Modern 50m2 Flat by Japanese Garden, 3rd Floor

Modern 50m2 Flat by Japanese Garden, 3rd Floor Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to the third floor of this Šnipiskes building, I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect from Modern 50m2 Flat by Japanese Garden. The name had me curious — and once I stepped inside, it all made sense. This four-star apartment feels surprisingly spacious for 50 square meters, with clean lines and thoughtful design that actually delivers on that “modern” promise. The Japanese garden reference becomes clear when you look out the windows — there’s this peaceful green space that creates an unexpectedly serene backdrop in what’s otherwise a pretty urban part of Vilnius.

Location & Neighborhood

Snipiskes isn’t the old town that most tourists flock to, but honestly? That’s part of its charm. You’re positioned perfectly between the business district and the historic center, which means you get the best of both worlds without the tourist crowds. The area has this authentic Vilnius vibe — locals going about their daily routines, decent cafes that aren’t overpriced, and you know what, it’s actually really well connected. I mean, you can walk to the old town in about 15 minutes, or hop on public transport if you’re feeling lazy. Couples seem to particularly love this spot, and I get why — it feels residential and intimate rather than touristy.

The Space

The apartment itself is smartly laid out — whoever designed this place really thought about how to maximize every square meter. The living area flows naturally into a compact but fully functional kitchen, and there’s enough room to actually spread out and relax. The bedroom is cozy without feeling cramped, and I was impressed by the storage solutions throughout. What really struck me was the attention to detail in the furnishing — everything feels intentional rather than just thrown together. The Japanese garden view from the main room creates this calming atmosphere that makes you forget you’re in the middle of a capital city.

Practical Comforts

This isn’t just a pretty space — it actually works for travelers. The kitchen has everything you need if you want to grab groceries from the nearby shops and cook a simple meal, which is honestly refreshing after days of restaurant food. The Wi-Fi is solid (I tested it extensively), and there are enough outlets positioned where you actually need them. The bathroom is compact but well-designed, with good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Small touches like quality linens and blackout curtains show that someone really thought about what guests would appreciate during their stay.

Why Guests Love It

With an 8.7 rating, this place clearly hits the mark for most visitors, and I can see why. It’s that sweet spot between hotel convenience and apartment authenticity — you get your own space and the freedom that comes with it, but without sacrificing comfort or cleanliness. The location consistently gets praise from recent guests, and after spending time here, I understand the appeal. You’re close enough to everything that matters in Vilnius, but far enough from the hustle to actually unwind. For couples especially, there’s something romantic about having your own little retreat with that garden view — it feels more like staying in a friend’s well-appointed apartment than a typical tourist accommodation.

Reviews of Modern 50m2 Flat by Japanese Garden, 3rd Floor

• Modern apartment – good location – Z from United Kingdom – August 24, 2025 (8/10)

  Good modern spacious apartment, clean and well maintained. Strong Wi-Fi. Washing machine.
  
  Could do with more personal touches not to feel too corporate.
  
  What could be improved: This is our second visit to the property – a few things not looked after. The kitchen was missing some utensils, salt & pepper shakers were empty, the sugar container was dirty and needed changing. There was iron but no ironing board. Shower head holder was missing. Could not access any channels on TV because no aerial connected and internet channels require subscription.

• Pobyt w tym mieszkaniu był dla nas stresujący i dlatego wyjechaliśmy przed planowanym terminem. – Dorota from Poland – August 22, 2025 (4/10)

  Mieszkanie jest nowe.
  
  What could be improved: Brak właściwej komunikacji z właścicielem, co wpłynęło na komfort pobytu. Właściciel nie przekazuje na stronie Booking istotnych informacji dotyczących warunków wynajmu lokalu, o zakazach informuje dopiero po zakwaterowaniu. Daleko od centrum miasta.

• Exceptional – Šarūnas from Lithuania – July 27, 2025 (10/10)
