Location

"The location is fantastic and it is so secure which was great" Julia, Essex, UK (More from Julia below)

The main advantage of this apartment is its superb location.

Just 5 minutes stroll from the famous Riga “Old Town” (Vecriga) our apartment suite is situated on the third floor of an equally brand new sparkling modern glass building overlooking the “Daugava”, Riga’s equivalent of the River Thames of London.

Sandwiched perfectly between the International Embassies, overlooking the private Marina, and just a few minutes walk straight into the very centre of Riga’s Tourist District, it could not be better located.

Take a 2 minute walk down the Embankment, turn left past the President’s Residence and you will find yourself right in the middle of Riga’s most exclusive Shopping Centre, Restaurants & Nightlife. Within 5 minutes you will arrive along one of the seven streets that bring you to the “Doma Laukums” Square with its huge Cathedral (the largest in the Baltics), open space, outdoor dining & its famous ‘Dome’ Steak House, where the very best steaks are served exactly to your preference. One minute further on into the centre and you will arrive at the “Livu Laukums” Square (below), with its Cafes and Bars (offering live music in the Summer months), relax with a drink as you soak up the atmosphere & admire the superb architecture of the surroundings.

"Riga. The Paris of the Baltics". The Perfect Escape

"Your apartment in Latvia is a credit, the place is lovely. Better than a hotel room" Ken, Liverpool, UK (More from Ken below)

Riga truly is an undiscovered jewel of the “New Europe” with a depth of history & dozens of activities. Plan to dine “alfresco” in the Summer months in one of the numerous “Laukums” or Squares, where many Restaurants provide live music whilst you dine at remarkably low prices. Take the toepath from outside the Apartment down passed the River where you can stop off at one of many of the small bars or cafeterias for a very inexpensive speciality coffee or a pint of the local brew. Or take a boat trip along the River, which provide everything from the “Tourist Tour” to full on board 5 star cuisine & service. Or just perhaps a rowing boat or a "pedallo" for two along the "Pilsetas Kanals", the small tributary river that divides the Riga Old Town (Vecriga) from the main suburbs and shops. For the culturally minded there is the National Opera House (photo below). And of course there is the usual attractions of the Riga nightlife with its nightclubs and late night bars.

The beach is in fact just 20 km North where you will find some of the most expensive vacation villas of the “Russian Rich”.

Feedback and recent guests' genuine comments about our apartment in Riga.....

Julia, Essex UK

We had a great stay in Riga. The apartment had everything we needed. The location is fantastic and it is so secure which was great. Thanks again! I would certainly recommend it to anyone I know who plans to visit Riga

Kimberly Colorado, USA

Our trip to Latvia was incredible! The apartment was comfortable, clean, and so convenient! The view of the river was wonderful. We even got to see fireworks over the river one night (I've included our photo of them below) Wireless internet was a plus.

Simon was so helpful before we left for our trip with advice, recommendations, and flexible pay options. Be sure to go to Alus Seta in Old Town! Tasty cafeteria style food at a good price. Katija at the Visitor's Center was also a great help. She speaks wonderful English (which we needed desperately) and was able to be our translator to find our relatives. Thank you Simon!

Ken, Liverpool, UK

Your apartment in Latvia is a credit, the place is lovely. Better than a few hotels we saw in the area. Your local agent was very helpful and spoke great English. We hope to go again in the near future. Just my partner and myself for a long weekend and would love to rent the apartment again if available. Please find enclosed some photos of our trip (below)
