A representative of Legendhotels,

Hotel is closing down for renovation which will be carried out by the owner of
the hotel Vastint Latvia.
After the renovation, the AC Hotel Riga will have 239 rooms. Its facilities
will include a conference center, a lounge, a restaurant and a fitness center.

of the most well-respected hotel brands in Spain. Following its success in
Europe, a joint venture was formed with Marriott International in 2011, which
launched AC Hotels by Marriott globally into France, Italy, Portugal, Denmark
and the U.S.
