HI - Vilnius - Paupio Namai Hostel in Vilnius This became our home away from home! Run by wonderful people, this clean hostel offers comfortable rooms in a quiet neighborhood on the edge of Old Town.
Hostelgate in Vilnius This is the best hostel in Vilnius.....full stop....ever!
HI - Klaipeda Hostel in Klaipeda This is a great hostel, located next to the bus station, which is very handy if you happen to wander in late at night. It's a five-minute walk to the city center, which is small and okay. What makes Klaipeda a must-see is the famous Curonian Spit, a gorgeous peninsula ideal for a daytrip, and the nearby abandoned underground Soviet missile base. The hostel organizes cheap and qualitative trips to this base, which is awesome. That said, the hostel is very small. Although the walls are pretty thick, I can imagine that when it's a full house, things might get a bit noisy. But don't let that put you off, this is a great place and Jurga, the owner, rocks!
HI - Vilnius - Filaretai Hostel in Vilnius This hostel is nice. It is located about 15 minutes walk from city center (Vilnius anyway is not such a big city). It's quite small, and so far it has only one floor (there was some "work in progress" upstairs). The kitchen is a bit small, but quite well equipped. Bathrooms are clean. There is a big common area, with sofa and TV were you can just hang out and make friends. There is also a PC with internet access, but when the hostel is full, you'll have to wait to use it!!
VJTC Vilnius - Vilnius Youth Centres in Vilnius This hostel is very near to the Old Town (5 minutes by foot). The area is quite safe (it is in the Uzupis district), and we had no problem! There is only one problem: hot water is on between 06:00-09:00 in the morning and 20:00-24:00 [8 p.m. to 12 midnight] in the evening. There is no curfew!
HI - Vilnius - Old Town Hostel in Vilnius This hostel is just another average sort of place. It's a short walk into the heart of the Old Town, and close to the bus station, so that's cool. The kitchen is decent, and the free Internet was a welcome distraction. You'd be better off trying to hook up an apartment in the Old Town, or off Gedemino PR. If you're traveling as a pair you can save yourself some money and sleep a lot better! As for nightlife--Gravity is good on Friday night, Lithuania Wild Club on Tuesday, and Broadway any time of the week. Stay away from the damn reds at the Olympic Casino--crooks. Casino Tornado is also full of criminals, so don't go there. That's it--have fun.
Litinterp Guesthouse in Kaunas They bring you there by car, which is quite funny. The rooms are excellent and there's a shared kitchen. It feels really cozy, like you're in someone's home. It's near to the old town. The beds are great. It's a place to finally relax after a long journey. They have very friendly staff as well.
Litinterp Guesthouse in Klaipeda We spent three nights at the Litinterp Guest House Klaipeda in August 2003. We found the staff to be very helpful and friendly. The room was quite nice and located on a quiet street, but not far from the sites. I would not hesitate to stay at the guest house again.
Hotel Ruta in Klaipeda We had a really good time at Hotel "Ruta" and we will come back. We love all of the staff and the hotel's administration job was perfect.
Namu Viesbutis Hotel in Kaunas Very hospitable hosts, excellent rooms. Nice, quiet area but within easy access to town, shopping centers, museums. Would definitely recommend hotel. Will be back next year, but in the summer as we found Kaunas to be too cold in November!
Bernardinu St. Guest House in Vilnius Very, very clean, and a great location.
JNN Hostel in Vilnius A very clean, quiet, comfortable and respectable place. I stayed in a carpeted, 2-bunk room with my brother, it resembled a college dorm with its own WC. TV in the breakfast room, I think (but am not positive) it has a swimming pool and weight room, too.
