We stayed at the Europa Royale Riga 4 * hotel. It is about 500-600 meters to the old town. The hotel was opened in an Art Nouveau building built in 1876, in 1996 the building was reconstructed, while the architects did their best to preserve the original appearance of the building.
We got to the Orient & Pacific 4 * hotel on the 20th of September. The swimming season was already ending, the water in the sea was already cold and it was impossible to stay in it for more than 10-15 minutes.
