10/10 Exceptional

Comfortable relaxed environment. Breakfast can get a little busy early doors but if you have time to sleep in then its more than comfortable. Locally good shopping at the shopping center, great foodhall, various shopping opportunities. Locally some good bars within walking distance or a simple Bolt taxi into Riga itself can be promising.

Excellent option not too far from the airport.

Excellent option not too far from the airport and on the right side of town to avoid traffic in the morning. The area however doesn’t have too much to offer and it's a bit of a way from the centre. I experienced the bed as too hard but it might just have been me. The restaurant was excellent as was the bar, useful given few other options in the immediate vicinity. There’s a spa with massage but you need to book ahead so I didn’t experience it. Big room, comfortable and quiet.

Nice hotel for a mini vacation

I had a nice stay at Rixwell Elefant. Before arrival I had emailed the hotel inquiring about a specific room which I was happy to get. Any question I had they could help with. The bed was unfortunately a bit broken, so I didn't sleep that well. Room 204.

6/10 Good

Trying to find this hotel at night was impossible there is no clear signage so ended up driving past three times. The reception staff were rude and didn’t feel welcomed at all. The breakfast was ok and to be fair the staff members at breakfast and check out were pleasant. Also hate when you don’t have a iron in the room!
