Hotel Gutenbergs
Doma Laukums 1, Rīga, LV-1050, Latvia – Excellent location - show map
Excellent location - all main attractions in very short walking distance. Clean and comfortable rooms in old fashioned style (opening with the proper key, not card) fitting with the hotel's name and location in old townhouse. Nice touch is the availability of the computer in the lobby area to do research, print boarding cards etc. Good buffet breakfast with variety of of choices including Latvian dishes. I didn't use the restaurant as it was very busy and fully booked in the evening, which must be a good sign :) Special mention to Lev at reception, who was beyond polite, friendly and helpful with recommendations of local food/restaurants, transport links and generally a very kind, cheerful person. Being able to speak so many languages, he was making every guest feel very welcomed.
