Ibis Kaunas Centre

“Dead on.”

Hotel is clean and tidy and the staff are very helpful and friendly.

Hotel is clean and tidy and the staff are very helpful and friendly. One shortcoming is that it doesn’t have a bar, nor restaurant that is open in the evenings for food, which is not ideal as there are very limited facilities close by. One other issue is that the rooms and towels are only changed every fourth day, which is not ideal when you are only there for four nights.

“Ideal for short stays”

This hotel is in a really good area, walkable distance to the train station, nearby mall and other supermarkets, plus right next to a taxi rank and bus station.

This hotel is in a really good area, walkable distance to the train station, nearby mall and other supermarkets, plus right next to a taxi rank and bus station. I stayed here for 10 days in a standard double room. Positives: - Double bed mattress - Decent wifi - Good storage for clothes - Modern look in room - Friendly receptionist - Clean & spacious lobby - Good location - SmartTV - Ecofriendly by doing housekeeping every 4 days Negatives: - Needs more hook storage in bedroom and bathroom - No plug sockets besides the bed - No shelf storage in bathroom - Only 1 rubbish bin that's kept in the bathroom - Housekeeping doesn’t: --- replace the dirty mugs with clean ones --- clean/vacuum the floor The hotel's website needs to update what amenities they have as they say they provide slippers and robes, which I asked for and they don't anymore. Before arrival I asked if there was a kettle and a mini fridge, they said there wasn't a fridge but they could offer a spare kettle. I decided to take my own travel kettle in case, as I would rely on it a lot. They provided me with a kettle even though they couldn't guarantee it, I appreciate that they did. I asked if I could have a room near the lift and they did give me a room however it was an accessible room as I was here to have surgery. Two of the walls were in the corridor and the hotel page said that the rooms are soundproof. However, when your room is that exposed to corridor noise, it is quite annoying. There were kids running up and down the floor, which I didn’t mind until they’d run into the wall, bang on it etc. When it got to the quiet nighttime hours (10pm-7am) I phoned the front desk and they dealt with the disturbance promptly. It was spacious and the bathroom was basically a wet room. While there are handrails to hold on to, there was no seat or ledge built in to sit on and the floor had no anti-slip feature meaning that I almost slipped and fell when having a shower. I had to keep one of the towels on the floor to stand on to prevent slipping. There is a good hairdryer though. Also the bathroom products are 3-in-1 bottles; hair, body and handwash. One placed at the shower and one at the sink. Since it was in winter, they only offered breakfast which I did not try out. Overall it's a nice place to stay short term. It is warm to stay within the colder months, with easy access to nearby shops and restaurants.

“Great location just a few minutes walk from all the main sites”

stayed at the Ibis Kaunas Centre for two nights and overall had a good experience. The location is a real highlight. It’s very central, about a 10-minute walk to the Old Town, right next to the main bus station, and less than five minutes on foot to the main train station. Getting around Kaunas was easy from here. The room itself was clean and comfortable, exactly what I expect from an Ibis. Everything was in good order and suitable for a short stay. Breakfast was a bit mixed. On the first morning it was extremely busy, with most of the food already gone and no available seating, so I ended up taking breakfast back to my room. The second morning was much better as I went earlier and had no issues at all. The food selection was fine when it was properly stocked. Overall, it’s a solid option if you’re looking for a clean, practical hotel in a very convenient location, especially for travel connections.
