Latvia by setting
Latvia is a country of forests, long white beaches and the Baltic's finest Art Nouveau city. Its boutique hotels follow the same story: a former central bank turned five-star hotel in Riga, a Bergs Bazaar design hotel, wooden seaside villas in Jūrmala, a German mansion beside Kuldīga's waterfall and country manors along the Gauja. Prices are low for the standard, and breakfasts and spa rooms are generous.
Riga and the coast
Riga's Old Town has compact, artsy hotels, while the Central District has grand palatial ones. Jūrmala, 25 minutes by train, has dune-backed beaches and spa villas.
Gauja and Vidzeme
Sigulda, Līgatne and Cēsis lie in the Gauja National Park, with castles, caves and country hotels.
Kurzeme and Zemgale
Kuldīga has Europe's widest waterfall and a wooden old town; Liepāja and Ventspils are Baltic port towns, and Rundāle is a palace by Rastrelli. Daugavpils in the southeast has a fortress and the Rothko art center.
When to go
June to August is warm and long; December has Riga's Christmas markets. The Gauja is best in early autumn colors.
