The 18 best rooftop spots in Riga

Breathtaking Views & Amazing Cocktails! Located on the 26th floor of a hotel, this place offers incredible panoramic views of Riga. The service is friendly and professional, and the cocktails are not only delicious but also beautifully presented. A perfect spot for a sunset drink or a special evening out. Highly recommended! 🍸🌆✨

Skyline offered views that easily justified one visit, with a wide panorama across Riga that looked especially sharp at night when the city lights were out. Beyond the view, the experience was much less impressive. The bar felt dated in its layout and atmosphere, with very little energy in the room. On the evening I visited, it was quiet to the point of feeling empty, which took away the buzz you expect from a rooftop venue. Drinks were competent. Service was polite & nice. The bar gave the impression of having had better days in the past but now being a space that people go to once for the view rather than as a place to spend the evening. It was fine for the outlook, though the experience itself was flat.

Great bar to have a drink and a bite while you look at the Riga landscape (or sunset if you catch it). The bar is fancy but not extremely. Prices are reasonable given the kinda exclusive view you are offered and the quality of the food/cocktails. Even the elevator has a great view. Cheers.

I just came for a drink. The place is located within the Raddison hotel, just take the lift to the 26th floor. You can choose where to sit and a waitress comes to take your order. Variety of cocktails which were nice. Yes it’s pricier than other places but you’re paying premium for the lovely views and cute ambiance. I recommend to sit on the left hand side when you enter the bar for better views at night.

A modern, stylish and welcoming space, with fast service, cleanliness and prices, but especially with a stunning panoramic view of Riga, this place has almost everything one could wish for. Skyline Bar is worth a visit.

The view from the highest floor of The hotel is amazing thats on the top of exotic drinks and asian style food. I have loved everything Pretty waitress 🥰

These peeps can make a cocktail. Top notch. The view is very good. You can walk around to get a 360. I should have gone back for the evening lights. Went at dusk and sat with the sun beaming down on me. You don't need to spend more than an hour up there but it's a great view and worth doing.

We visited this restaurant for a team-building lunch, and it was a wonderful experience. The starters were amazing—so much so that they were gone before I even had a chance to take a photo! The main course was very tasty as well. While a few colleagues had some minor comments or preferences, those were really just small details and didn’t take away from the overall enjoyment. The dessert was a highlight and truly brought everything together—it was simply delightful. We also appreciated the lovely complimentary treat at the end. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here and would recommend this place for both a romantic evening or a gathering with a larger group. It’s especially charming in good weather, but I imagine that even watching a thunderstorm roll in over the rooftops of Riga would be a memorable experience.

Great rooftop in Riga. We came here to have dessert and some drinks. The dessert was extremely scrumptious, the drinks were all unique. Great service from Lucas, who went above and beyond, exceeding all of our expectations. The view is also very nice. Perfect for sunsets. If you want to make sure there is a table for you, we do recommend making a reservation as we were lucky but many behind us were not able to get a table.

Herbārijs offered excellent views across Riga, with a setting that was both stylish and relaxed. The drinks were very well made, balanced and creative, and the food matched the same quality. The staff were enthusiastic and engaged, which added to the overall experience and made the visit more memorable. The space itself had an energy that many other rooftops lacked, combining good design with a lively crowd. It was the kind of place that worked equally well for daytime or evening visits, and it stood out as one of the more complete rooftop experiences in the city.

Lovely location with tasty bites and great cocktails. The two appetizers I ordered (beef tartare and duck spring rolls) were delicious and filling, and I loved the rhubarb and lemongrass cocktail so much that I had to order a second one. Perfect place to relax in the afternoon or evening.

Great for breakfast! The salad and sandwiches were tasty and the prices reasonable. Im surprised its not on more breakfast recc lists. At night only open until 22.00...

Herbārijs kafejnīca is a rooftop restaurant and bar in Riga, Latvia, located on top of a shopping mall. Following many recommendations, we visited after a long day of exploring the city for dinner and left satisfied. I had the pork ribs with French fries topped with cheese and truffles, which were nicely cooked. The highlight, though, is the view! The city looks amazing from here, especially at sunset. We visited on September 2nd, 2025, and were lucky to have surprisingly good weather. Recommended.

The restaurant is located on the 7th floor of a shopping mall and the indication is not very clear. After arriving on the 7th floor, you still need to use some stairs to reach the rooftop. The space is okay with the inside and the outside areas, and the view is fine, but the service is a mess done by a GenZ team, completely lost and in a bad mood. The kind of service/waiter that can't probably manage the tables and makes a face when you order "tap water", bringing one single glass of water even if your bill was more than 50€ and you are drinking wine. I had the duck croquettes as a starter and the tuna steak, being both good options for the dinner in Riga.

First day in Riga we were strolling through old Town and we spotted this restaurant located below Le Dome Hotel. Reviews seemed very promising so we gave it a try. Thankfully it was 5:30pm so we were given an early seating - prebook if planning an 8/8:30pm Dinner as they were fully booked both Friday and Saturday evening. We opted for the Chefs 5 course menu. By the end of it we were very happy with our choice . Awesome first impression 😋

The summer terrace of the restaurant is wonderful! Every month my friends and I go to one of the restaurants in Riga for new impressions and delicious food - and it was the right choice. Excellent service, original and delicious dishes, a magnificent view of the towers of the Old Town - all this made our visit unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Excellent. Food was really delicious and interesting as wine pairings too. First time in Riga service was also brilliant. Strong recommendations!

Fantastic! One of the best if not the best food in Old Town. Set in one of Riga’s oldest buildings, nestled below and attached to a boutique hotel, this is a high end food experience. A la carte available as well as tasting menus, which I’m excited to have when they switch over to their Fall menu. Solid cocktails, and superb service. Bonus - cigar room below the restaurant in a VIP room with old brick arches and delicious spirits. Make sure to make reservations!

A fabulous French Michelin 5-star dining experience! Every detail was perfection from the exquisite surprise 5-course menu to the impeccable service by Alex and Adrian. The caviar, Atlantic cod, and duck mains were absolute highlights. With beautiful floral touches that made our anniversary night unforgettable.

Interesting and great food. One of the best main dishes of my life (won’t spoil to anyone). Waiters were competent and good at English and took their time telling stories, answering questions and joking about. Wine menu was a great fit for the food. We were given Rīga Balsam made from birch wood as a digestif and the end of the five+ courses.

The food and service was amazing. Karlis was so knowledgeable and friendly as were all the staff. We went for restaurant week. The food was absolutely beautifully plated, and tasted delicious. The cocktails made with song cai gin were out of this world absolutely incredible. I’d highly recommend the basil one and the lucky one I don’t recall the name and le dome version Negroni. We will be back for sure!

Service was really nice and welcome 10/10 Location and view is amazing 10/10 Great place for evening cocktail after work. Food was not bad, but we were expecting something more.. We loved this place before pandemic times and now it was totally different.

Brilliantly designed mostly outdoor bar lounge situated right by the riverfront. The atmosphere oozes class and style, helping the guests get into a great vibe, yet feel comfortable all the same. The music here is world class with non-stop beats running all night into 4am. The drinks are smartly served from the huge bar islands and side tables to ease crowding that most of us hate in other bars. You are never more than 15 steps from large areas for mingling or dancing. Lighting is mostly pink, purple, blue with white furniture to provide a futuristic ambience for the young crowd.

Good food with a stunner view by the water! It was rather costly but I think it was worthy. Really enjoyed what I ate and the other things on the menu looked good. One bad thing was the big cruiser boats that sail past the view.

Nicely located, with lovely staff, I had dinner on their terrasse and ordered the lobster pasta with a cocktail. Both were good, nothing groundbreaking. Overall a good experience and I will be back.

Great place with outstanding food. In the summertime, the terrace turns into a outside bar/dance floor!

We love the orange tree here, where the kids can have fun and the staff don't say anything, thanks for that🌸 we can enjoy drinks and relax while the kids frolic on the swings and jump into the balls. The atmosphere is good.

Set in a great location with great views, ideal of on cruise ship. Great food & great service Will be back

Riga Island Hotel is a solid 4-star option with clean, comfortable rooms and easy access to the Old Town—around a 30–40 minute walk or just €4 by taxi using the Bolt app. The rooms were well-equipped with a TV, tea and coffee facilities, and everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The restaurant on the 9th floor served decent food and offered a lovely view across the river to the city centre. Breakfast included a good selection of hot and cold buffet items. The only downside was the reception bar, which was closed more often than open—so there wasn’t really a social area to sit and enjoy a drink in the evening. Overall, a good base for exploring Riga.

I stayed here with my family as a member of 37 strong group of tourists from India. I should admit that I had a pleasant stay here. The property has a luxurious look. Lobby and corridors were spacious. Overall, good ambience. Room was spacious with neat carpet and walls. Sufficient storage space was available for luggage bags. Tea kettle, iron and iorn board and fridge were also provided. Soffa set added to the comfort. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was neat with sparklingly clean tiles and sanitary fittings. Buffett dinner had vide variety of options for every type of guests. I would definitely recomend this hotel for any family looking for comfortable stay in Riga, Latvia.

Almost all of the staff at the front desk was very unpleasant and sometimes rude. We were lucky if the WiFi in the room even worked, let alone was strong enough to stream videos on YouTube and such. The breakfast, while not bad, was lacking and the quality of the food wasn’t up to par with the 4 star superior rating the hotel boasts about. For the lifts (there are two of theme) you wait for ages, and you better get the stairs. The bath wasn’t in the best shape and had a shower curtain, something you won’t see very much any more even in 3 star hotels. As such, this hotel is more up to par with 3 star hotels, and not the best ones of them.

Nice hotel but it has become old fashioned. Breakfast was really good and our room was nice. We paid 50€ per night which is a fair price as the hotel itself is old fashioned but for example in a really good location. The water pressure in the shower, was quite low.

This high quality 4 star hotel provides extremely slow or sometimes no wi-fi in the rooms. Furthermore, other facilities in the room or common spaces look rather like 2/3 star European hotel. That rating is highly misleading for potential customers and I have no idea how this place is classified so highly. The breakfasts are also nothing more than simple decent when it comes to the quality and variety of food. To conclude, there is nothing here that would justify they deserve 4*.

Modern Hotel, very nice and clean rooms, from some rooms you have a very nice view. Good Wifi, very god Breakfast with enough space for many Guests. Helpfull Staff, good tourist information: maps, brochures, etc.. Very short walk into the city or to the buses.

This is my go to hotel whenever I'm in Riga. The rooms are clean and have everything I need. The hotel serves great breakfasts too.

Wonderful experience here! The sake drink I had was incredible and the ramen was fabulous. Would definitely eat here again

Prestigious location in the heart of the city, offering panoramic views over parks and rooftops. The food is of excellent quality, though the portions—especially for the business lunch and tuna tataki—are on the smaller side. The matcha-flavoured tiramisu is a standout. Service is attentive and professional. However, the dining experience is let down by the presentation: being seated at a worn table with utensils placed directly on the surface feels careless and unhygienic. A simple upgrade, like adding stylish placemats and improving the table setting, would go a long way. The interior is dark and eclectic—definitely a matter of personal taste.

The location is in the heart of the city, offering beautiful views over parks and rooftops. The food (we tried ramen) was good, but not surprisingly good. But oysters surprised us 😍 overall - experience was very good. The waitress was very nice and attentive. Prices - very normal.

Stage at the Kempinski offered one of the best overall experiences in Riga. The views over the city were excellent, framed by a setting that was designed to make the most of them. The staff were professional and attentive without being overbearing, and they created a smooth, well-organised experience. The location itself was central and convenient, which added to the strength of the visit. Stage showed the standard you would expect from a hotel of this level, and it was executed properly in both service and atmosphere.

Wow wow wow. This restaurant sits atop the Kempinski Hotel in Riga. We visited in the evening so no view as such but during the day I’m sure the vista would be marvellous. So to the food. It was extremely good. Some of the freshest juiciest oysters I’ve ever eaten. Sweet succulent spider crab. The lobster tail was cooked to perfection. The accompanying bisque balanced yet punchy. Service was genuinely warm and welcoming. Price point pretty reasonable. By no means cheap even by western standards but it was worth every Euro.

I am sorry but I can only report considerable disappointment with this restaurant. We were there on a Tuesday night and there were only 3 other tables occupied. There was no reason for the service to be so poor. The waiters did not scan the restaurant and the only time we got service was when I waved them down, which we should never have to do. Frustratingly there was a compulsory 10% service charge which was the tip for the service. I don’t mind tipping, see my review of Bistro 18 in Vilnius, and when we gave the waiter the tip he said “Are you sure” as we were generous. I like to reward good service. I find compulsory tips result in poor service. I was also disappointed as the wine we purchased was available by the glass or bottle. We told the waiter we would buy the bottle but they charged us by the glass. Why not be honest. Don’t try to screw out every bit of money you can. That is disappointing. Lastly we have lived in Asia for a number of years, so we have a good understanding of Asian food and we also understand what Asian Fusion should be. But it should not be Asian food simplified, the richness and appeal should be there. Two of the meals we ordered were not available. My guess is this restaurant is not what it used to be.

Came here because there was an offer for a Rigas Restaurant Week. 3 course menu for 45EUR + vine menu for 18EUR. Food and vine selection were really good, but a service lacked. We were served by 3 ladies. One didn't speak Latvian (but this is a minor problem). Vine serving wasn't perfect, and waitress poured a wine over a table more than one time - leaving a drops there. Service person were kind and gentle, but a service was a bit sloppy. Wines paired with food came earlier or later. At the end of a meal, we were given a receipt, and it already included a 10% of a tip. We are not in USA, and a tip shouldn't be mandatory. Especially if there is a special promotion, and you are advertising fixed prices. I am a person that usually gives a tip based on experience, but I don't like if it gots asked. This has ruined completely our experience, and will make us not return to this place. Also, a music is a bit too loud and didn't allow freely speaking.

Cool bar with plentiful outside space, highly recommend stopping here for a beer or whatever other cultural opportunities are offered. There is a Lion and he is wearing a crown, which is not something I’ve ever said about a place in a Google review before.

This relaxed gathering place offers an extensive drink menu. Our group of 5 tried local beers, eldrrberry cider, and lemonade. We also brought our own snacks. Great outdoor setting with accessible tables, some in open air and some under a big umbrella. Indoor seating areas are comfy sofás and we found several people reading indoors so we sat outdoors. Nice evening and relaxed vibe. Great staff

Loved it. If you want a swanky cocktail bar don't go. If you want an artistic, community feel, very chilled, great craft beer, nice afternoon sun and music, go. And your are also supporting local arts by visiting. Sunday afternoon is good because there are some relaxed DJs playing. Don't forget to look up in the beer garden and see the enormous black lion. Super weird. It's not in the old town but do yourself a favor and get out of the old town and meet the people of Riga. They're nice. 😁

A cozy bar with a good selection of drinks and snacks. We spent a summer evening there enjoying a concert.

First time there. Looked like a cool cultural place to visit often if you live in Riga. Theu have drinks, food and plenty of events.

Great atmosphere and cool place. Attracts a younger crowd, but everyone welcome. A small dance floor with djs playing at night, and many seats in the outside area. Was a nice surprise to find this gem in the city!

my stay in Riga was short, but I really enjoyed visiting this place. it has a big menu with really cool options, the whole vibe is great, very chill. i totally recommend it

Beautiful view, good food, and a touch of elegance on the rooftop We arrived without a reservation and were lucky to get a table – a good start. The view over Riga’s rooftops is lovely, especially in the warm evening light. The service? Impeccable – attentive, fast, and with a smile. The food is good – nicely plated, with interesting combinations and clear attention to detail. Not exactly the kind of taste you’ll remember forever, but the colorful bread selection and the lobster risotto were the stars of the evening. Prices are a bit above average, but you’re also paying for the atmosphere. Would I come back? Yes – especially for a quiet evening with wine and a beautiful view.

Amazing view as restaurant is located on 5th floor. Service was kind and fast. Food was tasty. As it was restaurant week - had menu of 3 dishes. Dessert was a little bit too sweet but other dishes were fine.

Our small group stopped by here for supper the other night. What a great spot! The rooftop restaurant (go in the main entrance of the hotel, take the elevator to the 5th floor) has an amazing view, and on nice warm days, can retract part of the roof. We had a great waiter and seats by the window. Their menu has a silhouette of the city with numbers so you can identify everything you see - great idea. The food was delicious and was presented very well. I will say that although a few items may be a bit overpriced, the view/location is worth it. The steaks were cooked perfectly and the Strawberry soup with a scoop of ice cream and waffle was delicious. We finished off the meal with a serving of Black Currant Balsam. The entrance to the hotel is tucked in the alley just off a main road from the square. Thanks for the great meal. Definitely recommended.

Lovely rooftop restaurant with stunning food, great service and wonderful views. The restaurant had a canopy extended and heaters available when we visited to ensure comfortable temperatures on a chilly evening. The service was excellent and the food was superb. Well worth a visit if you are in Riga

Atmospheric place, beautiful view from the window. good service, good cuisine. Octopus was excellent. One of two steaks (medium rare ordered) was overcooked. Tartars were completely unbalanced , there were too many capers. I do not recommend carpaccio either for the very same reason (half of the portion was in capers as you can see it in the photo). It has to be corrected adjusted definitely. Though desserts were just fine.

We came here for a friend’s bachelorette lunch and it could not have been more beautiful. The food was fresh, delicious, and surprisingly affordable, with every plate tasting as good as it looked. The staff were so kind and attentive, even opening the windows to bring in more breeze since it was a warm day, such a thoughtful touch that made us feel truly taken care of. The views of Riga from the rooftop are breathtaking, easily some of the best in the city. It genuinely does not even match the hotel below. The rooftop feels like its own magical, chic destination. Everything was literally perfect, from the service to the food to the atmosphere. I highly recommend it. This rooftop is a must visit while in Riga.

Almost every time we visit Riga we stay at the Gutenbergs Hotel and of course visit the rooftop restaurant. A stunning place with a wonderful view of the Dome Cathedral and the rooftops of the Old Town. The cuisine matches the high standard of the restaurant.

The atmosphere is amazing! Definitely worth a visit, I can recommend getting kvas (non alcoholic) even though they don’t have it on tap the bottle is of a great quality! Rose gin&tonic is also a perfect drink if you don’t know what to get 👌🏻

This bar was situated on the corner near our accommodation. We loved it so much we ate here twice. Fantastic atmosphere. The vodka shot that came with this burger was the best I've tasted. The burgers themselves were great. We did have a little wait the second visit but that was because it was busy. Great bar, friendly staff. Well worth a visit.

such a good atmosphere! loved every minute spent inside. went just to take a shelter from a storm but stayed for long time. the bartender was super friendly and the music was great

Great place to have a drink! I recommend typical latvia drink-hot balsam. It seems to be in Russia or comunistic Poland. Or just Sovietic Union again 😉 You have there a lot of things from that time. Good sweet potatoe fries! And good portion for this money. Recommend for everyone, close to the city center, nice atmosphere and place different than typical bars nowadays...

A cozy, old fashioned gastro pub serving traditional Russian cuisine classics and reasonably-priced drinks. Decoration and atmosphere are pretty cool but our dishes took almost an hour (on a quiet Sunday night) and were just OK when they did - Nothing special. Bottom line: Visit in a group for a fun bar game night and some snacks, just don't do it hungry.

My partner and I really enjoyed this Cafe. €7.50 for the Moscow burger which included a shot of vodka, chips and some gherkins. Nice decor and music. You order at the bar.

History breathing place with original decor, professional and kind staff. A lot of space and tables. Special place to have a rest with friends and listen rock music. Acceptable prices, tasty food and drinks. Don’t go pass. Come in and have a rest ;)

This is a pretty place, but like much of the Riga center has lost a lot of tenants. You can still get a nice meal here. There is a nice sized Rimi for foodstuffs. H&M also has a store here. The upper floors are now occupied by a fitness center. Very clean, modern, and large WCs are on floor 7. Great place to kill time, shop for food, grab a snack or complete meal, and get out of the often cold or rainy outside.

Galerija Rīga is a great shopping mall in the heart of Riga. It offers a wide variety of stores and international brands. The atmosphere is modern and pleasant, perfect for shopping. Most importantly, the prices are very reasonable and affordable.

Packed with stores and fashion, mostly for women. Gorgeous rooftop terrace options for cocktails, drinks and food. Massive, fully equipped fitness center/gym available for monthly or 6 month contracts. Nice and easy to navigate on weekdays.

Not too big, but enough for a quick shopping and have some meal.

Expensive parking if you need more than 1 hour, even for EV charging you have to pay for parking as well. Not so popular and good shops as in other bigger malls. So not my favorite for sure.

Excellent, clean and good variety.

A very nice place to pop in for shopping and meeting with colleagues while sushiing❤️ That was yummy ❤️

Really nicely and classically laid out department store and a very clean food hall with a wide variety of products which are clearly labelled, in Latvian. Despite the fact that I can't speak or understand Latvian I managed, with the kind help of the Stockmann staff, to find everything I wanted and buy what I needed. The department store is very classy and it's well worth popping in to have a look at the good quality clothes and houseware they have - including a sauna section (for accessories - I don't think they actually sell saunas).

I love shopping at Stockmann Riga! Please bring more of the BUBS skull candies (especially the pink and blue ones) —they are always sold outt.

My first encounter with them was months ago in HEL, and again, entered their food mart at the ground floor. What can I say, all food from the Baltic region is avail, really loved their fresh fish and salads, drinks and international deli. Who said that the heydays of department stores would be over? As long as Stockmann, next to others, offers such a nice range of food, I'll get there:-)

Lively and has great selection. I was a little disappointed with their shoe department, it’s virtually non-existent. The staff is very good, all speak Russian fluently and with pleasure. The store is posh and expensive but offers rewards to regular customers with loyalty cards, which is a bonus!

Extremely negative experience with Stockmann’s food section and customer service. On Wednesday, I bought prosciutto and cheese – when I opened them at home, both products were spoiled, moldy, and smelling bad. When I contacted customer service, the only response was that they “found nothing wrong” and suggested I bring the rotten package back. Is it really normal to expect a customer to carry stinking, moldy meat around just because the store refuses to admit fault? And that wasn’t all. On the same day, I bought two baguettes for €1.10 each. I asked to have one sliced, and suddenly the price jumped to €1.65. When I asked why, the saleswoman arrogantly replied that one was “on discount” and the other wasn’t. But both baguettes were identical – the only difference was that one was cut. This is clear customer deception. Overall, it feels like Stockmann management lives in a bubble, believing customers should be grateful for their so-called “high quality.” In reality, the products are spoiled, prices are inconsistent, and customer service completely ignores problems. No respect for customers – just empty rhetoric and no willingness to solve issues. If this is what Stockmann calls “high quality,” then thank you – I don’t need it.

I have been doing my routine grocery shopping on the first floor for a year. The shopping environment is much more pleasant than other stores such as Rimi. There is also a lower chance of encountering uncivilized customers than in Rimi. I like the wide variety of food there and the hospitality of the shop assistants at the cashier. There is a great variety of imported food, for prices lower than those in Rimi. The variety of fruits and vegetables cannot match up to Rimi though, mainly due to a smaller customer base. But Stockmann always tries to keep the vegetables fresh as much as possible. You won’t find molded ones as in Rimi. I can find discounts in Stockmann very often.

Great selection of goods, good grocery store, you will likely find most food items for various world cuisine cooking. Overall It’s ridiculously overpriced in comparison to branded goods I buy in london but I guess that’s the price for stocking items Has a good canteen on top floor with nice views and good lunch menu

This was our second stay at the Grand Kempinski in Riga. The rooms are clean and beautiful with good air conditioning. The breakfast is delicious and the upstairs restaurant is great. It is the people working here that make staying at the Kempinski exceptional. From a warm welcome to extremely helpful front desk associates to having your coffee preference remembered at breakfast, the employees here elevate the experience. I highly recommend and plan to return when visiting Riga again.

Stayed here recently for a 10 day stay for business and had an amazing stay. The spa was a welcome respite from a long day of meetings and report writing. The location to surrounding attractions, restaurants, and grocery stores is ideal for a long stay. The service is highly professional and excellent, I felt welcomed from the moment I stepped into the lobby. I want to especially commend the hostess at breakfast and her entire team of wait staff who made breakfast truly enjoyable every morning. She greeted me every morning with a smile, remembered my preferred table and my hot green tea which I enjoy greatly. The wait staff was quick with their service, removing my plate when I was finished and asking if I needed anything. I normally do not eat breakfast but eating breakfast here was the highlight of my stay every day. I also wanted to thank the spa staff for maintaining the spa so clean and welcoming. I had a massage while I was there and it was a great experience. The masseuse was very professional and knowledgeable about deep tissue, you cannot go wrong with spa services here. Thank you to Grand Hotel Kempinski for a very wonderful stay and will definitely choose this hotel for future stays in Riga, that is a promise.

It’s very nice and Probably Riga’s best hotel in terms of stars/price range (there is no real ultra luxury competition) but not without its flaws. Check-in was excellent with a lovely charming French lady (Emilie), a really positive, kind, engaging professional welcome. Stayed in a Junior Suite which was very nice, good view and flawless in terms of hard product. Pool/Spa area very nice and service very nice. Stage 22 restaurant/bar very nice and good quality food/cocktails and lovely service - Lobster sandwich was outstanding. Unfortunately on first night my bill included some items I don’t order which was disappointing- they apologized and removed but shouldn’t happen here especially tired travelers should not need to double check their bills. What didn’t I like - well let’s talk about breakfast and Eggs Benedict / Avocado Egg Toast. It was disappointing. We ordered eggs Benedict and avocado with egg. Both came with hard boiled eggs. The staff were all very pleasant but there seemed a lack of oversight or training. Even when I asked to change it they asked what was wrong. The second attempt was better in egg cooking but swimming in very thick hollandaise. Not pleasant. I didn’t risk it the second morning and just ordered fried eggs (which were perfect). That said, the service was all very pleasant and proactive and everyone was kind, despite they can’t match what they aim to offer in the a la carte selection. Concierge/Bellboys were very nice and knowledgeable- had a few casual conversations with them and they clearly enjoyed their jobs and were super nice. Would I stay again, yes as I’m in Riga quite regularly.

Best luxury hotel in Riga - lived up to expectations. Helpful, professional, well informed and friendly front desk, breakfast and spa staff. The deluxe king room was plush and spacious. We look forward to returning.

This was a business trip, but I had time to explore the city and relax. I was very pleased with all the hotel services and the staff's approach. The room was comfortable, the food was good, and the cleanliness was excellent. I congratulate the management for this excellent and professional management. By the way, it's a great location for travelers.

Come here very often for Sunday Brunch, was always high quality, and today was sooo extremely disappointed. Could believe my self how poore quality it become. Food court plates was not filled up- mostly all empty, food quality soo cheap, service personal without experience. Definitely will not come here anymore . Very BAD SUNDAY BRUNCH. My child love eggs and omelete but this he could eat at all.

I would like to thank all the staff of the Kempinski Hotel Riga — this is the best hotel I have ever stayed at in Latvia. I highly recommend visiting it; you will definitely be impressed. I wish you continued success and prosperity.

Beautiful bridge with great views of Riga! I walked across Vansu Bridge at sunset and the panorama over the Daugava River and Old Town was stunning. It’s not just a functional part of the city, but also a perfect spot for photos and peaceful walks. A must-see when visiting Riga!

It is quite nice area on the both sides of the bridge for a city viewing.

Beatiful atmosphere, buildings. Great place to go for a walk to look at the water. Loud

Nice bridge across the River Daugava. Busy traffic and a key part of infrastructure in Rīga. Walking and cycling across the bridge is also available. Currently (October 2023) the footpath along the side has partly fallen away with holes down into the river! However I'm sure these will be sorted shortly.

Bridge itself is nice, but nothing spectacular. What was however beautiful was the views. Seeing Riga Castle and all the other towers just reflecting on Daugava river was so much worth.

The bridge looks nice and you can use it's pedestrian side to walk from old town to the other side of the river where you can find a beach area + activities. It was built during Soviet times in 1981, for sure looking ahead of its time. But it is extremely sad if you see the bridge conditions, just walk below the bridge and it's in need of maintenance on a level that makes you think it's even dangerous, I hope government will do something about it.

The metal rails of the bridge are rusted and fractured to a point in which secondary protective rails have been needed to add into the middle of the walking lane. This limits the walking section into a dangerously narrow corridor, right next to the high speed car lane. Every passing bicycle and other light vehicle is a high risk event. Wouldn't recommend crossing the bridge outside a car for anyone.

It's actually a medium size mall in the city centre. It's was just a nice hide away when the weahther is cold & wet outside. The mall is well maintained & clean, not too much walking required. don't miss the good quality food court on the top floor.

Placed well in the center of the old town. Has a beautiful food hall at the top floor, local and international cuisine. Shops are very limited, there are better options in Riga. Galerija is located behind the cathedral

We recently visited the shopping center with the whole family. I remember when I was a little girl we would come to the department store and our eyes would run wild from the huge number of shops and cafes. What did we see now? A pitiful sight, most of the shops have been liquidated, only a few shops remain, of all this the only thing that pleased us was the cafe on the top floor, a large selection of home-cooked food. It is really sad that such a beautiful historical department store is dying out and no longer attracts many tourists as it used to.

A supermarket with a long history. Well decorated, you can buy clothes and cosmetics, the grocery store is very small, but on the top floor there is a pleasant foodcourt with a wide selection of food and a fantastic view of Riga if you go out on the balcony. Unfortunately, the toilets are worn out in 2025 (but in the foodcourt for the entire crowd only 2 toilets). Beautiful, old stairs.

Not many shops. Quite high end, except H&M.

Great mall, especially I liked its food court area which looks really good and even has a DJ

Nice and lovely shopping centre located at Riga Old Town. It has many choices like H&M, Rimi, Douglas etc. The place is beautiful and well-decorated. There’s fitness center too at the 5th floor. Many services available as well, a very convenient place to stop for shopping. Nice experience.

Would not rate this as a 5-star hotel. Miles apart from other Pullmans we've visited. On arrival, there were multiple silverfishes in our room and the smell from the recent renovation was quite unpleasant. Staff was nice. Spa is quite small but pleasant. The windows do not offer daylight and the rooms were dark. The sink is located outside the bathroom close to the bed. Overall I would not visit here again and go for the Hilton instead. Usually I prefer Pullmans, but not this time.

I recently stayed at the Pullman and was quite disappointed with the overall experience. For a hotel that presents itself as five star, the standards fell significantly short. Breakfast: The breakfast selection was very poor. There was minimal variety, only basic types of cheese, limited options overall, and most items such as jams and cereals were left uncovered and exposed to air. It was quite apparent that some food was being reused; on the third day, I received a croissant that was completely dried out, clearly not fresh. By the last day, we decided to skip breakfast altogether, something I have never done before while staying at a hotel, simply because the repetitive options, mainly eggs and bacon, became unappealing. Room: The room layout was odd, with wooden flooring abruptly transitioning into ceramic tiles. The underfloor heating only worked on a small part of the tiled area, leaving the rest of the room cold. Adjusting the temperature settings did not seem to have any effect, which made the stay uncomfortable. We also noticed small bugs coming from the wooden floor, which was quite unpleasant and added to the overall discomfort. Bathroom: The shower area felt low budget, and the toiletries provided were disappointing. The shampoo and body wash were clearly the same product. For a property claiming luxury status, these details made a poor impression. Positives: The hotel staff were polite, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay, and the location is convenient for exploring the area. Overall: While the staff and location are positives, the quality of the rooms, breakfast, and overall experience are far below what one would expect from a five star Pullman property. This stay did not meet expectations, and I would not consider returning

It'll be easier to do this in bullet points: 1) The hotel is well located; however, accessing it by transport is NOT possible. I was greeted by a policeman who said to turn around immediately if I didn't want to get fined. This was particularly saddening, since both my girlfriend and I had had recent back injuries, unrelated to each other, which made moving in and out of the hotel significantly more difficult. 2) On-site parking is false. They tell you to use Europark around the corner, which may or may not be full depending on the day. 3) The room was dark, and the window faced a very rundown backyard overlooking balconies that could fall at any second. 4) The shower has mould, which is unsurprising because the ventilation doesn't work. Do not mix it with the air conditioning unit, which works very well. The towels between uses were not dry. The first use was around 18:00, and the other, the next morning, was around. 13:00. 5) Shower gel and shampoo bottles seem to hold the same stuff, which made washing hair rather problematic. Which brings us to the next point: the hair dryer is underpowered. 6) The room in general was roomy; however, it could use a refresh. Some maintenance guys were seen to be at work, so maybe they haven't reached that room just yet. 7) The bed was comfortable, and the pillows were nice. 8) The breakfast was lovely, and the staff was forthcoming; however, I did see another guest have to fight about what he ordered from the on-site breakfast chef. 9) A positive point: the room was quiet. 10) WC: The toilet was not mounted properly. I, with my ~85 kg weight, was a bit afraid to sit on it, since it moved. The button to flush the water was not properly attached to the wall. When you pressed the water button to flush, there was a 9/10 chance the water would keep flowing down the drain if no one stopped it by repeatedly pressing the button. 11) A positive note: we were given late check-out without extra fees.

Nice hotel with location very close to old city. But note, that You can not drive direct to the hotel door. Also my suggestion is that the overall experience does not fit to 5* hotel - probably formally the regulations are met - there is an small swimming pool also You will get a sparkling wine at the breakfast, but my opinion - it is an good 4* hotel. Anyway - the price is reasonable and location great. Also the inhouse restaurant offer nice menu worth to taste

The hotel lobby was very nice and presented well. The gym and sauna was good but the pool was quite small. It was in a great location of the city. The rooms were okay however the shower had mould on the silicone and the door did not fully close, this caused water to seep outside the shower and almost flood the bathroom floor (room 553). The food and drink seemed very expensive however I cannot comment on the quality as I didn’t dine here but the cost of the room was very good value for money. I would recommend staying here and the comments about the shower may seem very harsh as to why I docked it a star, however for a 5 star hotel I wouldn’t expect this. The hotel also let us store our backs after checkout so we could go out and carry on our adventures in Riga. Overall a decent/good experience.

Excellent hotel in the old town edge, which means taxis can easily reach there while hotel guests can also easily go sightseeing in the Riga old town. Walkable distance to Olympia Outlet (crossing the Vanšu Bridge). Nice and clean pool and sauna, just like the pictures shown in the other reviews.

Our stay at the Pullman Riga Old Town was wonderful. The room was beautiful, the bathroom was well-equipped and we slept very well. Breakfast was exceptional. The hotel staff gave us a very warm welcome. However, for security reasons, as the hotel is near the national parliament, cars are not allowed onto the street in front of the hotel, even for drop-off. The nearest parking is in a public garage around the corner from the hotel, separated by a somewhat confusing walking route.

We chose RIH Terrace restaurant for our dinner party because of the picturesque views and the fact that it’s one of the few places that stays open later in the evening than other restaurants, because our previous engagement ended somewhat late. So glad that we ended up choosing this place for our dinner because we had a lovely dining experience. Our waiter was attentive and professional, but the same could be said about all the waiters on the floor, since everyone took notice of the empty plates or glasses. The food was amazing, everyone absolutely enjoyed it. My star of the night, however, was their chocolate fondant, that was heavenly. And the spectacular views of Riga during sunset was the cherry on top. To summarise, we had an excellent time at RIH Terrace restaurant and I would absolutely love to return there. Thank you!

Salmon fillet with potato mushroom was excellent, but some of my companions didn't like the food. Service was good, nothing special. We waited the food for an hour but there was some birthday celebration going on the same time. Views were good and you can see the city of Rīga from the table.

Very tasty food,fantastic service beautiful atmosphere second time here 10/10

Exceptional views, food and service. Chicken burger was delicious and prices were reasonable.

Restaurant with an amazing view over the city of Riga. Food and service has an eastern European touch. 🙃

Beautiful music, views to busy Riga and of course food.

The food and service were excellent. It both tasted and looked amazing. The view is also beautiful.

The first three nights were very nice—peaceful and comfortable. Unfortunately, everything changed on the last night when a group of party guests was placed in the room next to us. From then on, sleeping was impossible due to loud bass-heavy music and dancing continuing well past midnight. This completely ruined our stay, especially with a late flight home the next day. The room itself was modern and comfortable, featuring a high-quality LG OLED TV and a Bose sound system. While this setup is great for enjoying media, it also means that if anyone plays loud music, the bass easily travels through the walls. A great sound system is a nice touch, but there should definitely be rules or limits for its use—especially at night. There were two private saunas available to book 24/7, which was a really nice feature. However, it was disappointing that the water bucket for pouring over the stones was missing, which is a basic expectation for a sauna experience. Breakfast was very nice, and the restaurant itself was perfectly fine. This could have been an excellent stay if not for the loud party next door and the poor attitude of the lady receptionist, who handled the situation badly and left me to deal with the disruptive guests on the lobby when they were asked to turn the music down. They were giving rude comments on me due to stopping their party.

The rooms are tasteful and stylish. They did an immaculate job renovating the entire building, and I loved the original wood floors. The staff are all friendly and helpful. The hotel breakfast quality and variety are both fantastic. There's a beautiful park across the street. It's a trendy neighborhood with so many good restaurants. The only fault I can find is with the design of the bathrooms, which lack counter or cabinet space of any kind.

We had a comfortable two nights stay here in December. The hotel room was ready at 10:30am when we arrived which was convenient, it was a clean and beautifully furnished room. The hotel sauna was a nice extra touch considering the freezing weather outside. There was a slight mistake/confusion as to whether the breakfast was included or not (the receptionist at check in telling us breakfast was included in our booking, then a different receptionist when checking out telling us it wasn’t)- but that was delt with gracefully and swiftly in the end.

The suite I booked was spacious, quiet, and comfortable. Although located in a residential area, the hotel is close to "central" Riga; you can easily walk to cafes, bars, restaurants, and many cultural attractions. All in all, I enjoyed my stay at A22 and would love to stay there again the next time I visit Riga.

The hotel is exceptionally well-equipped for anyone travelling with kids. In addition to the standard baby crib provided probably in most hotels they also had a baby bathtub, a potty, some shampoos/lotions for kids, a changing sheet and wet wipes, which I haven't come across in other hotels we've stayed at (mind you, we don't choose family friendly hotels, so things might be a bit different in hotels specifically aimed at families with kids). Additionally, a nice lady at the reception gifted our child a plush toy, which she was over the moon about. Very well done! Literally right across the road is a park with a fantastic new playground, which is another aspect making this a great choice for families. If truth be told, this was the main reason for our family choosing this hotel instead of a certain other hotel starting with H with great views of the old town rooftops ;) Plus, parking at A22 is way easier. The only downside for me personally were the motion sensor activated lights in the bathroom, which kept going off several times during the shower/bathing procedures so you had to open the door in pitch black and step outside to activate the lights once again. Especially with a baby I can see this being not ideal, luckily my child is a bit bigger and I didn't have to juggle a small baby and a slippery floor it pitch black. I can't recall any other hotel having a similar solution, and perhaps for a good reason :)

Amazing hotel, decor and design are not just for looks, the quality and engineering behind the rooms is to the highest standard. Staff are so professional and helpful. Breakfast is incredible. And old town is only a few minutes away. Overall a stunning boutique hotel with an Impressive history. Rooms are massive and much better than the pictures. Very happy with our choice for a quick stop in Riga

Recently we stayed here, and our experience was exceptional. The ambiance was both nice and cozy, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The service provided was outstanding, with attentive staff catering to every need, our compliments for the breakfast 🥞. You will choose whatever you want and restaurant offer also specials. One standout feature was the presence of a well-maintained steam room( need reservation before because it’s private for your visit and staff cleans every time after visitors), adding a luxurious touch to the overall experience. Overall, it was a delightful stay that exceeded expectations also good bonus that we like was audio system in rooms.

Nice terrace , Expensive drinks for the quality. I ordered a cocktail which was very bitter, and seems had no alcohol ( or very low amount), for 8 euros! My friend had a same experience. They should change the cocktails or call them alcohol-free!

Good bar on the 6th floor. When good weather nice places in terrace.

Nice view to the city center. I like it especially in the evenings. There are not many options in the menu. Some common cocktails, shakes, and snack. Suits well to visit before or after watching a movie in the cinema that is located right below this place. Great idea would be to invite your sweetheart to a late show of some romantic movie, and then get to this bar for a romantic continuation with a couple of cocktails in front of the night city view. Then make a little surprise with Swarovski earrings gift... and you will both remember that day forever!

Been here once before, place was great. Thought it would be perfect place to spend some time before I need to catch a bus... Got here a bit past 3pm ( bar opening for that day was 3pm also) but even until 3.45 the place was closed. I saw workers walking around but not opening the "door" over 45 min past. Sad and very disappointed.

Nice place, good prices, tables a bit dirty outside and waiter was not rushing to clean it. But overall impression is good

Nice view from bar terrace.

Excellent view of Riga, drinks are good too.
