Brand New Luma Apartments by Reside Baltic

Brand New Luma Apartments by Reside Baltic Overview

I’ll be honest – when I first heard the name Brand New Luma Apartments by Reside Baltic, I thought it sounded a bit corporate for something in Vilnius Old Town. But you know what? Sometimes you shouldn’t judge a place by its booking.com listing. These apartments on Sodu street are actually tucked into one of those quiet cobblestone lanes where you can still hear your footsteps echo in the morning, which is pretty rare when you’re literally a three-minute walk from Cathedral Square.

The thing about staying here is that you’re getting the apartment experience (meaning you’ve got proper space to spread out and a kitchen if you want to grab some dark rye bread from the market) but with that hotel-style reliability. I mean, someone actually answers when you call the front desk, which – trust me – isn’t always the case with Vilnius rentals. The building itself has this interesting mix going on where they’ve kept some of the original stonework but everything inside feels genuinely new, not just “we threw some IKEA furniture in and called it renovated” new. The apartments are honestly more spacious than I expected, especially considering you’re in the heart of the old city where most places feel like they were designed for people who were apparently much smaller in medieval times.

Location-wise, you’re on the perfect street for exploring without being right in the tourist chaos. Sodu runs parallel to some of the busier old town streets, so you can duck into Pilies street when you want that full tourist experience, or just wander toward Uzupis when you need something more laid-back. The Cathedral and Gediminas Tower are close enough that you’ll walk past them constantly (which never gets old, actually), but you’re also positioned well for those early morning walks along the Neris River before the city wakes up. Parking can be tricky – this is old town, after all – but they’ll sort you out with options nearby. The 7.7 rating makes sense to me; it’s solid without being flashy, comfortable without trying too hard. Perfect for people who want to experience Vilnius like they actually live here for a few days, rather than just passing through.

Vilnius’s hotels showcase the perfect blend of Lithuanian tradition and modern comfort, with many featuring cultural tour services and authentic Baltic hospitality.

Reviews of Brand New Luma Apartments by Reside Baltic

• Cozy and central – Laila from Latvia – May 25, 2025 (8/10)

  Nice little loft apartment, cozy and warm, perfect for me as a solo female traveler. Great location right next to the train station and close to the center. Everything was newly furnished.
  
  What could be improved: Shower leaked but I think they are planning to fix it

• Good – Huisken from Netherlands – June 2, 2025 (7/10)

  Location. Clarity of communication. Check-in. Clean.
  
  What could be improved: Airco broken in suite 31. Window locked, no fresh air.

• Clean but lacked personal amenities – Kristina from United States – July 30, 2025 (6/10)

  The property was very clean, newly renovated and in a good location on the edge of the old town: about a 15-minute walk. The check-in process was clear and easy. The bed was comfortable with white sheets and comfortable pillows.
  
  What could be improved: The property lacked the little touches that make a space comfortable. No bedside tables or lamps, no shower gel, shampoo in the bathroom or washing liquid in the small kitchen, no hooks for towels or even a hand towel. You need to bring everything with you. The bathroom was also extremely small. Anyone with long legs wouldn’t be able to sit on the toilet as their knees would hit the wall. The towels were thin and a bit ragged and you only get one per person. No extra towel or you need to wash your hair. While it was very clean and new, it wasn’t the most comfortable. A few small amenities would make a huge difference. Also, if you have any physical challenges, there’s no elevator. We had to take our bags up 3 flights of stairs.

• Exceptional – Tomasz from Poland – May 5, 2025 (10/10)

  Modern apartment in an old tenement house. Clean and pleasant. Very close to the Old Town. Private parking. Excellent contact with staff. Clear instructions for check-in and key collection.

• Exceptional – Angie from Germany – May 3, 2025 (10/10)

  Very comfortable apartment, easily accessible. Friendly hosts, so would recommend

• Fair – Sose from Lithuania – August 17, 2025 (5/10)

  The location
  
  What could be improved: The shower was flooding, when we called the host she didn’t seem to care.
  
  My inbox was spammed by messages about how clean we need to leave everything and there was a feeling that even before us the only cleaning was done by guests and not the hosts

• Great location, easy check-in but wouldnt stay for many days. – Anita from Finland – July 15, 2025 (5/10)

  It was clean and Kitchen was well equipped.
  
  What could be improved: Would have been nice to see outside but there were only two skylights. The shower floded easily in the bathroom and needed to use towels to dry the floor every time after shower.

• Good – Mehdi from France – June 1, 2025 (7/10)

  , le logement est très bien et l'emplacement également
  
  What could be improved: La cabine de douche qui n'evacuait pas l'eau correctement

• Wonderful – John from Sweden – May 6, 2025 (9/10)

  Mycket bra läge med närhet till både station och gamla stan. Rummet är helt nyrenoverat och funktionellt. Personalen tillmötesgående och trevliga (dock ingen personal på plats). Många faciliteter för självhushåll (utrustat kök, strykjärn, etc.). Rummet var högst upp och hade sålunda inga fönster ut, men två fönster uppåt som släppte in gott om ljus. Rummet är inte särskilt stort, men för ett par med en resväska och ryggsäckar räcker det gott. Ett mycket bra alternativ för den som inte vill slösa pengar på ett dyrt boende man ändå inte vistas i mer än under natten.

• Labs numuriņš, tuvu transportam, bet tur nav gaisa un dažreiz smaržo pēc kanalizācijas – Ieva from Latvia – July 22, 2025 (7/10)

  Viesnīca atrodas tuvu visa veida transportam, tas ir kārtīgs un tur ir ļoti laba virtuves zona. Labi strādāja kondicionieri un televizors
  
  What could be improved: Numuriņa nebija gaisa un bija ļoti karsti, jo bija aizlīmēti logi. Ienākot numuriņa, smird pēc kanalizācijas. Lietojot izlietni un dušu, smaka pazūd. Numuriņš nebija labi iztīrīta pirms mums.
