Enjoyable stay would return again
Pros:

Excellent location in centre of old and new part of Riga giving plenty of choice for visiting restaurants, museums, churches, monuments a lovely park area is just over the road from hotel
The hotel does have a wonderful restaurant and we found all the staff exceptional
Stayed in a lovely room with good bathroom facilities

Cons:

Although the room was lovely it puts style over substance the wardrobe is small which is fine for a couple of days but would struggle for longer stays
The bed is large with a wooden four-poster bed, which I found difficult to get onto and knocked my legs on, I found mattress a little firm for me
The road noise is a bit of a problem even though the hotel try to minimise it by putting in secondary glazing.
