Situated in the very center of Vilnius on Gediminas Avenue, the building known today as the Neringa Hotel was built in 1917 and began operating as a hotel in 1939. After a while, in the late '50 it was reconstructed and newly designed by architect brothers Algimantas and Vytautas Nasvyčiai. The Neringa Hotel opened its doors to the public for the first time in 1960. Along with its iconic restaurant, the hotel is considered to be an important cultural center of Vilnius and a national symbol of modernism. In 2021, more than 100 years after being built and over 80 years as a hotel, the building was opened after 3 years of reconstruction. The hotel now features 124 new rooms, three conference halls, a gym and underground parking. Although reconstructed using smart engineering solutions, the historical value of the building was preserved along with its original facade, works of art and original design concept.
