Overview

The 5-star Grand Poet Hotel by Semarah, located in the heart of historic Riga, is a superb choice for those seeking a luxurious city break. Just steps from the Freedom Monument and Old Town Riga, this hotel is perfectly positioned for easy access to key business and diplomatic centres, historical sites, and the city's trendiest landmarks.

Location

Riga, the capital of Latvia, is often not considered as a top city break destination in Europe, but it is filled with hidden treasures and exciting experiences. The city is renowned for its architecture, particularly the Art Nouveau style, which is best explored by wandering through Riga's Old Town – a UNESCO World Heritage site. Along the way, visitors can marvel at Riga Cathedral, the largest medieval church in the Baltics, and enjoy panoramic views of the city skyline from the observation platform at St. Peter's Church. In addition to the historic charm of the cobbled streets, Riga's Creative Quarters offer a more contemporary side to the city. Former warehouses have been transformed into art galleries and concert halls, while the main square hosts lively events like flea markets and outdoor film screenings.
