Hotel description

The Narutis Hotel is located on
Pilies Street, the main artery of Vilnius' Old Town. This
building is the architectural monument of the 16th century
that was specially built to house a hotel and was first
mentioned in 1581 in the Book of World Cities published
in Cologne.
In the 16-19th centuries professors,
scholars and students (whose families belonged to the nobility)
of the University of Vilnius, one of the oldest universities
in Eastern Europe, as well as famous people of science and
culture lived in the Hotel. Poets Adam Miczkiewicz and Juliusz
Slowacki, writer and historian Kraszewski have lived and
worked in this building.
Windows of the hotel face the square
of St. John's Church of the University, which is the most
beautiful square of the Old Town. Other windows have a view
over a quiet courtyard of the former Botanical Garden of
the University. From the hotel windows you can see a beautiful
panorama of church and mansion towers, Gediminas Castle
and Hill of Three Crosses.
The Narutis Hotel is one of the
most unique hotels in Eastern Europe because it preserved
its original structure from the Middle Ages, and it has
its own closed inner courtyard which was covered with a
glass roof during the major reconstruction 5 years ago.
