FROM CENTRAL BUS STATION:
Leave the Bus Station and walk left under the railway bridge, walk down steps in to the underpass. Take the left exit halfway through the tunnel. Walk to the right and cross the tram tracks.

FROM THE AIRPORT (05:30-22:30):
Get Bus 22. The bus stop is located on the opposite side of Airport car park; it departs every 20 minutes and costs just 0.70 local cents. Check our website for more details on how to find our hostel from the bus stop in the city centre. We are only 300m away!
TAXI FROM AIRPORT:
Take the Red Taxi Service or AirBaltic Taxis, should cost around 9LVL to hostel. Tell the driver corner of Audeju Iela and Kaleju Iela. Journey takes about 20mins depending on traffic. Walk down Kaleju Iela until number 50 and press the buzzer!
FROM CENTRAL TRAIN STATION:
The most difficult part is finding the correct exit, first find the Riga clock tower then you know you exited on the correct side. Walk left down Janvara Street and you will find an underpass. Take the left stairs at the end of the underpass. Walk along the footpath, after about 100m you will see Metropole Hotel, walk past the left side. Walk past the next street Valnu Iela and in front will be a small park. Walk right across the park and towards Monte Kristo Hotel and then you are on Kaleju Iela.
