The person who helped me check in was so nice! Very friendly and had helpful tips. Probably best customer service I've received in my trips to Rīga. Room was adequate. Definitely small. Only stayed for a night so not a big deal. Breakfast had a good variety. Great location. Can walk easily to main attractions.

Bathroom didn't smell the best and the room didn't look dusted. The tea cups especially had build up dust still in them.

The hotel is located in a very good's. Everything is accessible, cafes, shops, shopping centers, everything is within a short route. The staff is very friendly. The comfort corresponded to the stated room.

the fact that you can see a new construction site from the hotel window, but the soundproofing is very good - you couldn't hear the workers The breakfasts at the hotel are disgusting, the plates are dirty, There was not enough food., there are too many waiters, they don't have time to wash and clean the glasses, there aren't enough. The coffee machines were always busy, there was no water, breakfasts, I don't recommend taking them at this hotel.

Location, room and staff were perfect

Sauna and jacuzzi were opened only in the morning 7-11 AM, not so convenient. Room cleaning is done by special schedule not every day. I stayed 4 nights and my room wasn't cleaned, towels were not changed even once.

Basically booked this hotel at the last minute as my tour got cancelled very late in the day and I needed to check out of hotel etc but sequently needed somewhere to chill before my late airport flight (there is only so long you can sit in a bar or restaurant after ordering!). This place fit my needs perfectly and looked far more expensive than price I paid. As a genius member I was also upgraded for free which was nice but it was a shame I only spent a few hours here. I would return to Tallink as it has good amenities close by and whilst not in the centre of the old town it is about a 15 - 20 min walk from the old town

Nothing. Loved it here.

Room was good. Clean.

Sauna cost in evening 100 euro. 2 hours. Should be free for small sauna.

Receptionist Levs was super amazing, polite and friedly, probably best one I have encountered so far

Leo who works at the reception was very polite and helpful!

Comfortable beds, breakfast was tasty but a bit lacking of variety. (not a problem for a few days) Hotel is very big and cosy, staff was friendly. Room was quiet. Good selection of tea and coffee in the room. Good location, walking distance to the city center, took about 15-20 minutes only. A lot of shops and simple cafes around the area.

During check-in we were told our car was too heavy for the parking which is super weird as we have a very average car. Receptionist took our car document and probably checked the wrong number for weight. However, we found parking on the nearest street.

Our room was nice but a bit small, and the bathroom was good too. The breakfast offered a nice variety, but it stayed the same every day—some changes would be great. The younger staff were friendly and well-trained. The location is excellent, close to big shops, the old town, and both bus and train stations. We enjoyed the delicious Latvian food and culture. However, the people felt a bit unfriendly, perhaps due to lingering influences from the past.

The gym is a bit outdated and small, but it’s better than nothing. The sauna hours are too limited, only being open from 7 AM to 11 AM. It would be much better if it were available all day and into the evening. It felt odd to have to rush to breakfast and then straight to the sauna early in the morning. After a long day exploring the city, it would be more relaxing to use the sauna in the evening.

Tallink Hotel Riga really never disappoints. The location is spot-on — right in the center, close to everything. You can easily walk to the Old Town, the train station, shops, restaurants — it’s all nearby, which makes it super convenient whether you’re visiting for work or just exploring the city. One thing that always stands out is the reception team. The people at the front desk are on another level — really friendly, professional, and always ready to help with anything. You don’t feel like just another guest passing through — they actually make the effort to make your stay smooth and pleasant.

Personally none of the visits had anything whatsoever to do not to like.
