Regional players

• Three Sisters Hotel: Luxury boutique hotel in Tallinn Old Town; comparable in heritage-building 4–5 star positioning and leisure/corporate mix, but serves the Tallinn rather than Riga market.
• Hotel Telegraaf: 5-star boutique hotel in Tallinn Old Town; comparable to Avalon in Old Town heritage positioning, premium segment, and MICE capabilities, but operates in the neighboring Estonian market.

Direct peers

• Radisson Blu Latvija Conference & Spa Hotel: Large 4-star Riga hotel with extensive MICE/conference facilities, comparable to Avalon in targeting the corporate events segment but at significantly larger scale (500+ rooms).
• Wellton Centrum Hotel & Spa: 4-star Riga city-center hotel with conference facilities and spa amenities; comparable to Avalon in segment positioning (upper-midscale), location centrality, and mixed business/leisure demand base.
• Grand Palace Hotel: Luxury 5-star hotel located in Riga Old Town, directly comparable to Avalon in terms of heritage-building setting, Old Town location, and mixed leisure/business clientele. Competes for the same pool of high-end leisure and corporate guests.
