The shower cabin door leaves a gap when closed, so the entire bathroom floor fills with water when taking a shower.

The hotel is in a nice part of the city, close to the main square and right by the river. The staff was always friendly and helpful. It is worth choosing a room facing the river, because the view on the Danube is great. The room and bathroom were clean and spacious. The breakfast was good, with several options of cold and hot food.

We booked through booking and we selected the room with breakfast included. When we checked in the lady at the reception said without breakfast. We told her ehat we booked, she checked, apologised and confirmed that we have breakfast included. When going the morning at the break fast, the person there checking the rooms she said we do not have breakfast, so I asked her to check at the reception, that took a while for her, but we ate in the meantime. In looks good in the pictures, but the furniture in the rooms are worn out. The staff don’t speak English very well so when we ordered a small bottle of wine, they brought us a big one. The beds are comfortable and the view is quite nice.

The view was nice and also the bed were comfortable.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a hotel with a truly magnificent view of the Danube River. The location was absolutely stunning, and it added a touch of magic to my entire stay. The newly renovated rooms were modern and comfortable, providing a cozy retreat after a long day of exploring. The breakfast provided was delicious and satisfying, offering a variety of options to start the day off right. To top it all off, the hotel's restaurant served mouthwatering dinners that were a true delight for the taste buds. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a wonderful experience with a beautiful view, great breakfast, and tasty dinner options.

Nothing, loved everything

The location is perfect. The view towards the river amazing. Even thou the building is old, inside is fully renovated. The rooms where new and clean. Loved that they kept the old style elevators, reminded me of my first apartment in NY. Breakfast very good. Staff very friendly and spoke multiple languages.

Very nice, large and decorated room. Very helpful staff!

The fact that in an Executive Room bathroom the space between the bathtub and the wall was not covered, so when you took a shower all the water dripping from the wall got under the bathtub and into the middle of the bathroom. The fact that the 10% discount you get for the hotel restaurant was not applicable on the day of the checkout too. I'm not sure who in the hotel thought this was a good idea, but the reasonable thought would be that the restaurant would like to attract customers, wouldn't it? We were on the fence on where to eat dinner and chose somewhere else for this exact reason. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The view from the room. The cleanliness. The soundproofing - e.g. we didn't hear a peep from the party on the top floor even though you could loud and clearly hear it from the elevator. The extended parking availability.

As per previous reviews - breakfast could be better

Impressive landmark from previous times that has been renovated. Our suite had an amazing view and jacuzzi. Check in was smooth with very friendly English speaking staff. Also greatly located - few steps from the old town - and river front. Finally, our kids enjoyed the playground and the many playgrounds within walking distance from the hotel.

On weekends is difficult to park your car, as usually there are weddings, so there are a lot of cars till too late. Also breakfast needs better quality.

Good river view, comfortable rooms on upper floors. Good service and food in the restaurant.

Hopefully they maintain the hotel well because some items were broken or loose in the bathroom. The breakfast was to Bulgarian and Romanian style. I was missing some croissants or normal bread.

Very frendly Very nice room with a view.

The lack of original mid century desing in the rooms. The original rooms' and bathrooms' interiors were replaced with newer, featureless furniture, losing the charm and initial integrity with the whole architektural idea.

Grand Hotel Riga is a pearl of Eastern European socialistic modernizm. If you love vintage design, it will be a pleasure for you to see the original architekture decorations, as well as the first floor breakfast area. The elevators with the floor counting marker above the door gives a nostalgic thrill :) The hotel is located on Dunav's bank, and has a wonderful river view from the upper floors (there are balconies at the end of every corridor, so even if you stay on a lower floor, you can go with an elevator to the upper floors and enjoy :)). Unfortunately, the original interior of the rooms is gone, but they are still spacious and comfortable, so you can imagine how could it feel to stay there in the comunist era. The breakfast was abundant and wi-fi is very strong. We were staying there on Saturday's night and there was a prom on the ground floor, but it was not heard on the 6th floor. The parking is very spacious.

Wasn't a fan of the dark glitter flecked carpet or the black curtains. But the room was a good size.

The location and view from the room was great. The garden restaurant menu had a lot of choice. Pets can stay in the room.

Carpet could have been cleaner. This old Soviet era hotel is undergoing continuous renovation, so there's construction noise during the daytime. Front desk had no idea what nearby restaurants were open or if there was tourist cruise available. Hotel system was down at checkout and had to wait to pay for my minibar charges. My view is this hotel is a bit overpriced for services rendered.

View of the river is the selling point. Bed was comfortable but pillows were overstuffed and too fat to use for sleeping. Nice big shower separated from the rest of the bathroom.

all great
