I have stayed at Kempinski before and generally like this hotel chain, but the one in Riga initially looked a bit outdated for my taste. Still, I decided to give it a chance.
I visited Riga during the Christmas market season, and the hotel was beautifully decorated. The check-in and check-out process was smooth, and the staff were friendly and helpful.
The location is excellent, right in the city center, within walking distance of everything. The room was spacious, comfortable, and very clean. I also enjoyed the breakfast, which was good overall; however, this was the only downside of my stay. Ordering from the à la carte menu took quite a long time, with waiting times of around 20–30 minutes, and I’m not sure whether this was due to staffing or other issues.
Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I would definitely recommend this hotel.
