Grand Poet Hotel by Semarah
Latvia
Grand Poet Hotel by Semarah is a hotel in central Riga, Latvia, at Raiņa Boulevard 5/6. It opened in 2018 as Semarah Hotels’ design-led property and sits in the historic heart of the city, close to the Freedom Monument, the Old Town and the Latvian National Opera, with views towards Bastejkalns. Its setting is presented as convenient for both business and leisure stays, with the hotel describing itself as a contemporary design address in the capital. The hotel has 168 rooms, including 20 more luxurious accommodation types, and several room categories are listed, such as Standard, Superior, De Luxe, Junior Suite and Park Suite. The rooms include either one or two beds depending on category, and the hotel states that breakfast is included. Some categories feature baths, while others offer a shower or bath, and all are described as having air conditioning and access to the wellness centre and fitness suite. Dining is centred on an in-house restaurant, with the hotel offering breakfast and promoting itself as a gastronomic destination. Official material also refers to lunch and dinner service, and a breakfast page describes a gourmet breakfast with sparkling drink. The hotel’s spa and wellness offer includes dedicated spa treatment spaces and a wellness centre, supporting a stay that combines accommodation with relaxation and food service under one roof. Grand Poet also provides facilities for meetings, conferences and weddings, with a banqueting hall and five multifunctional rooms that can be adapted to different needs. Contact information for reception, reservations, spa, restaurant and business events is listed on the official site, reinforcing that the property functions as a full-service city hotel rather than a simple overnight stop. Its overall character is that of a polished urban base with design emphasis, spa facilities and event space in a central Riga location.
