Old Town Traku street apartment

Old Town Traku street apartment Overview

You know what caught me off guard about Old Town Traku street apartment? I expected just another basic rental in Vilnius, but this place actually sits on one of the most charming cobblestone streets in the old quarter. Trakų gatvė has this lovely medieval feel that somehow doesn’t feel touristy – locals still walk their dogs here in the mornings, and you’ll hear Lithuanian conversations drifting from windows rather than just English-speaking tourists.

The apartment itself is honestly what I’d call comfortable without being fancy. It’s got that lived-in feeling that makes you settle in quickly, though I’ll be straight with you – at 3 stars, you’re not getting luxury touches. But here’s the thing that makes it work: the location is absolutely killer for exploring. You can literally roll out of bed and be at the Gates of Dawn in five minutes, or wander over to Cathedral Square without breaking a sweat. I spent most evenings just walking the narrow streets around here, discovering tiny courtyards and those atmospheric lantern-lit passages that make Vilnius’s Old Town so special. The building itself has character – you know, creaky wooden floors and thick walls that actually keep street noise down pretty well (which matters because Lithuanian nightlife can get lively on weekends).

What I really appreciated was how the street connects you to both the touristy bits and the more authentic local scene. Head one direction and you’re among the souvenir shops and guided tours, but walk the other way and you’ll find yourself in quieter residential areas where babushkas still hang laundry from their balconies. The 7.5 rating feels about right – it’s solid and dependable rather than spectacular, but honestly, when you’re spending most of your time exploring one of Europe’s most underrated old towns, you just need a clean, comfortable base. Plus, there’s something to be said for staying in an actual apartment rather than a sterile hotel room. I mean, having a kitchen means you can grab fresh bread from the local bakeries and actually enjoy it properly with morning coffee while planning your day. Just don’t expect five-star service or amenities – this is more about experiencing Vilnius like you’re temporarily living there rather than just passing through.

Best hotels in Vilnius range from charming boutique properties in the baroque Old Town to elegant modern hotels with stunning views of the Neris River and Gediminas Tower.
