The room is not big, but not too small, as it is sometimes in other accommodation establishments. Cozy, tidy. The staff is friendly and helpful. Really not a bad option - I liked it. Very good location - a few minutes walk to the castle.

It's strange with the water - it's hot, then cold, then hot again, cold again, although the position is the same. Or maybe there's a contrast shower here? 🤣
Breakfast - quite modest, but there's definitely something to choose from. Coffee - strong and tasty.

A bit old-fashioned, but in a very good location. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Rooms are basic but very satisfying. Breakfast could have been more varied, but overall quite good.
Would definitely recommend!

We had a superior room overlooking the park and a peek a boo view of the castle. Everything was clean, comfortable and quiet. Plenty of room for luggage. Easy, free parking. Comfortable bed and nice, hot shower. Really good breakfast with espresso machines, which luckily seems fairly common in nice European hotels. No fridge or microwave in the room. The hotel has old world charm (1939 build) with modern features and kept up very nicely, but just note it is lacking an elevator. It's a short walk to old town and the castle.

I think its the only 3 stars hotel in the town. Opened in 1939, it is renewed regularly. Room is new and clean but no air con

The hotel is in a great location near the castle and old town. The room was fine. Breakfast was good. No elevator. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Very nice hotel, very spacious rooms, and you are right by a little park behind the hotel, as well as very close by to Cesis Castle. We were considering whether to stay in Sigulda or Cesis, and we were so glad to have stayed in Cesis - much smaller, prettier and walkable town. Slightly disappointed not to have a kettle and tea in the room, but as the hotel has a restaurant, it wasn't such an issue. Breakfast spread wasn't the best, and didn't look very appetising for the most part, but all the basics were still covered. For a budget hotel, this was a very pleasant 2-night stay.

Probably the most convenient place to stay in Cēsis.
The staff is friendly, and the breakfast is good — especially when enjoyed on the terrace overlooking the park. The location is excellent: just a 5-minute walk to the main street with restaurants and also to Cēsis Castle. Free parking is a nice bonus.

The only downside is the ventilation — there's no air conditioning, and the windows only open partially, so it's hard to get fresh air into the room.

The receptionist can not call to your mobile - their phones don’t allow that. There is a parking lot but one is not allowed to park there!

Great hotel in the centre of the town within easy walking distance of everywhere you might want to visit. The rooms are great and the cafe (downstairs) is also a bonus if you don't want to go too far for a meal!

Rooms looks good. Shower temperature changes all the time which is really annoying. Internet on the top floor isn’t great. I like the design and cleanliness of the room. Btw. No elevator so we had to walk up three floors with heavy suitcases…
