Radisson Blu, Hotel Elizabete, Rīga, Latvia

What is your Club Carlson status?
Concierge

Where did you stay? (Brand, Location, Country)
Radisson Blu, Hotel Elizabete, Rīga, Latvia

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel?
Yes, but it wasn't particularly exciting

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Did you receive elite benefits?
Complimentary Room Upgrade - Yes to Business Class Room
Early Check In/Late Check Out - not required
In-Room Welcome Gift - Yes, a bottle of red wine, posh tempered chocolate and yoghurt and chocolate raisins in a brown paper bag tied up with string - I was nearly singing "My Favourite Things" from the Sound of Music...! And additionally a bottle of water each day and a liqueur chocolate filled with Rīga Black Balsam. I felt very very welcomed indeed.

How are the rooms?
Medium size room. Dark wood which is not my favourite. Wash basin spills out to bedroom. Very red headboard gave it a "boudoir" feel - maybe that was deliberate this is the only hotel where I have noticed condoms on the mini bar list

What was good and what was bad?
Good:
Power points by bed to charge phones
Nice atrium (open air to have breakfast)

Bad:
Hotel was old fashioned
Scatter cushions on bed had ribbon with menu insets (tacky)

Value for money or Gold Points? Would you return?
€175 in total for two nights. just about ok. I think I would try the Latvija next time.
