Pros: The location, The staff, Great hotel

Pros: Beautiful Art Nouveau building smack in the centre of the old town with view of the cathedral towe, excellent amenities, friendly staff

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Wonderful time, friendly helpful staff and enjoyed my stay

Pros: Just about faultless and very good restaurant as well. A great place to stay

Pros: Spacious renovated beautiful room. Breakfast with various choices. We appreciate their kind reception staff, who took care of tracking our lost baggage to the airline and keeping us updated. Thank you. We’ll come back to you on our next stay in Riga too.

Cons: One evening we found many small bugs flying around in the room, for the cleaning staff kept the windows full open. But overall we enjoyed our stay very much.

Pros: Excellent stay according to all parameters.

Pros: Staff and location

Pros: Excellent, very friendly and helpful staff. Great location in the middle of the old town.

Cons: The rooms should be renovated, screws are loose in the bathroom. Cleanliness could be improved (found different hairs from earlier guests in the bathroom). Sound insulation insufficient (heard the neighbours arguing and snoring all night long)

Pros: Excellent staff and great restaurant

Pros: Very helpful staff, allocated a room on the 4th floor (with the wheel in it!) and although at the front there was no noise at all albeit bar/restaurant opposite was closed both nights. Excellent breakfast and very good location

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The location is great, really central in Old Town. The boutique style gives character - like the beams. The breakfast was good, with pots to make tea (very hot water) and fresh fruit.

Cons: The description of the room, to which we were originally assigned, bore no resemblance to the description of the room I booked on booking.com - spacious, with seating area comprising of two armchairs and breakfast table. Although booking.com does say about this hotel: “Please note that the design and layout of the rooms may vary”. The room (204) was very small with only room for one small chair. For the first time in my life, I asked for another room (as did the couple who checked in before us). I was shown three rooms on the fourth floor - none were spacious with a seating area, although they did at least have two chairs (none had a breakfast table). I selected 406. Had to ask for soap for the bathroom (only toiletries were body lotion and shower cap). Hairdryer very poor - took ages to dry hair. Creaky bed. We were kept awake on both nights by a party of ladies in the hotel who were of an age to know better (finished both their nights out by meeting in room next to ours) and kept awake on Friday night until 3am by music from a nightclub. The wi-fi rarely worked and, if it did, was extremely slow. I made our booking in January - booked for two nights, then added a third night an hour later when realised no flight to Dublin on Sat. I emailed hotel at time and asked for same room for three nights, which they replied was no problem. But when we checked in, they couldn’t give us the same room for three nights which was really annoying, having to pack up and move. For our third night (Sat), we were upgraded to a junior suite (212). Better hairdryer but wi-fi problems persisted, as did music from nightclub. No plug for sink. Can hear people walking about room above. But the most bizarre thing was the bed. Yes, the floor slopes quite markedly (as in 406) but so did the bed! And it was really lumpy. I am not sure I would have been happy if I was paying full cost for that suite.

Pros: Very friendly staff! Excellent location. Good breakfast!

Cons: Bed covers and some chairs are probably from Guttenbergs time

Pros: Breakfast was quite good once you had found where everything was kept! Staff in reception, were excellent especially Lev, who gave us the history of Riga and Anite who gave us useful local information.

Cons: The weather!!!

Pros: This old-world hotel in a fantastic location beside the cathedral in Riga's Old Town was welcoming, comfortable and great value for money. Staff were friendly and helpful, and checking and out was easy. The location is in easy walking distance of all of the major sights both in the Old Town and the wider city centre. Our room on the first floor above street level was on a corner of the building with large windows on two sides so felt light and airy, and offered views of the cathedral tower. Decor was yellow and pastels, the room was well equipped (and included a fridge and electric kettle with tea and coffee supplies) and everything worked well and was in good repair. The bathroom was spotless and the roomy shower was very good. A little quirk of our particular room was a balcony off the bathroom (!) with table and chairs which faced into an inner courtyard but with a view of the cathedral. As the weather was warm and sunny, it was a great spot for a nightcap and a morning coffee. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of delicious hot and cold choices, great coffee, breads and juices, and everything was constantly replenished. We would love to return to Riga and would happily stay in Hotel Gutenbergs again.

Cons: We prefer firm beds and the bed was a little soft for our taste but it was comfortable and fine for a few nights.

Pros: All is fine, except the smell in room. It's awful.

Pros: The hotel is situated just opposite the entrance to the Dome Cathedral. All main sightseeings are within the minutes walk. The location is very central, but at the same time quiet.

The bathroom didn't have a shower only a corner bath placed under an eve, the shower was the bath attachment to wash your hair... you had a sit, kneel to shower. Water pressure was bad too.
