Grand Hotel Kempinski Riga — Photo by Kempinski

In light of the current global events, Latvia's first international luxury hotel, Grand Hotel Kempinski Riga, has launched a special offer under the title 'HEROES' to show appreciation for doctors, nurses, paramedics, technicians and others working in the medical field for their tireless efforts in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic.

Starting from 150 EUR per night in an elegant single or double room, medical staff will have the opportunity to book and stay from 20 July 2020 until 30 December 2020 and enjoy a glass of bubbles upon arrival, a lavish à la carte breakfast as well as complimentary access to the indoor swimming pool, saunas, fitness centre, relaxation area at Kempinski The Spa including a 20 EUR spa discount voucher on any treatment of their choice. Upon check-in, a valid medical ID card or certificate will be required to prove a membership in the medical industry.

"Whilst Latvia has seen relative low numbers of infections in comparison to the rest of the world, we wanted to express our deepest thanks and gratitude to the global medical community for their unwavering commitment in tackling this pandemic. They truly are heroes and deserve to experience pampering and service of the highest level. Our special offer allows these incredible professionals to take a break and revitalise before returning to their remarkable work. Combined with our 'Kempinski White Glove Services', which ensures the safety of our guests and staff, I look forward to welcoming all of them here in Riga," explains Leon Baum, General Manager of Grand Hotel Kempinski Riga.

The new campaign is available on Grand Hotel Kempinski Riga's website as of 20 July 2020, and can be booked by using the special PROMO code: HEROES.

Within the framework of this project, a photo collaboration was realised integrating the sculpture 'Doctors for the World' by the well-known Latvian sculptor Aigars Bikše, which pays tribute to the medical community and is exhibitioned in front of the Latvian Art Museum. "The unifying mission and goal of the two projects made me right away agree on the photo collaboration with Grand Hotel Kempinski Riga. Considering the current situation, it is even more necessary than usual to support each other. I will be grateful if doctors and medical workers from around the globe will take advantage of this special offer and will find time to explore beautiful Riga and its cultural heritage," added the artist Aigars Bikše.
