What guests report

View

Superior rooms with balconies overlooking Three Crosses Hill, Gediminas Tower, botanical park; courtyard-facing rooms quieter but limited views; some street-facing rooms have poor sightlines to parking lots

Bed & mattress

Generally praised as comfortable with good mattresses, though some found beds too soft; double bed often consists of two singles pushed together; pillows notably high quality and well-regarded

Bathroom & water

Spacious, modern bathrooms with large bathtubs, over-bath showers, dual sinks, bidets, good pressure; some complaints about high bathtubs difficult for elderly guests and weak shower heads in some rooms

Wi-Fi

Fast and reliable throughout hotel

Breakfast

Extensive buffet with good variety (eggs, meats, cheeses, pastries, salads); coffee quality inconsistent and sometimes charged extra; some guests find fresh fruit limited and recommend expansion

AC / heating

Air conditioning works well without excessive noise; however, some guests report no heating radiators in rooms (only AC) and inability to adjust ventilation/temperature settings due to government regulations

Elevator

Available

Local knowledge

Request a room facing the park or courtyard if sound sensitivity matters; street-facing rooms can be noisy from traffic and nightclubs despite closed windows.

If staying in an attic/top-floor room, check ceiling height before booking—some guests hit their heads on sloped ceilings.

Breakfast ends at 10 AM sharp and gets crowded 8–9:30 AM; go early or expect standing/no tables.
