Riga Islande Hotel with FREE parking
Really great stay-free parking polite service, good breakfast. only negative remark: the room was just too hot to sleep and there was no chance to open any window, but AC was not very effective even in maximum blow.

NB Hotel
The hotel is quiet and has good facilities. They offer a great breakfast. Room was clean but could use some repairs such as the caulking around the shower and the floor of the shower. The towels also need renovating. Overall we were happy with our choice.
