Rixwell Elefant Hotel

Great place very convenient to the airport and to the city center.

Great as usual,perfect location after late flight. Delicious breakfast with plenty of options to choice from.

The hotel is located out of the city center but close to bus stops which make it easy to reach both citycenter and the Riga airport. Its breakfast was not the most fancy and it was just OK. Based on our stay experience at other 4-stars hotels, for a 4-stars hotel, a better breakfast with more variety was expected. Receptionists were not friendly while personals in the restaurant as well as cleaning staff were nice and friendly. Hotel has two wings and they are located almost like V-shape model. This cause rooms has a close view to each other and if your privacy matter, you should use black-out curtains, even during the day.

Fantastic new and well-kept hotel! Location next to a busy ready, but keeping the windows closed blocks all road noise. Just beware that the black-out curtains are not so black-out, which might cause issues during the early morning sun for people with light sleep. Possibility of free parking on the streets next to the hotel (upon availability).

We arrived late at night and left early in the morning. We did not have time for any local travel. The hotel staff was helpful and professional. The room was adequate for our quick stay. It is reasonably close to the airport and having a gas station (Circle K) around back made fueling the rental car easy. The on property parking seemed expensive to me so we used the less expensive option they had of the surface parking down the street. That lot is secured but requires less than a 100 yard walk on the sidewalk. A little extra lighting on the street would have made the walk safer. The lot entrance was in the darkened area off the sidewalk. The breakfast was more than adequate. There were good selections of healthy fruits and vegetables. There were also some cereal, toast and jelly. We booked the location because it was close to the airport. A shuttle service is available and I suggest you arrange for it as quickly as you can. Taxi service is also available at rates that appear to be normal with the area. The hotel is a little difficult to get to due to its location off the main area road. Taking a wrong turn will cause you to go out of your way. This is because of the many one way streets in the area and inadequate turn opportunities.

1 mile from large modern shopping mall. Beautiful and comfortable hotel! Safe neighborhood. Ten min. drive to the airport and if you ask the front desk they'll have a car waiting to take you their for only 10 euro!

This is our third time of staying at the hotel and always find the staff to be helpful and friendly. The food is of a high standard, general cleanliness is very good and rooms are very comfortable and clean. The locating is good with ample parking,close to airport and near to main roads for trevelling around the country. Only one niggle. On our first day for breakfast, there were no yogurts and the toaster was broken. All rectified the next morning but the toaster broke again in our second week.

Have stayed here on numerous occasions typically when I'm flying out the next day. 5 minutes to the airport. 2 minutes to a major shopping mall with restaurants and cafes. Secure parking options. Very good hotel. Rooms are contemporary, clean and relatively spacious. Well maintained.. Excellent breakfast buffet.
