Stayed here about 4 years ago, and then suddenly the bank took possession and it was vacant for a number of years. As I had another visit of three days in Riga I thought I might revisit, as the last experience was a good one. I knew where it was so the distance from town did not concern me, and... More

We were on a road trip and stopped here for the night. Restaurant was quite elegant with large variaty of dishes. Recommending warm starter: salmon with potato pancakes. Staff was a bit slow, but not in a disturbing way. Got a feeling like they were still learning how to operate. Room we got was a basic, spacefull, clean, windows all... More

Went for a short three day city break and chose to stay in the Elefant hotel. It is located equidistant between the airport and the old town, slightly too far to walk into the city but there is a bus stop right outside the hotel where each fare is 0,7 lats. The bus takes 10-15mins but a taxi takes 5... More

We were transferred to this hotel from the sister hotel Gertrude on our first day. This is the one we should have stayed at, great hotel, food good, fantastic rooms but hotel is a little too far outside Riga for people that cannot walk. In saying that you can catch public transport, buses and tram not too far away. There... More

A very new hotel (by Riga standards). Close to Spice shopping Mall, and perfectly located for the airport. Not too close, not too far. A bit too far for a comfortable walk to the old town, but a 5-10 minute taxi ride. Would definately use it again.

We have just returned from a wonderful weekend in Latvia, we flew over a Beauty Trade show and stayed in the Elefant. The hotel is wonderfully chic, warm, modern and comfortable, the hotel staff are very friendly and attentive. We arrived from the airport at 11pm and were delighted with the large, bright spotless rooms with ceiling to floor windows... More

This hotel is lower priced compared to other hotels in the area. They have a great free breakfast buffet open most of the morning, a free gym and restaurant/bar. There is also someone to give massages, (for a fee). The rooms are the size you would expect in America. They also have an arrangement with a taxi service to get... More

The hotel is new and clean and the personnel was very nice with us. It is half the way from the airport to the centre of Riga, both of them easily reachable with taxis or even with public transports. The only thing that was a bit annoying was the price of extras. 3lvl for a toothbrush (4.5eur) and 6lat for... More

We have stayed in this hotel only one night. We stayed in a standard twinbed room for the price of EUR 42,00. The breakfast was included in the price. On our arrival we needed to park the car in the hotel garage. The additional cost for garage is 7 LVL what is about 10 EUR. In my opinion it is... More
