I returned home today from 3 nights 4 days in Riga, staying at the old riga hotel vecriga, what a great place. The hotel and staff were excellent, a great central location from where to explore many of Riga's sights. Even though you are only a couple of minutes from the city centre you did not hear any noise from... More

Hotel pages show nice photos of old spacy rooms, so I decided to book a suite. My fried took a std room. We stayed 4 nights. My suite was not any bigger or better than a std room. In fact it did not even meet the std room level in other hotels. Anyway, the price was higher. Minibar on the... More

We travelled in the end of April and had to book a room in last minute. Hotel Vecriga attracted attention by number of features: excellent location in the very centre of the Old City and very nice price, photos and reviews were excellent. Usually real rooms don't fully match the expectations, but the Hotel Vecriga was different case: cozy a... More

Given the price paid it is hard to fault the hotel but be prepared for basics. Having read some reviews mentioning heavenly beds, etc. my expectations were a bit disappointed. It is a good basic hotel in a very good location for leisure tourists. Don't bother paying for breakfast - a number of cafes nearby offer much better choice and... More

Hotel is placed in the middle of old town and is historical place. Fasade is really beautyful. Interiors are really awefull - the one who made redesign should be put into jail. Breakfest was nothing special and cofee aweful. But the sourroundings is really grate.

Having read all the positive reviews before booking, we were very disappointed by our experience. On arrival at 11am, we were told our room would not be available until 2:30pm. The room: poorly laid out, you practically trip over the bed on entry; the bathroom shower leaked like crazy, so we had to use all our towels each day to... More

We stayed in this hotel during a tree days, two night's stay in Riga in late November 2012. As we arrived before normal check-in, we didn't expect that we would be able to get our room, but we were told that the room was already cleaned, so we could move right in which was a relief for us. We got... More

We were four people together on a business trip, staying in four different rooms one night. One of our group complained that his room was very cold. Another colleague got a room without a window, but it had a glass door facing the atrium where everybody came and went. This room was also rather small. I was bothered by mosquitoes.... More
