Neiburgs Hotel

I have travelled to more than one hundred countries and stayed in numerous hotels. Neiburgs is one of my favorites. It is located just behind the Riga Cathedral and is convenient to the old town sites. It has a very good restaurant attached to the hotel. Highly recommended its fish/seafood soup. Particular thanks to the restaurant staff Armands and Andris for their courtesy and professionalism.

Location was perfect. Room was clean and comfy. But it was not be able to part at the hotel. I had to park a car with extra pay at a parking lot 800m away from the hotel.

Beautifully restored heritage building in the center of old Riga. The classic feature of the original architecture have been preserved and complimented with a modern interior design with clean Nordic style. Rooms have a foldout sofa bed, great for families. Breakfast is simple but high quality ingredients and attentive staff. Recommend the fresh croissants and salmon and raspberry smoothies. Location in center of old town on a charming street just close enough to great restaurants and bars but quiet enough to get a good sleep.

We stayed in one of the top floor rooms with a loft bedroom, sleeper sofa and 1.5 baths. Perfect for us and our college age son. The kitchenette was very handy. They could improve the lighting which was dim throughout. The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly. The location was excellent. I would stay here again.

Location The location is perfect - right in the middle of the old town and also very close the river and only a 20mins walk to the centre of the city . It’s very easy to walk out and find food and drink and the historic sites . It was a €17 bolt ride from the airport (€10 back) so a nice cheap city to hotel route. It is on a busy street with bars open till 4am and at the weekends it is very noisy. With the windows closed it was okay but as it was 24 degrees when we stayed and the air con didn’t seem to click on we had to open the windows. That night it was 6am before we slept. Room We booked a standard room as part of a BA holiday. We were at the front of the hotel with excellent views. The room was small - maybe okay for a weekend or one business traveller. We had cooking facilities but no pans etc to use them. Fridge is large enough for left overs etc. bathroom had a full sized bath which is excellent. The bed was comfortable but the pillows hard - there didn’t seem to be a pillow menu. There isn’t any room service. Normal toiletries like shampoo conditioner etc were provided. Food and Drink Breakfast was part of our package and it was adequate. Some things were missing from a normal spread like cereals, cooked to order eggs and the bread selection was very basic. You help yourself to coffee which isn’t the normal experience for a hotel of y is levels they offer sparkling wine but only one glass and only at the weekends which is just odd (it was €21 for a bottle of local fizz at a local restaurant so but can probably buy for €6 so just odd to cut corners here). They had yogurt but only in juice jugs and not kept cold so I avoided. There is a restaurant which is only open Tuesday to Saturday and no bar / room service offered. 2 bottles of water and tea / coffee is provided in the room. Facilities There is a gym and spa but we didn’t t visit. Leaving We left our bags with reception while we had another hour in town. When we came back these were unattended in reception - we could have easily walked out with other people’s bags - this should be more secure. Bolt back to the airport was €10. Pls note that you have to walk to the other side of the occupation Museum to be picked up as the old town is pedestrianised.

the Neiburgs is situated in the heart of the Old town just down the road from the square. Perfect location very close to the Old Town and easily accessible on foot to the newer part of town. We had a twin bedded studio apartment at the back of the hotel. No noise but wasn’t sure if it was because we were there on a Monday night. Check in staff very helpful. The apartment was huge, a large spacious room which had everything you could think of amenities wise, from flannels, hairdryers, to plush bathrooms and slippers. It was spotlessly clean. Bathroom even had two sets of shampoos/shower gels, shower caps etc. Crisp white sheets, good pillows and comfy furniture. Kitchen area included complimentary waters, tea, coffee. We had 4 very large windows so light and airy. Breakfast was great, buffet with so many options, from fresh fruits, to smoked salmon, pastries and hot buffet choices. It was adequate. No options for bespoke omlettes. However, plenty of items to choose. My only gripe was no separate shower cubicle. Shower was over the bath, an adjustable head with excellent pressure. This hotel has old charm. Highly recommend.

Whilst it’s in a great location and a beautiful building, there’s a few things that could be better. I had a basic double room on the top floor. There was a large wooden beam/pole between the bed and the rest of the apartment which if you want the loo in the night adds a little adventure trying to navigate it! The seating area was lit by a pendant light right above it. I banged my head on it every time I stood up (I’m 5’3”!) It’s got a hob but no pans or utensils so guess that’s for show only? The air con unit was so noisy I couldn’t use it so just opened windows instead. Fine in April but can imagine it’d be a pain come the summer. Did report to staff as it was a v loud constant squeak! Staff were v nice and room was v clean, just think there’s some design flaws to my room!
