“Would like to return”

We were very pleased with our accomodations and the hotel staff was very polite and helpful and spoke English. The large bathroom was very well maintained and looked brand new. But the best of all was the restaurant. We enjoyed several dinners prepared beautifully and served with European flair. The morning brunch was included in the price and was far above the included brunches you receive at US hotels. Overall we were very satisfied and plan to stay again when we return to Riga.

“Worth it”

It's a very nice hotel. The only observations would be that the breakfast was more of 3 star hotel not 4. But otherwise the premises were very nice, lots of character. Staff helpful and location quite good as well.

“If you only ever eat one hotel breakfast....”

Fantastic breakfast! Gorgeous restaurant with delicious breads, hams, cheeses, sausages, eggs 4 ways, jams, fruits, vegetables, and even salmon and herring! It's a lovely old building with beautiful common areas and well heated rooms in winter. Eurpoa Royale is an easy walk to the Opera, the Old Town, or the train station. From the airport, take the 22 bus to the station area, and grab a taxi or leg it from there. Hotel staff is great, and even loaned us an umbrella in the rain. Rooms have a clean bathtub for soaking after a day of walking the cobbled streets of the Old Town.

“Tale of 2 Hotels”

There are 2 parts of the hotel, the beautiful old part with big old fashioned rooms and the new part with close to cheap Motel rooms. We were there a week and thanks to a review on the internet asked to move from our new crappy room on the 4th floor to the old part. After one night we moved to a 2 room suite suited to a top notch hotel. The problem is that there are so many tours passing through, you have to be lucky to get a good room. They have a public use PC in the lobby and intermittent free wifi in the rooms. All in all, considering the price and location, this hotel is a good choice. You can walk to the old city or central market and train station in a few minutes. The buffet breakfast was well maintained every day and had something for everyone.

“Beautiful Historic Hotel in Riga”

My family and I have visited Riga several times over the past years, but this was our first time at the Europa Hotel. The hotel is very beautiful, and almost feels like you are staying in a museum, yet it is comfortable and approachable. Our deluxe room was spacious and quiet, overlooking the interior courtyard. The food at Benjamins was delicious, and service excellent. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are in Latvia!

“No better place to stay in Riga”

My family (5 people) stayed there for 10 days in 3 separate rooms (2 Standard rooms and 1 Deluxe). Each room had its own charm but try to get one in the ‘old’ portion of the hotel to truly enjoy the palatial feel. The beds were a bit firm for my liking, but the rooms were very quiet and extremely comfortable. The little things like having a full armoire for clothing add to the charm. The A/C was icy cold (if you wanted it that way) and purred like a kitten all night. Don’t expect broadband speeds with the WIFI and the service was a bit iffy at times, but for checking email or general surfing it’s just fine. And don’t get too excited over the casino. This isn’t like Vegas so unless you really do have money to burn and don’t mind being intently watched... However Benjamins restaurant is absolutely perfect so save your money and enjoy a delicious meal or 3. The staff was top notch and went out of their way to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. The location in the city was ideal. Within easy walking distance of Old Riga and other shopping and fine dining. We go to Riga nearly every year, and this is the only place we will stay at from now on.

“Excellent stay in Riga”

We have just returned from an excellent stay in the city of Riga. Our hotel was not only in a very good situation with everywhere we wanted to go in a short walking distance but also very comfortable and charming as a hotel. The complimentary breakfasts offered a wide range of dishes and service was very efficient.We also ate 2 dinners in the Benjamin Restaurant which were of excellent quality and good value. All the staff in the hotel were corteous and helpful.A place we would definitely return to and recommend to friends.

“Great value in Riga”

The first impression of the hotel when taxi pulled up in main street was not great but when you go round corner into side street where main door is located it improves greatly. Receptionist was very friendly and spoke excellent English. Our room was huge bright and airy bathroom was enormous with separate bath and shower and was spotlessly clean. Buffet breakfast was adequate but not what you would want everyday for a week. Hotel location is great just a short walk in a straight line to old town. Great place for a short break/

“Will definately go back”

Booked into this hotel and really enjoyed it. The hotel is less than a mile from the centre of Riga - where everything happens. Room was spacious and of a high quality. Breakfasts were excellent - buffet style and typically Scandanavian. Hotel decor is fabulous - especially the originlal part of the property. All in all a great location to explore Riga.
