Outdated room and interior and not the vintage outdated type. The dirty carpet and bad shower type. The type that your clothes start stinking of fried food while you have breakfast. Definitely not a five star hotel. Even worse the service was terrible. We were placed in a room and next morning we were told we need to move to another room. We refused to move and the manager said he would call the police. We told him we would be happy to talk to the police. At that point he called someone and the problem was resolved.

I only spent one night at the Grand Palace Hotel, but both the staff and the property were wonderful. The location is perfect, with easy access to the best spots in Riga. I’d highly recommend it and would love to return for a longer stay.

Exceptional hotel in all respects. Located in the old city which is perfect for sightseeing. The hotel is superbly arranged with a gracious breakfast room. The staff is warm and welcoming, always ready to help with the smallest questions. The bed was super comfortable. Highly recommended

The hotel is in the heart of the old town and about a 15min walk from the train station. It is a luxurious place to stay, with a large room and bed, underfloor heating in the bathroom and friendly staff.

Lovely hotel. Spacious & comfortable room. Great breakfast. Would have preferred a separate shower cubicle in place of a shower over the bath. Would also have been nice to have a separate sitting area in the hotel lobby, for relaxing and reading, etc. But these are minor quibbles in what was, overall, an excellent stay.

My only complaint is that they put us in a second floor room that faced ongoing construction which started at 7 am. When I asked for another room, the hotel said it was fully booked.

It’s a lovely property, and my room was the most spacious I’ve had on this two month trip. Breakfast is excellent, including various dishes, made to order by a chef. My only quibbles would be that it’s slightly cumbersome to get to rooms on the far side of the hotel, and the spa is pretty lame—just a sauna.

Peaceful and compact hotel, conveniently located in the old town. Incredibly helpful and kind staff, lovely sauna, and comfortable bed. Slept like a rock! I’d make a point to stay here again if I return to Riga.

Nice place, parking sucked, room was average

AC did not work in room. Parking is a 6 minute walk away in an unsecured lot. It was dumping rain when we arrived late at night with our bags so having to run through the streets was a less than ideal.
