6/10 (1 review)
Hotellet hade ett bra läge och rummet var rent och alla detaljer före incheckningen var mycket väl beskrivna i e-postmeddelandet. Å andra sidan skulle vi föredra att personalen var bättre på engelska och att frukosten inkluderade veganska alternativ och frukt.

During the Soviet occupation the church had not use, and in 1973 it became the home of Riga Polytechnic Institute student club👨‍👨‍👧‍👧. In 1991, after latvian independence, and English-speaking congregation🛐 was again formed. 🏛️Riga City Council Tower (Latvian: Rīgas Dome).
