Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Sīmanis hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (3rd or 4th) to minimize potential noise from the street. The hotel's address on Liepājas iela suggests it's a relatively busy street with passing traffic.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms nearest the lift, as the hotel only has a single lift and it might get busy, especially during peak hours.
Best views
Unfortunately, the hotel's address on a side street in Kuldīga means that the views from the rooms will likely be of surrounding buildings or the street.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 are likely the quietest, as they're not adjacent to the lift and are situated closer to the interior of the building.
🔊 Noise notes
Guests may hear some noise from the street, especially during rush hour or when large groups are passing by. However, the hotel's 3-star rating suggests it's a relatively quiet and well-maintained property.
Insider tips
If you have a car, consider parking in the public lot nearby, as on-street parking might be limited or restricted. If you're checking in during peak hours, try to arrive early to avoid long queues, and consider using the hotel's online check-in service to speed up the process.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type

Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATMs for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at Rīga Airport and tourist offices near Pilsētas laukums, which charge high fees.
Major credit and debit cards are widely accepted in supermarkets, hotels, and most restaurants; contactless is common. Carry cash for smaller cafés, market stalls, and public WC.
Rounding up the bill or leaving 5-10% in restaurants is appreciated but not required; taxi drivers and hotel staff don't expect tips, though rounding up is fine.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →Filter coffee at a neighbourhood café or bakery: around €2.
Soup of the day with bread at a casual eatery: €5-7.
A main course like pelēkie zirņi (grey peas) or a pork dish at a simple pub: €8-12.
The old town has a few stalls selling pelēkie zirņi with speck (grey peas with bacon) and other Latvian snacks; the small market near the brick bridge has local pies and pastries.
Supernetto and Rimi are the main budget supermarket chains in Kuldīga.
Check the small second-hand shops along Baznīcas iela for cheap finds; new high-street clothing is limited—Rīga is better for variety.
Walking is the cheapest way around LV-3301 as the area is compact. From Rīga Airport, take bus 22 to Rīga central bus station (€1.15), then a direct bus to Kuldīga (approx €9).
Eat lunch out instead of dinner for lower prices; buy snacks and water at a supermarket rather than cafés; visit late spring or early autumn for cheaper accommodation and fewer crowds.
