![House of the Blackheads, prettiest and most famous, is a building situated in the old town of Riga, Latvia. The original building was erected during the first third of the 14th century for the Brotherhood of Blackheads, a guild for unmarried merchants, shipowners, and foreigners in Riga. Major works were done in the early 17th century, adding most of the Mannerist ornamentation. However, it got bombed by the Germans in 1941, and demolished by the Soviets in 1948, and got rebuilt in 1996, soon after their independence from the Soviets.

### Pullman Riga Old Town (Renovated 2025)

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast was a really good variety of choices and healthy choices were ample. They refilled it as fast as they could which really appreciated and service was warm and friendly. The rooms were so quiet and they gave me what i wanted so it was impressive with a nice view and higher floors. Room was clean and just what you expected and area was near the Xmas markets and sights of the old town which was really convenient as such. They decorated the interior with Xmas decor and was really festive. The sauna and gym area was really good and pool was quite cold though, long but its really for a singular person swimming up and down is the only downside but very good length so cant complaint. Highly recommended property. Thank you"
