Dodo Hotel - affordable, clean hotel
Upon arrival, the male receptionist who checked us in was very friendly and helpful. Our room was very clean and cosy; the shower room and toilet were clean too. Our buffet breakfast each day was good - choices: cereal, yogurt, croissants, cheese/cooked meats/toast/ assorted jams/orange juice/tea/coffees. The breakfast room staff were very friendly and helpful and would make you an omelette if you asked them. We stayed at The Dodo Hotel as the reviews were good. The nearest tram stop to the hotel is about 10/15 yards away from the hotel entrance. It was so easy to get a tram into/back from the city centre. We did walk to the city centre a few times but it takes about 20 minutes. It only costs just over 1 Euro for a single tram ticket which you can buy from any of the Harveson shops. The Maxima supermarket (about 25 yards from the hotel entrance) was great for any snacks/sweets/beer we wanted. We would stay at this hotel again and would recommend it.

comfortable
It was a short distance from the tram stop, a few stops from the bus station. A bit of a confusing check in experience, I was on the ground floor but was told the room was on the first floor. After that everything was good, comfortable room, not too hot, even though I closed the window as it was next to the road.

You get here by getting the no. 22 bus from the airport to the city centre then get tram no. 7. Hotel looks modern but the surrounding area is the opposite. Desk is 24 hrs which helps if you arrive near to midnight like I did. Staff were very friendly, I did not get any hint of any frustration from the staff when requiring any help. Close to city centre. Only complaint was that the bathroom and especially the shower were tiny.

We changed hotel after 5min stay.
After slow checking we entered the room, it was like hot Sauna, no air conditioner. So, we asked our money back, what was impossible, due low qualified receptionist, manager will arrive just next day. Only way was walk a way and take other hotel.

Dear Janne, Our hotel, as a lot of 3 or 4 stars hotels in northern region do not have air conditioner, just because we have just some few warm day a year. But by night, the temperature is always fresh and you can sleep well. You didn't trust us and you decided to leave. We could not give you back your money as you booked via hotels.com. The receptionist explained that you have to keep in touch with them, and only them can decide to cancel free of charge or not. We are sorry that you didn't understand us well and I hope next time you'll try us and we'll see, even with hot weather, it is possible to sleep well. best regards.

The check in staff were very polite and helpful. The rooms were fine and seemed clean enough. The walls did seem very thin; you could hear everything that went on in the surrounding rooms including steps, voices and toilet flush etc. The location is bad; over half an hours walk into the centre of Riga and nothing to do or see in the nearby neighbourhood. All in all good value for money and decent dor a low cost hotel.

The Dodo is a Nice comfortable up-to-date hotel, the beds are comfortable and seem to be new, the rooms are very clean quiet and comfortable. Staff are very helpful and it’s a good idea to take advantage of their budget taxi service ask at the desk. Breakfast are very good. This was my second stay at the dodo and I would certainly book again.

Worth the money
Stayed there with a group of students and another teacher. Our booking had to be changed a little by the hotel but the people in the reception were helpful in all ways. The location is rather good, about 25 minutes from old town Riga. All of us slept quite good and the breakfast was ok...not a lot to choose from but fine. The price was the best thing...more than well worth the money

Don't choose this hotel
Breakfast experience was awful with us needing to ask a security staff to get us a cup to be able to get some coffee, is never food as all plates empty with mould bread served or no bread. Staff unhelpful and ingnoring your issue. Never again at this hotel.
