No in-room phone at the Vytauto hotel (common phone available), but you do get satellite television, guarded parking and room service. Both hotels offer upscale dining in their restaurants.

Opened by basketball great Arvydas Sabonis and his wife Ingrida, this lovely resort hotel surrounded by pine trees and across the street from the botanical park is the best of the deluxe and luxurious.

Dinosaurs of the Hotel Industry

The following hotels tend to have clean and spacious rooms. However, the decor has not forsaken decades past for a modern look. So expect shabby bathrooms and single beds.

Out in the barren desert near the Vanagupe, Perliukas and Rugelis hotels. The price is right even if it means that you will spend your vacation nights in a big concrete block just 800m from the beach. A public pool and sauna is just a few minutes' walk away. Parking is also available.

It might not be the most attractive hotel in Palanga, but its right in the heart of town. Rooms are simple and drab, but have balconies. Suites have telephones.

This big concrete building houses rooms that aren't much more attractive than its solid grey exterior. Lux means you get two rooms instead of one along with a television and refrigerator. A public pool and sauna is just across the street and the beach is only 200m away. No breakfast.

Although it's got an old concrete-block style to it, the sunny rooms are mysteriously quaint. The balconies are inviting, the showers tolerable and the service sweet. A great price considering the city centre location. All rooms have a television, refrigerator, telephone and showers. No breakfast.

Built in 178, part of this hotel is undergoing slow-but-steady renovations. The rooms are nothing fantastic and leave much to be desired aesthetically, but they're functional and close to the beach. Billiards, cafe. No breakfast.

Don't be fooled by the new look of the exterior, inside the rooms sing the same old song. Although they're some of the nicest 'old-style' rooms in Palanga. The pine walls add a sweet scent to the rooms too. It's a bit better than the neighbouring Rugelis. There's a public pool and sauna just across the street and the hotel is 800m from the beach. Rooms have televisions and refrigerators. No breakfast.

Cheap Sleeps

While not an official hostel, this nice family takes in weary souls who need a bed, but they will interrogate you first - just smile and nod until it's over. Great location near the beach and Basanaviciaus. We hope it sticks around until you get to experience it, but it could vanish - so call ahead. Hosts speak Lithuanian, Polish and Russian.

Though they have more expensive rooms, their singles with shared WC are reasonably priced and quite comfortable. Breakfast costs 15Lt. Send correspondence to Neries 7/12, LT-5720 Palanga.
