Franciscan guest house

Forty steps from Klaipėda's Old Town, the Franciscan guest house occupies a former monastery building on Savanorių gatvė, its chapel/shrine still intact alongside a quiet garden courtyard. Soundproof rooms with parquet floors face either the cloister side or the street.

Housekeeping runs daily, and the shared lounge doubles as a games room for families passing wet Baltic afternoons indoors. Bicycles are available for the ride to the pier and Curonian Spit ferry.

The setting suits travellers wanting a calm, low-key base within walking distance of the Dane riverside promenade, rather than a hotel-style property with bars and events.
