Honestly pretty misleading advert.
Appeared like the booking would be a little cabin infront of a lake /water, turns out that's just a grassy patch for camping and the room is in a different shabbier building, no water body around at all.

Besides that, not a bad place, just misleading ad.

Room is clean. This is a hostel so if you prefer peace and quiet this place might not be for you. Sound travels as well, so I could hear people conversing under my window at 3am in the morning which disturbed my sleep. Earplugs are provided however by the accomodation. Free filter coffee provided each morning was great and the location is excellent. Only 2 toilets on my level between quite a few rooms as well (not ideal).

I booked a cabin for 3 nights. The photos looked wonderful. Cabins in front of a small lake and the ad stated a private bathroom in the cabin. We arrived to a run down building and our cabin did not have a bathroom, it was a shared both in the main building. There were also not enough bathrooms for all the guests. Instead of a lake in front of the cabin, it was wall to wall tents and campers. The only good thing was the staff who refunded me for 2 nights and I only had to spend one night there. It is a run down hostel and not a cheap one either. Be informed if you book a room or cabin.

The staff were welcoming and helpful. I had my own room, which was perfectly comfortable and quiet. The place is essentially a hostel and campground (in an urban setting). The yard was lively on the weekend evenings as there is an outdoor bar and BBQ service that locals also use. They serve pastries (small charge) and free coffee in the morning. The location is reasonably convenient, walkable to the old town sights. All-in-all a pleasant place to stay.

Ehhh in the winter, but sure the summer is great!

We stayed in the winter with not many guests there and I’m assuming a totally different experience than that in the warmer months. No social vibe simply because not many guests. The open areas are warm but our room was very cold, and we have no in-room temp control. The room was very damp as well, and there were dehumidifiers in some of the open spaces so this is clearly an issue they’re aware of. One of the beds in our room was actually moist to the touch. The bathrooms could use some updating or atleast more detailed cleaning, or changing the trash since you’re advised to throw it in the bin vs down the toilet - it can get quite smelly and I can’t imagine the smell in the summer months!

The front desk staff did their jobs but weren’t really warm or hospitable. We were also here while there was significant snow on the ground and the steep staircase to the road wasn’t cleaned until day 3.

Overall, the value for money was good. Walkable to a food hall, modern area and the bus stop, but definitely not “10 minutes walk to the old town.” I would be open to returning in the summer months when it’s warmer and you can enjoy the lovely outside space.

Friendly and pleasant hostel close to Old Town

I really enjoyed my stay at Downtown Forest Hostel. The staff were all friendly, welcoming and full of smiles. The hostel itself was a very pleasant place, with a nice sized kitchen, plenty of seating areas, laundry facilities and an outdoor seating and bar area. Free tea and coffee was served every morning.

The hostel is easily reached by bus from Vilnius Train Station and is easily walked to from the Old Town. I found myself in a park right by the hostel whilst wandering the Old Town at leisure, it is that close.

The hostel is clean and comfortable and I would definitely recommend it for a stay in Vilnius. If I am ever in Vilnius again I will look to rebook here.

Hostel génial

Hostel génial pour passer quelques jours à Vilnius ! La cadre est super (même en hiver) et l'emplacement est idéal. On est à côté de la vieille ville, tout est accessible à pied (la gare également).
Nous avions une chambre avec salle de bain, tout était propre et nous avions plus d'équipements que ce à quoi nous nous attendions. Même du café et du thé offert. Le personnel est très sympathique et serviable. La cuisine commune est relativement propre et il y a tout le nécessaire pour cuisiner. Il y a beaucoup de place dans les espaces communs pour manger où même se reposer / faire des jeux, c'est très confortable. Je recommande 100%. Petit plus pour ma déco/ le style de l'auberge qui est très mignon.

Cool vibe for a hostel- it is in a quiet area of Vilnius, and there is lots of green space around.

Gem that is a little too hidden

Nice neighbourhood, but fair walk from old town. Several concerts/parties in hotel terrance, but ended at reasonable hour. Good energy. Staff enthusiastic, but busy. Simple rooms with character. Great value. Would stay again. Biggest downside was location.

Super friendly staff, comfortable room, shared bathroom facilities kept very clean. There is an amazing bar and beer garden on site. Free parking. Highly recommend!!! Apparently they have opened a hostel in Nida too!

Hostel is a hostel

Good enough for this price, but too cold and damp in the room (and it was in May!).
Friendly staff.

decent accomodation with good access to city

An above-average hostel with clean rooms, full kitchen and cheap beer. Lots of toilets but only two showers. 15 minutes walk to Cathedral Square. Directly beside the Uzupys arts district with bars and groceries nearby.

Nice clean hostel

Very relaxed clean hostel at the edge of Vilnius. Very friendly staff and you can order breakfast with free tea or coffee. Room clean and comfortable but only net curtains so hard to sleep.

Ich hab spontan meinen Aufenthalt in Vilnius in diesem Hotel verlängert. Ich war zuvor in einem anderen Hotel und dachte mir, ich könnte auch mal in ein Hostel gehen mit lockerer Atmosphäre und ich wurde wirklich sehr herzlich von einer jungen Dame empfangen. Der Empfangsbereich ist sehr gemütlich gestaltet, weil dort auch gleich ein Aufenthaltsbereich ist, und draußen sind alle möglichen Sitzgelegenheiten wie in einem Wald, Grillstelle und Bar… Das Zimmer ist klein, aber für das, was man halt da braucht, komplett ausreichend. Es ist natürlich nicht Schallisoliert und abends war es etwas teils durch die Gäste laut. Auch nach der offiziellen Nachtruhe aber egal, man kriegt sogar Ohrstöpsel also von dem her alles okay. Ansonsten sind alle möglichen Räumlichkeiten vorhanden. Es gibt genug Klos, genug Duschen, ein Zahnputzzimmer, auch ne Küche und sogar Spielecken und wo man sich für Business hinsetzen kann. Also man hat genug Platz.


Ich würde das Hostel gerne mal erleben im Sommer und bei besserem Wetter da ist die Stimmung sicher bombastisch.

Es war fein!
