In a prime location in the Centre district of Rīga, Hotel Saida - quality hostel is set less than 1 km from Riga Nativity of Christ Cathedral, a 12-minute walk from Latvian National Museum of Art and 1.4 km from Bastejkalna Parks. The property is around 1.7 km from Riga Town Hall Square, 3 km from Daugava Stadium and 1.9 km from Riga Dome Cathedral. The property is 1.1 km from Vermanes Garden, and within 600 metres of the city centre. The room was clean and quiet. The code allowed entry at any time with no issues. The host offered a cleanup and a towel change for my rather lengthy stay, even though the advertisement stated that there would be no cleanup during the stay.

Cinnamon Sally Backpackers Hostel is located close to the historic centre of Riga. It is less than a 10-minute walk from the Old Town. One of my best experiences in hostel. Probably also the best choice for travelers passing the Baltic states. Clean room and bed, good location, great common space, friendly and enthusiastic staff, free snacks and breakfast included (though I'm not sure there's a kitchen). I was lucky enough to join the events and the following Riga folklore dance and built friendship with many travelers. The folklore dancing restaurant was authentic and fun. After that we when to a karaoke bar drinking and dancing till midnight. If i back to Riga one day, this hostel will be my first choice for sure. Cheers

Conveniently set in the Centre district of Rīga, Lighthouse Hostel & Rooms is located 600 metres from Latvian National Opera, 1 km from House of Blackheads and 700 metres from Riga Nativity of Christ Cathedral. Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a shared lounge, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The property is less than 1 km from the city centre and a 4-minute walk from Vermanes Garden. Very nice place with helpful staff and very close to everything you need (big supermarket, restaurants, old town and bus/railway station). An extra positive point for the free coffee and fruits, for budget travellers I can highly recommend this place, you can reach literally everything on foot and cook for yourself in the well-equipped common kitchen or find restaurant recommendations on the wall.

Located in the Centre district in Rīga, 300 metres from Latvian National Opera, Orange Cat Rooms boasts free WiFi.

All rooms feature a seating area to relax in after a busy day. Every room is equipped with a shared bathroom. Clean. Calm down. Good roommates. Extra clean shower. The price is high. The room is cold. Many complain that there is no elevator. But it wasn't even written that he was there. The room is suitable for tidy travelers but not for capricious princesses. The room is tidy, there are not many things. I liked it.
