I probably would not have written anything here if the hotel wasn't vastly overrated as 4-star (on booking.com anyway). It was fine and comfortable but more like 2.5-stars, imo. My reasons: Impossible to sit on the toilet without the lid falling onto your back, Poor quality liquid soap and no shampoo or body lotion, Small and tired looking shower, Thin towels with threads hanging off them, A small stereo cd player! A old style tube tv, Only two teabags provided - no coffee or milk (description says kettle and a tea/coffee maker), the "juice" at breakfast was low quality, whereas the rest of the breakfast was pretty good.

The room was quite large and clean with big windows. The bed was comfortable and it was quiet (especially with double windows to the street). The staff were lovely and the breakfast was good. The location was excellent - right at the edge of the old town, near the bus stop for the airport bus (No. 22), and a few minutes walk from the bus and train stations.

Room was as described with a roof window, however, there was a very flimsy see-through curtain over it so it let in a lot of light from dawn which made sleeping difficult. Need to bring an eye-mask

Location excellent for exploring the city. Good breakfast.

Older hotel, lighting in the room could be brighter. Room where food for breakfast is provided is tight due to tables there as well. Can sit in 2 other rooms which are tight as well, or sit outside. Luggage storage is in one of these rooms so not a locked space.

Easy walk from train station abd then into Old Town. Room was large, AC worked well,nice to have fridge and lift to upper floors. Breakfast included, friendly, helpful staff. Enjoyed the covered outdoor space for an afternoon drink.

Very weak WiFi on all my devices. The breakfast space is quite small, which can be a bit inconvenient when many people are queueing.

Amazing location, great breakfast, spaciousnabd pretty room, comfortable bed, helpful staff.

The restaurant for breakfast is below ground and is rather cramped, dingy and airless. It is possible to take a tray outside to the terrace but it is quite a distance especially if you forget something. The hotel decor is a bit tired.

Good location on the edge of the beautiful old town, within easy walking distance from the train and bus stations. Good bathroom - spotlessly clean. Very pleasant and efficient staff. Excellent reception.

We really enjoyed our stay at Boutique Hotel Monte Kristo. The location is extremely convenient – right in the heart of the Old Town, close to everything. Breakfasts were tasty and varied, a great way to start the day. The interior has a unique and charming style, which makes the hotel feel special and memorable.

The hotel restaurant is really small and during breakfast it was difficult to move around at the restaurant. The coffee maker was slow and taking into account the small space, it was a little uncomfortable. Also the service at the terrace wasn’t at it’s best, the staff didn’t see if there were any customer and you needed to go inside to get served.

The location was great, near the old town but there was also the central market place and Origo shopping center near. Getting around was easy, since the central train station was near and a public transportation bus from the airport got you just 5 min walk away from the hotel. The staff was helpful and enabled an early check-in although it’s the high season. The ability to have breakfast at the outside terrace was a plus.

The room was a little bit small but otherwise suitable.

Very well located near the old town area. Breakfast area was a little bit crowded but the staff was accommodating.

The only thing I can think of is one day we went to have dinner at the hotel restaurant. This was around 8pm, but we got told only drinks were being served.

My favourite thing about the hotel was the location. Under 10 minutes walk to the local Riga market, coach station (which we used to and from), main sites and scenes of the old town. The room in the hotel itself had everything that you would want for a 2 night stay. A massive bed, bath, seating, storage. It was great for what we needed. The breakfast had a variety of foods available - toast, cereal, hot foods, hot drinks, juices, local cuisine. And the space where you had breakfast was rather cool - it was underground with stone walls!

Hotel is right in the old town. 8 minute walk from the bus station. 2 minute walk from the bus and tram stop. Perfect location for us as we arrived by bus and left by bus to go direct to the airport - no changes. Breakfast room is small and quaint. There is extra space both indoors and out. Hot food, breads, cereals, cheeses, hams etc all available. Room was great.

The beds were quite uncomfortable and the room had no natural light except for a sky light which had no blind. Some of the plugs didn't work and my (teenage) daughter and I didn't really feel safe in the area at night (so ate in the hotel restaurant).

Very centrally located- all the tourist sites were in easy walking distance of the hotel. It also has an excellent restaurant (with particularly good desserts).

Room was a bit dim even with all lights on

Location is great - in the old town and across the road from the central market. Buffet breakfast with enough choice for vegetarians too.

There is nowhere to sit in the room. Even though 2 chairs are provided, there is no table to be able to have a cup of tea or eat. No coffee provided. Only a desk that is cluttered with a very old stereo system that should be removed. Fridge is very noisy, so I had to unplug it, and the toilet seat was very loose, and the lid kept hitting you in the back. Lighting is very dim.

The location was very close to the station and right in the old town. Easy to walk everywhere. Able to store luggage after check out. A very good breakfast is provided. It was clean. Good sized room.
