My husband and me just arrived from Riga, where we stayed in "Riverside Hotel". First of all, a few words about service: from the very first enquiry e-mail untill the last day all hotel staff was very helpful: they gave necessary info about the location, conditions (which are all true), staying details and some tips about currency (where it is better to exchange it, how much does taxi transfer cost (from airport to the hotel appr.10LVL; from hotel to the city centre 4-5LVL; be careful, taxi drivers can cheat). At the reception they all speak three languages: latvian, english and russian. They give the map of Riga, point places you are interested/would be interested in and give all the info about public transport. Bus cost 0.7LVL. Mini-bus - 2LVL. Waiting time for taxi is 3-5minutes. Our room was very tidy, good smell, quite (there is a parking behind the hotel), good lighting, TV, safe, good cotton bedclothes. Bathroom is very clean as well; there is shower cabin. Room service is very good. Breakfast: from Monday to Friday untill 10a.m.; Saturday and Sunday untill 11a.m. Very good hot buffet: fried eggs, sausages, pancakes, 3-4 kinds of jams, salads, fresh vegies and fruits, pie, 2 kinds of bread, cheese,cereals, juice, coffee and tea. The hotel is just 4 blocks from the city centre, which takes about 15min of walk, or 1-2 bus stops. I certainly recommend this Hotel: it is a very good cheap alternative not far from city centre with friendly and warm atmosphere.
