Barbacan Apartments in the Old Town

Barbacan Apartments in the Old Town Overview

You know what really struck me about Barbacan Apartments in the Old Town? It’s one of those places that actually lives up to its location without trying too hard to impress you with fancy lobby nonsense. I mean, when you’re staying right in the heart of the Old Town, the building itself becomes part of the experience – and these apartments get that completely.

The moment you step inside, there’s this immediate sense that you’re in something authentic. The stone walls aren’t just decorative touches; they’re the real deal, probably older than most countries. But here’s the thing – they’ve managed to blend all that historical character with genuinely comfortable modern living. The apartments feel lived-in rather than sterile, if that makes sense. You’ve got proper kitchens (not those sad hotel kitchenettes with two burners), spacious rooms that don’t make you feel like you’re playing Tetris with your luggage, and windows that actually open to let in those Old Town sounds – church bells, conversations drifting up from cobblestone streets, the occasional horse-drawn carriage clattering by.

What I really appreciate is how they’ve handled the whole “historic building” challenge. Sure, you might hear your upstairs neighbor’s footsteps sometimes (those old floors have character, shall we say), but honestly, that just adds to the authenticity. The staff clearly knows the area inside and out – they’ll point you toward the little bakery that opens at 6 AM when the tourist crowds are still sleeping, or mention which entrance to the castle has the shortest lines. And speaking of crowds, the location means you can actually retreat back to your apartment when the Old Town gets overwhelming during peak season, then venture out again once the tour groups have moved on. The 9.6 rating isn’t some fluke either – you can feel it in the details. Fresh linens that don’t smell like industrial detergent, decent water pressure (miracle in a historic building), and WiFi that actually works when you need to upload all those photos. It’s not trying to be a luxury resort, and that’s exactly why it works so well. You’re here for the Old Town experience, and these apartments give you a genuine home base to explore from, rather than some sanitized hotel bubble that could be anywhere in the world.

Vilnius’s apartments offer spacious accommodations with historic charm, perfect for families wanting to experience daily life in this culturally rich Lithuanian capital.

• Fredrikhansson from Sweden (10/10)

  This apartment is a gem! The location can not be better, and if you arrive by car, the private garage is a huge advantage. The sound isolation is great, and the apartment feels quiet. It is also very nice furnished and equipped and bright with a nice view. The host was very sympathetic and service minded, and we felt very welcomed. The surroundings are quiet, yet all you need in terms of resturants, bars, shops and attractions are only minutes away by foot.

• Shayna from United States (10/10)

• Justas from Netherlands (10/10)

  The apartment is very clean and there was everything needed for a comfortable rest. Very comfortable king size bed in a secluded bedroom. Breathtaking view from the windows. Great location – just a few minutes walk to touristic attractions, streets full of bars and restaurants. The host was very kind and helpful, he welcomed us and saw us off. Although the apartment is in the heart of the Old Town, the streets surrounding it were quiet and there was no noise at all. The free underground parking with a lift up to the apartments was a huge plus. Very good internet connection. Excellent value for money. We will definitely come back here again, highly recommend

• Cechowska from Poland (10/10)

  Apartament ładny, czysty, z ciekawym widokiem na okolice Wilna. Łóżka wygodne, z czystą, wyprasowana pościelą. Wszyskie potrzebne rzeczy ja żelazko, suszarka, wyposazenie kuchni, a takze pralka i zmywarka jest w apartamencie. Gospodarz bardzo miły, pomocny. Apartament ma parking podziemny więc nie trzeba martwić się o miejsce postojowe na zewnątrz. Nie trzeba też z niego wyjeżdzać, bo z apartamentu jest wszędzie blisko do wielu ważnych miejsc, zabytków i atrakcji Wilna. W pobliżu znajdują się bary, restauracje. Spędziliśmy tam miło czas rodzinnie w 4 osoby. Bylo nam bardzo wygodnie .Jeśli jeszcze zawitam w Wilnie, to napewno skorzystamy z usług właściciela tego apartamentu.
