Viešbutis Banga

The hotel is perfectly located: by the river and park and still close to the central part of the town. The room I stayed was modest but comfortable (except for the pillow, which was exceptionally thin) and clean, the view from the room was stunning, especially at the sunset. Breakfast was one of the best I ever had in Lithuanian hotel.

Bad points were several. Drain in the shower was bad, it was just enough for short shower before overflowing. There is no AC in the rooms and it was very hot. Thankfully, I stayed on the upper floor, so I dared to open the window at night and it was apparently too high for mosquitoes. And another small thing – breakfast area, especially the buffet, which is separated, are very small, so people have to wait outside if there were more than two persons selecting their food or drinks.

The room had an amazing view, the staff were very kind and they all spoke English very well, the breakfast was okay.

The curtains did not cover the windows which made sleeping a little harder as the sun goes down for few hours in Lithuania

Very good and beautiful no issues

Good location, own hotel parking, spacious room, pleasant staff.

There is no elevator so consider it in case you need one. Fire extinguisher in the corridor next to our room was expired in 2024. Room despite being spacious, was furnished with what seems to be some leftover furniture which typically does not belong in the hotel room. The floor was full of sand in the room, sticking to our feet, and some dried orange peels were hanging on the floor. The bathroom was quite clean, although I had a ‘pleasant’ meeting with a spider when taking a shower. The bed was made by simply putting a sheet on a ‘naked’ mattress with no protectant layer inbetween which is not how usually beds in hotels are made as it is quite unhygienic. The river dam is quite noisy so it might be difficult to fall asleep if you are used to silent environment. The mattress itself is hard but perhaps it’s just us liking the mattress to be softer. Pillows seemed to contain duck feathers and I am allergic to them. Hotel seems not to consider their allergic guests since there was no hypoallergenic alternative in the room. A shoehorn was missing too. The breakfast was okay considering the place, but generally it was bland and somehow far from a 3-star hotel. It can be okay-ish one night motel stay when you really need a bed for a night, but I better prefer Tauragė’s hotel since it is nearer to those 4-stars than this hotel to their 3-star standard, and the price is nearly the same.
