Riga airport hotel

by Talkingmusic

Hi!

Does anyone know which is the closest hotel to the Riga airport? I know that the hotel is far from the centre, but I would like to stay very close, because I have a early flight in the morning.

Thanks in advance for the help

Marco

Stroll along the river Daugava

Riga is divided by the river Daugava which runs into the Gulf of Riga. It is Latvia's longest river (367 km).

November 18th

by Vija_v

November 18th is our Independence day.
If you are in Riga during this time, don't miss many different activities, like our army parade near President castle, President's speech near the Monument of Freedom and fireworks at the very evening.

Cocktail Bar...

by mandybailey about Can't remember...

Sorry I can't remember the name of this place but I know it's on Grecinieku Street and it's opposite Dickens the English pub.

It's a really groovy place, the foods tasty and served until quite late. There's lots of cocktails on the menu and it's pretty cheap.

Most of all I love the deco! It's fun and colourful!

The music is good, we were there on a Saturday night and there was a live band! There didn't appear to be a dress code.

off to jurmala...

by call_me_rhia

Trains going to Jurmala leave from the Central Train Station at Stacijas laukums - and there are about two trains per hour. The journey is about 20 minutes long on old russian electric trains with wooden benches - all for less than 1 lahti return.

The main trainstation telephone number is 583-2134 but for timetables and prices it's best to check the following website: http://www.ldz.lv/en/index.html
It has information about national nd inernational trains and... it's in English, too.
