“The best location in Vilnius!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 July 2011

My wife and I spent our second stay in Vinius in Grybas House. This small and cosy hotel in the center of the Old Town is the perfect base for a weekend in Vilnius. There are so many cool pubs, bars and restaurants within a very short walking distance. “In vino” is about 30 seconds away, and that`s one of the most charming places we have ever been to.
We stayed there for four nights, and loved it. In our room we had a lot of space, and it was nicely decorated and everything worked as it should. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
The only negative thing I have to say about the hotel, is that the breakfast is a bit boring and limited, but not boring enough to keep us from coming back. We guaranteed will.

“Not good for business trip”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2011

Very good location, nice rooms but had some problems with laundry, it took 3 days to be done. Some of the hotel employees were very nice but there was one guy a bit umpolite saying things like " its not my job and I cant do anything". However, for tourism can be a nice place to go because of the good price.

“Nice, quiet hotel in perfect location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2011

I'm not sure I can add much to what's already been said. It's a small hotel/guest house where I stayed three nights. The staff was always courteous and spoke English. They assigned the top floor room to me although I had requested a room on a lower floor when I made the booking. But they happily accommodated me. Maybe it was because I arrived soaked walking from the bus station or just looked exhausted.

The room was huge with a somewhat traditional look. It had a large bed, big comfortable leather chair and writing desk. It was really the size of a suite, but without a wall dividing the spaces. The bathroom wasn't large, but very clean and perfectly adequate.

Yes, the steps are steep and I was happy to be on the first floor up from the reception area. I never heard anyone in the other rooms. In fact, I didn't see other guests even at breakfast. The selection at breakfast wasn't the big buffet you find at larger hotels, but certainly adequate, fresh and good. But unlike the larger buffets, each morning I was asked what kind of eggs I wanted... an omelet or whatever. They would even turn on the English speaking TV for me.

Being set back from the street made it not only quiet, but feel less commercial, more like someone's home. Don't expect a large chain hotel, it's not. But that's a plus. I'm basing my evaluation on this level of hotel, not comparing it with a higher end one.

You walk through an archway at the street and then through a large courtyard My room had large opening windows all across one wall that faced the landscaped courtyard. What a treat compared with the dark almost windowless rooms you find elsewhere.

When I wondered about the weather prediction for the next city on my itinerary, they let me use the computer at the front desk. How often does that happen? It's a nice, quiet hotel in the perfect location for seeing the old town sights. It's also fairly easy to walk to the bus and train station, but a little uncomfortable in the rain.

I contacted Grybas Hotel directly to book and they were very efficient and helpful in their response. The hotel is brilliantly situated in the Old Town, 1 minute from the Gates of dawn, 2 minutes from the Rathus, Contemporary Art museum etc, and 10 minutes walk from the Cathedral.

“Wonderful place to stay - central, clean, spacious”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2009

I went to Lithuania for a wedding and loved staying in the Grybas House right in the center of the old town. My room was indeed a suite, with a living room, entryway, bath, and huge bedroom. The staff were very friendly, English speaking, and the owner was like a kindly uncle. Outside the Grybas compound, one could stroll to the theatre and cafes, while watches brown-robed monks and saintly sisters walking the streets between the neighboring church and many of the Catholic Churches just a few minutes walk away. Shopping was about a two to five minute walk away depending on what you were looking for. Clean ancient cobble stone paved this ancient area. One could not find a better, more homey establishment in central Vilnius.
