Just returned from a 3 night stay in Riga. Monte Kristo Hotel was in a brilliant location - literally over the road from the bus station - number 22 bus from the airport for only 70 cents! Check in at hotel was efficient, although we found the staff to be generally couteous but not overly pleasant - this tended to... More

This hotel is situated in Old City and very close to railway station and old city market - not all tourists know them and the market is a very interesting place. Hotel works on 'Bed and Breakfast' system and serve breakfast in underground restaurant. Fresh salads, pancakes, cheese and sausages - everything were perfect! Just one thing - we had... More

I stayed at Hotel Monte Kristo for a week in September 2010. Nice room, perfect size for one person! Clean, quiet and close to all the attractions on my list! Decent breakfest, and ok food from the restaurant. The staff was a bit stiff, but I didnt live there to make friends. They did what I asked them to. Overall... More

Many shops, cafes, restaurants and an airport bus stop are also nearby. We stayed in a budget economy room and have been warned that it doesn`t... More

Just across the road from the Bus Station and on the edge of the Old Town this was ideal for a few days in Riga. Breakfast was good and rooms clean and of good size, add friendly staff. For the price and location certainly a winner. More

The hotel does not look too promising from the outside as it is on a delapidated cobbled street (however you will see that a lot of the old town streets are dilapidated cobbled streets!). However the hotel creates a welcoming environment and this is eched by the staff all of whom we dealt with speak english. The hotel has 39... More
