Viktorija Hotel

A good budget-friendly option in an original Art Nouveau building. The rooms and amenities are not top-notch anymore, but everything is functional and the staff was utmost friendly and helpful. A refrigerator in the room and an electric kettle on loan from the reception were an additional advantage. We didn't miss breakfast as there are very nice coffee shops in the Stabu iela nearby.

Very good, thank you so much 😊

Olor a cigarrillo y encierro. Duchas que tiraba agua para afuera

As others have mentioned…you get what you pay for. We stayed for four days and it did the job. The hotel was clean. Bed linen clean and comfortable. Staff helpful. The location is a flat 15min walk to old town and there are bars and restaurants within a few minutes. I have my own rating system, this is a three glasses of wine hotel and my that I mean after three glasses it’s totally fine :)

The beds' mattresses supports were collapsing if you sat in corner of the bed. The mattresses themselves are terribly uncomfortable. The bathroom has mold all over the ceiling. The doors were closing only when you locked with the key.

Room was very clean, almost spotless. Staff was also nice.

Good stay for a budget hotel. Clean and tidy. Staff helpful.

Room clean,staff very helpful

Yes there were shops nearby the accessibility was good but the room was pretty old condition and flush was not working. The heater was very weak and didn't provide heating

The property is crying for maintenance...it is not only outdated, but also heavy out used.

Very nice staff and nice hotel overall

Great stay and affordable

I'm on an '8 country tour' (yes, say it to the Gilligan's Island theme). When asked what I was most looking forward to, I said Latvia and Lithuania as they were both former Soviet bloc nations. I came from a rather swanky hotel to Viktorija Hotel. Swanky was 4 star, Viktorija 3. I guess there's a scale. I've seen other reviews, and some people were pretty hard on the place. When I arrived, I did not have a good exchange with the brunette at the front. I believe Latvian culture is quite different though, plus, there was a communication error on my part, so I'll take the brunt of that. I obtained my physical key on a wooden knob as big as a child's fist and went to my room. The hallway IS oddly dark. The room is roomy! The furniture, VERY basic, like American dorm room style. The bathroom, a butterscotchy one cm tile all around. Seemed very Soviet era. The TV, snowy. I had to laugh after swanky just because of the contrast of the two worlds. But in reality, this is what I wanted. Viktorija is just keeping it Riga real. Room was clean, bed was comfortable, shower was hot, location - plenty of walkability. TV and refrigerator unplugged. Why? they don't like vampire devices. Me neither! (Google it) They actually won my heart with this. Then I thought the dark hallway was for energy conservation. (Won my heart part ll). Would this be my choice for my 7 stays, perhaps not. For this one, I had good time. I will defend Viktorija Hotel in this moment. Now you know what to expect.

Good

Very friendly staff. Very clean! The rooms need renovation, especially bathrooms. If your room looking to the street, it is very noisy. Location is good, close to main train station 20 min walk.

First thing I noticed when I got in the room was the state of the bed. It was the noisiest bed I have ever sat or lay on. It was also lob sided. I felt like I might fall off if I wasn't careful. The next thing was the shower room. So small that you could only stand at the side of the sink. The shower doors didn't close or and there was an awful smell which seemed to be present in the morning. No food on offer at all. No facility to make a drink in the room. Very poor. I would not be using it if I were to go back. Transport links in the area are good however. Busses run frequently.

good beds but bathroom left much to be desired.

Good value for money. Convenient for city centre. Walking distance

good price, help from staff, pleasant stay.

It was lovely. So easy accessable to it.
