I stayed here for 3 nights for a company event. Most of our activities were within the hotel so it was the perfect venue for us.
Location - area is far from the city center, so if you're a tourist who plans to go sightseeing a lot this may not be ideal for you. The place is right next to the highway and not accessible to any public transportation. If you're a tourist your only options out of the hotel are to rent a car or get a taxi every time. The hotel can order a taxi for you but these could be costly and traveling to the city will just take a lot of your time.
If you're aiming for a relaxing and lovely time in the hotel though this is just perfect. I went there in the winter so the hotel grounds (which was huge by the way) were covered with snow, which made a dramatic postcard view. Ask for a room with view of the grounds, not of the highway which is in front of the hotel. My room had a lovely view of the frozen lake and wooden bridges and snow covered forest.
The hotel is also a good venue for business conferences - they have ample halls of different sizes to use for trainings, meetings, gala dinners, etc. The grounds could also be used for team activities like ice hockey, etc.
Rooms - rooms are big, with a very comfortable bed, a wide desk, mini bar, ample spaced cabinet, medium sized bathroom with tub. Most rooms have a great view of the grounds but they also have black out curtains if you opt to shut out the light.
Service - I was expecting bad service after I read some reviews about this hotel but I was surprised that the girls at the reception were very nice and accommodating, room service arrived within 15 minutes as promised, and they printed out my tickets for free at the business center.
Breakfast - there was a lot of choices, though it was almost the same everyday
Spa - after a long flight I had a massage at their spa, the price was very reasonable for a European hotel so I was excited to try it. I was disappointed because the lady hardly touched any of my muscles, all she did was rub oil on my skin over and over!
Pool - adequately sized with a view of the forest, and I think I also saw a jacuzzi right next to it
- Vilnius Le Meridien
