Hotel Metropolis

It is well located basic hotel, perfect for a short stay in Kaunas old town. Exceptionally helpful and polite staff. Hotel is definitely in need of modernisation, although I appreciate its historical charm.

Good location staff where friendly and helpful would definitely recommen 😊

Nice place

If indeed it is Mayor Matijošaitis or his family who own the property, I would suggest, as they pour millions into new construction, that they invest in upgrading this historic property, which, except for its charming period lobby, seems stuck in the Soviet era. Door trim in bath is showing rot, hair dryer is dinged and cracked (though working), few electric wall outlets, and, apparently, an outdated sewer system that requires used toilet paper to be put in a bin. The staff were courteous but clueless about the rich history of the hotel. Breakfast buffet was very good. Perhaps a lift to the second floor could be incorporated into the strongly encouraged renovation. A little cringeworthy was the hotel registration form that had to be completed manually and had instructions in Lithuanian, English, and Russian. One almost expected, as in former times, to find a babushka sitting at her post in the hotel corridor taking note of who came and went.
