Hilton Garden Inn opens in Lithuania

Hilton Garden Inn, one of Hilton’s 17 market-leading brands, has opened in the heart of Lithuanian capital Vilnius.

The 164-room Hilton Garden Inn Vilnius City Centre is located in the main street of Vilnius - Gedimino Avenue, running between Seimas Palace and Cathedral Square. In the neighbourhood, the Ministry of the Foreign Affairs, Lithuanian Parliament, KGB Museum and Lukiskiu Square are popular meeting spots for locals.

As a Unesco protected heritage site, Vilnius Old Town is just a 10-minute walk away, while Vilnius International Airport is 5.5 kilometres from the hotel.

Adapted to meet today’s business traveller needs, the 7,000-sq-m hotel was designed to deliver functionality and comfort with local flavour. Therefore, ergonomic furniture, comfortable beds and free high-speed internet are in each guest room. Fitness enthusiasts will also enjoy exercising in the fitness centre overlooking the skyline of the city, and for those looking to relax, there is a memorable rooftop terrace with breathtaking views.
The hotel’s meetings and events centre features three multifunctional meeting rooms that can be united into one conference venue for 160 delegates. Workshops, fairs, cocktail receptions and other corporate or private events will perfectly fit the 130-sq-m pre-function area.

The property’s signature dining venue, “Beef Room,” embraces the spirit of an excellent steakhouse by offering exclusive quality meat and locally sourced ingredients. Guests can finish their day by enjoying signature cocktails, craft beer and seasonal small plates in the Lobby Bar. The Shop will also satisfy any hunger with a wide range of snacks and beverages that is open 24 hours a day.

Hilton Garden Inn Vilnius City Centre was designed by the Lithuanian “Jurta” design company. The interior offers plenty of social space and features details that reflect authentic Lithuanian cultural heritage including brass flooring, a Himmeli light installation and a fireplace imitating a Pagan altar. Calm and tranquil earth colours dominate the interior, a signature style of the Baltic region, along with illuminated trees in the “Garden Lounge” that extend the outdoor feeling of Gedimino Avenue.

“We aim to deliver heartfelt experiences, that Hilton Garden Inn brand is well known for, to each guest visiting the beautiful city of Vilnius,” said Tadas Evaltas, general manager of Hilton Garden Inn Vilnius City Centre. “Famous for its fascinating history and having one of the largest surviving medieval old towns in Northern Europe, Vilnius boasts elegance and creates a unique cultural impression. Pulsing with youthful energy and creative green spaces filled with seasonal festive events, Vilnius offers travellers a sensorial escape."

Hilton Garden Inn Vilnius City Centre is also part of Hilton Honors, the guest-loyalty programme for Hilton's 17 distinct hotel brands.

To celebrate the hotel’s opening, Hilton Honors members will earn double points per night for bookings between July 5 and 31. - TradeArabia News Service
