Uzupio4 Old Town House

Hotel Description

You know what caught me off guard about Uzupio4 Old Town House? I was expecting another generic Old Town accommodation, but this place actually feels like staying in someone’s well-loved family home – if that family happened to have impeccable taste and knew exactly what travelers need. The moment you step inside, there’s this immediate sense of warmth that’s honestly pretty rare in Vilnius’s historic center, where a lot of places lean too heavily into the “medieval charm” thing and forget about comfort.

The location is what really sold me though – Užupio street puts you right in the sweet spot between Old Town’s main attractions and the bohemian Užupis district (yeah, the self-proclaimed republic with its own constitution). I mean, you’re literally a two-minute walk from the Angel of Užupis, and you can wander into the main Old Town square in about five minutes without dealing with the tourist crowds that cluster around Pilies street. What I loved is that you get the cobblestone atmosphere without the constant stream of tour groups marching past your window at 8 AM. The building itself has that solid, understated character you find in this part of the city – thick walls that actually keep the sound down, which is clutch because even the “quiet” streets in Old Town can get surprisingly lively on weekends.

Here’s the thing about three-star places in Vilnius – they can go either way, but this one gets the balance right. The rooms have this lived-in elegance, sort of like a boutique hotel that doesn’t need to shout about being boutique. Everything works (and I say this as someone who’s dealt with temperamental Soviet-era plumbing in other Old Town spots), the Wi-Fi is solid, and honestly, the beds are better than some four-star places I’ve stayed at in the Baltics. The staff actually knows the neighborhood too – they pointed me toward this tiny ceramics shop tucked away on Literatų street that I never would’ve found otherwise. I also appreciated that they were realistic about things like parking (spoiler: forget about it, but there’s a decent lot about a ten-minute walk away) and gave me actual useful tips about avoiding the dinner rush at nearby restaurants. You can tell they’re not just reciting a script – they’ve clearly walked these streets themselves and know what works and what doesn’t for visitors.
