the photos or description. Had I known this, I would not have booked the room.
- Cleanliness oversight — While the room appeared clean overall, finding a previous guest’s sock between the wardrobe and the wall was unpleasant.
- Insufficient toiletries — For two adults, only one very small shampoo and one very small shower gel were provided. It may seem minor, but I’ve never encountered this before in a hotel of this standard.
- Broken air‑conditioning — The air‑conditioning didn’t work at all. We were only told this after asking, and were given a fan instead. From what the receptionist said, it sounded like it hadn’t been working for some time.
- Communication difficulties — The reception staff we interacted with struggled with both English and Latvian for simple questions, though they could speak Russian. This made basic communication more difficult than expected.
- Unclear checkout process — When leaving, there was no staff member present, no key drop box, and no instructions. After waiting and looking around, we eventually left the key on the empty desk where someone had paused Netflix.

Great location and accessible.
Pros:

Stylish very central hotel with good size room and everything you could need

Cons:

My room didn't have a window. To be honest that ensured it was quiet- the hotel is on a square packed with outdoor bars and I didnt hear a thing.

Ein Aufenthalt reicht!
Pros:

Unser Zimmer war absolut ruhig, man hat nichts von dem Lärm vor dem Haus mitbekommen.

Cons:

Das Zimmer hatte kein Fenster, das war bekannt.
Umso mehr ist man auf eine funktionierende Klimaanlage angewiesen, grade dann wenn das Thermostat des Schlafraums auch nach 4 Stunden Klimaanlage bei 24,7 Grad verharrt.

Man bat uns einen Ventilator an, der die Luft jedoch nur verwirbelt aber nicht kühlt!

Man hat uns weder einen Nachlass angeboten, noch hat man sich entschuldigt.

Auch das Frühstück hatte so seine Tücken.
Obwohl die Frühstückszeit bis 11.00 ausgewiesen war wurde 30 Minuten vor Ende nicht mehr nachgelegt.

Croissants waren gerne mal hart und der letzte Restaurantmitarbeiter war an beiden Tagen nicht mal in der Lage einfache Bestellungen auf zunehmen und zu bringen.

Beautifully presented hotel with friendly staff
Pros:

The beautiful hotel interior and the attention to detail is exceptional. Friendly staff and the location was perfect in the old town. Although there were no windows looking outdoors, ours overlooked the hotel atrium, this was totally fine.
Quiet in the evening also.

Cons:

Nothing

Perfekte Lage in der Altstadt
Pros:

Alles etwas luxuriös wirkend, aber die Gäste ganz "normal".
Die Lage in der Altstadt ist phänomenal, besser geht kaum!
Das Frühstück war umfangreich und bot alles, was man braucht und erwartet. Und die Aussicht vom Frühstücksraum in der 6. Etage ist unschlagbar.

Cons:

Wir hatten ein Zimmer ohne Fenster!
Da die Klimaanlage nicht ordnungsgemäß funktionierte, war es schön warm....
Auch hinzugezogenes Personal konnte den Mangel nicht beseitigen.

Great location, ok hotel
Pros:

Location was excellent and the hotel was clean

Cons:

We got surprised with the fact that the room didn’t have any windows. Service was friendly most of the time, but very people depended. As an example, we were given wrong room keys upon arrival by staff, and had to switch rooms after already opening luggages etc instead of hotel dealing with this flexibly.
