GülhantI really enjoyed my stay here. The location is absolutely perfect — right behind the House of the Blackheads, making it very easy to explore Riga’s Old Town on foot. The area felt safe and comfortable, which was especially important to me as a solo traveler. The room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was simple but sufficient. Being so close to the main sights made exploring Riga very convenient. Overall, a comfortable, clean and well-located hotel in the heart of the Old Town. 🇱🇻✨

An extraordinary building ; one of the most architecturally impressive hotels in which I can remember staying, with wonderfully helpful staff and a location that can not be bettered -- with a commendable breakfast. Five stars ! But then . . .
Beautifully configured and equipped rooms but, constraints on urban buildings being what they are, and the architects having elected a stunning central skylit air- and light-well, our room, at least, had no window. Where was one to be placed, after all ? The air-conditioning worked well, but truly fresh air was not available.
The housekeeping staff had neglected the bathroom attached to the room that we used. Hair, a cotton-tipped applicator stick, and -- simply -- dirt were on the tiles. This can happen. It was very different from the rest of the experience of the stay. But there it was.
Have a look around when you check in. Ask for a repeat cleaning of your room if you think one is necessary. Enjoy your stay.

Amazing stay! The staff is incredibly kind, welcoming, and patient—always willing to help with anything you need. Check-in and check-out were quick and easy. The rooms were spotless, we are three adults booking they let us stayed in two connected rooms. Beds are comfort enough. Perfect location just at the side of the Old City. We came from Tallin and left to Vilnius by bus, the bus station just 3 minutes walk. Everything about this hotel was excellent—I highly recommend it!

Guest UserThe location to old town was perfect! The room size was big, bed comfort was excellent, the check in/out process was easy, the staff were all very kind and helpful. I stayed 3 days & would do it again. If you are on the fence, don’t be. It’s excellent. I opted for a quiet courtyard view which was very cool. The A\C worked perfect,I was able to drop the temperature of the room to very cold, just like as I prefer. 10/10 recommend

MikeJMJonesWe were extremely happy with our stay at Hotel Justus. The hotel is located in the middle of the beautiful Riga Old Town, only a 3-minute walk to the Christmas Markets, 5-minute walk to the famous churches, and 20 minutes to the Art Nouveau District which houses some of the art galleries and museums. We stayed on the third floor in a standard double room. The room was spacious enough for a couple, had a well-functioning bathroom and also a comfortable bed and pillows. The room was well heated for the sub-zero temperatures. It has lifts. Breakfasts were delicious with both hot and cold dishes - scrambled egg pie, crispy bacon, sausages, fresh vegetables, porridge, pickled herring, wheat and rye bread, fruit and pastries. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful, providing information for the major galleries and museums and even helping me find the Leica store. Before the holiday, manager, Einars was extremely helpful finding us a private driver to drive us from Riga to Tallinn at the end of our stay. This is a very historic, boutique hotel with a cosy ambience. I believe the restaurant on the ground floor is open in peak seasons. Nearby are at ;
least 20 restaurants and cafes, and many bars. A wonderful stay, thank you.

Guest UserGreat potential, but their left hand definitely doesn't know what the right is doing!
My stay felt like a comedy of errors where I was the punchline. First, the breakfast saga: I pre-paid for my breakfast at check-in. Yet, every single morning, the restaurant staff looked at me like a breakfast bandit trying to sneak a free croissant. “Room number? Is breakfast included?” Cue me, once again, explaining my pre-paid status like I was telling a fascinating but unlikely story. I half expected them to ask for a signed affidavit from the front desk manager by day three.
Then there was the Pool Surprise™. The website features the pool, but conveniently forgets to mention it costs extra. At check-in, I asked, ”Where's the pool?” They pointed. They did not, however, point and say, ”...and that'll be $20, please.”
So, picture this: I'm there in my swim trunks, towel slung over my shoulder, ready for a dip. I get greeted not with a ”hello,” but with a request for my credit card. I had to do the walk of shame back through the lobby, damp and disappointed, to pay at the front desk. A simple heads-up would have saved us all from that awkward little parade!
The place itself is nice, but honestly, it seems like the different departments only communicate by carrier pigeon. And I'm pretty sure one of those pigeons got lost.
Pros: The room was good (if a bit tired), and the bed was comfortable.
Cons: Be prepared for a mystery fee adventure and to repeatedly prove you've paid for things you've already paid for.

Guest UserGreat location and has what you need if you're a standard backpacker...although the security is something to consider. Padlock your bags and suitcases because don't expect to fit much in the very small lockers. Also, the rooms are keypad locked but from what I've experienced, the people that you're sharing a dorm with may not all respect that the door should be closed/locked behind them when they enter and exit, so think hard about what you can afford to be stolen if if this happens. Generally though, it does feel like a safe environment but still good to be mindful.
Finally, you'll be sharing space and communal areas with a few staff/handymen throughout your stay. If you don't speak Russian, they'll likely not acknowledge you at all and they may just enter your dorm for some reason known only to them, without an explanation or forewarning. Just be mindful of your belongings and don't take things personally.

Very friendly and helpful staff, hotel room was clean and comfortable. Decent location, a bit far from all the touristy places and stuff. However, the hotel is situated right next to a tram line which is a big bonus. Only downside is that it lacked the amenities, however it was stated upon booking, so I cannot complain.

Guest UserHotel is very conveniently located, next to the mall and central station, minutes walk to the bus station, central market and old town. Check in was perfect and helpful with city map provided. Kettle, cups, sachet tea and coffee are provided, shampoo, hand soap, tissue paper, shower cap were provided in the bathroom. Would be good if they provided body lotion and hair conditioner. Sadly, the power plugs at the desk does not fit a travel adaptor and there are no usb ports. The single bed was right next to the curtain and a mirror is right in front of the bed, very weird room design. There’s a safe deposit box in the room. Do remember to bring your own slippers as no room slippers are provided.

The location is absolutely superb. The hotel is a bit old, but it has a charming atmosphere, if you can overlook the wear and tear on the floors, doors, and table, and other renovation imperfections. For the price, it's tolerable. I would have liked shampoo and possibly conditioner (especially since there are less essential items like a shower cap and comb, but the shower gel is a 3-in-1 type that doesn't lather well). The staff are pleasant and speak multiple languages. For some reason, they ask all guests to fill out a form with personal details, which I hadn't encountered before. Soundproofing is non-existent, so I recommend exploring Riga thoroughly to ensure a deep sleep and avoid being woken by corridor or street noise. The view from the window was also beautiful. Another nice touch was the mini-fridge in the room, and the room was cleaned even though we only stayed for two nights.
