Mercure Riga Centre

All was clean ,staff was welcoming.

Our room was larger than expected, with modern decor and amenities. The staff were always ready to help with any requests. Breakfast was varied and delicious.

Nice hotel in good location next to nice mall, grocery store, and train station. Very good breakfast with outdoor patio option.

This hotel was AMAZING. I loved it so much and hated to leave! When I go back to Riga, I will only book in here again. The staff were super helpful and kind (especially when after 18+ hours of travel I did not realize I had to push harder on the my room door to get it to open). The hotel is conveniently located right next to the central railway station which has a large mall with a grocery store, restaurants, and a low fee money exchange. Lots of shops and restaurants are within walking distance. They also accept pets, which was critical to me since I was bringing a dog home from Latvia. The staff are very, very good about answering questions through Booking.com before you arrive too. Since I was getting a puppy in Latvia, I sent a query about nearby vet clinics just in case. They quickly responded back with three different options. Fortunately I did not have to go to any of them, but I felt much more comfortable about traveling alone with my new dog in a country I have never visited before. No matter what I asked the staff while I was there, they always had the answers and went out of their way to help. My room was modern and spotless. The toiletries were an organic local brand, The Botanist and the Chemist, and smelled fantastic! My bed was more comfortable than my own bed at home and had both firm and soft pillows. I liked the assortment of tea and coffee supplies as well as the electric kettle and glasses of various sizes. The breakfast buffet was delicious and had a wide range of choices, including gluten-free bread options. The best part? I was booked on a 6:05 am flight from Riga to Frankfurt. Since I was continuing on to the U.S. and had a dog with me, I had to be at the airport by 4 am. The hotel arranged a minivan service to pick me up at 3:30 am and because I would not be there for breakfast later that morning, they gave me a breakfast bag with water, juice, fruit, a muesli bar, and a perfectly made croissant sandwich to take with me!

Breakfast was plentiful and had variety which was great. Room was comfortable with a very nice bed and pillows. Great to have been able to make tea in the room. The location was excellent! Most of the receptionists were very friendly and keen to help and suggest places to see in the city.
