Hotel Conference Facilities in Riga, Latvia
Compiled by Anja Coppieters, November 2009.
Over the past decade, largely due to Latvia's favourable geographic location, modern facilities and multi-lingual, forward-thinking people, Riga has become a nexus of conferences bridging the business interests between East and West. Seasoned organizers acknowledge that creating a successful event is both an art and a science. Naturally, a creative vision is conducive to the conception of an inspired, memorable event, but without the solid foundations of sound organization and reliable partners to realize that vision, the most intricate aspirations are but castles in the sky - unattainable. Tangible actions and experienced partners are vital catalysts to spark the transcendence of a beautiful vision from the realm of dreams into reality. In this feature, we have compiled the most prestigious and capable hotel venues in Riga, most of which, have many years of experience in organizing impeccably professional conferences, workshops and banquets. Choosing these venues you will be in good hands.
Find out more about what's planned at these and other venues under the Event Calendar and visit our accommodation section of Latvia for contact details. Wishing you a sensational, profitable endeavour.

I would agree with those who say that "Riga is still the best kept secret", indeed, it has a lot of possibilities to surprise and inspire the city guests. Rich cultural life, architecture, high level of service standards, modern hotels and well educated personnel make Riga a perfect place for vacation or conference. Riga inspires people, but those who take a longer trip may enjoy the beautiful nature of Latvia and feel the real spirit of Latvians. Hotels Konventa Sēta and Hotel de Rome are both hotels with a well-known brand name and are associated with quality, exceptional guest service, comfort and safety. Hotel de Rome celebrates its 18th birthday this year and still is one of the favourite hotels in Riga, especially for business travellers who appreciate personal approach, comfort and safety. The hotel provides 88 elegant guest rooms and 2 well-equipped meeting rooms with the total capacity of 105 delegates, and gourmet dining in the famous restaurant Otto Schwarz which has a panoramic view to the Monument of Freedom. Hotel Konventa Sēta is a unique historical complex consisting of seven houses and creating an unforgettable experience. Tourists call it "City in a city", as it has really unique atmosphere — romantic and modern, a perfect mix. Hotel Konventa Sēta offers 144 comfortable and cosy guest rooms, 5 elegant and well- equipped meeting rooms with the total capacity of 240 delegates, banquet hall "Pie Mūra" (At the Stone Wall), bar and restaurant. Hotel Konventa Seta and Hotel de Rome have recently joined Kolonna Hotels Group which now consists of 7 hotels — four hotels in Riga and 3 hotels in regions. Feel the spirit of Latvia and get inspired by Riga! |
