Skyline Bar email

The Latvian money-crowd and foreign tourists alike frequent this lively cocktail lounge on the 26th floor of Reval Hotel Latvija, the main draw of which is the stunning view over Riga. You'll need to get there early to grab a window seat because competition is fierce, but if you can snag a choice table then at least you'll have plenty to look at during the long wait for table service. On Friday and Saturday nights Skyline reaches new heights when DJs arrive to add some spice to the mix. All-in-all a successful attempt to recreate the atmosphere of a hip pre-club bar in Manhattan.

Well worth visiting. The view is amazing!

This place was fantastic. A great looking crowd, stunning view of the city, and pretty reasonable prices considering how nice this place is.

Fantastic place! The new overlooking the old. Great view.
Prices are quite OK (4 Lats = 5.60 Euro for a Midnight Dream cocktail), no entrance fee, great atmosphere with efficient & friendly waitresses.

It's a fantastic place to have a drink (or many!) with friends before hitting the city nightclubs!

Hei Dennis, it is 3* hotel :)
But yes, Skyline bar is great to meet new people. It is a MUST to go there every time I visit Riga, will be back again 23.11 :)

"TOP" location on the 26th floor of the very good hotel I am staying in. View is fantastic, nice music etc. Prices are "normal" considering the bar is in a 5* hotel. (11 euro for 1 vodka /coke and 1 jack daniels). Nice waitresses, plenty of seats although even on Monday's it was full! Stop nagging about expensive prices, it is still enormously cheaper then in our own capitals London or Amsterdam...

On Riga's roof !A trendy and nice bar with an absolutely top wiew over Riga Town.Laid back music(cafe del mar etc.) Its no problem sitting there for many Hours. Cheap prises on drinks and food. We where three guys from Norway visiting the city 12-15 oktober. This was one of the highlights on this trip, especially thanks to one special waitress, she was beutiful, and made our stay suburb!!thanks, we'll be back.
regards Fred

A great place with friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Didn't think it was expensive at all as we visited many other places during our 5 day visit that had higher prices and worse waitresses and atmosphere. Really recommend the Skyline bar if you are out after something special that it can offer.

Expensive, Expensive, why do they think it is wise to Rip Off Tourists, been to Riga 6 times in the last 18 months, place is now going to scare people away with their prices and rip-offs, shame as it is a magical place
