Downtown Forest Hostel & Camping

A lively site in a positive sense. The star is deducted because of the sanitary facilities, but otherwise everything is wonderfully arranged and you can walk to the old town. Whether you rent a cabin, come by motorhome, or stay in the hostel itself, it is the ideal base for all activities. Delicious croissants and cinnamon rolls, with free tea and coffee in the morning. Perfect.

It is a parking area in front of the hostel, on a slope. Friendly staff and clean bathrooms, but they are shared with hostel guests. Excellent location; the centre is a 20-minute walk away.

Far too expensive for the quality. We skipped the showers because they were old and dirty. Sleeping was impossible that evening because an event took place and the last people left at 3 a.m. The positive is the location: you are right in the centre, and the staff are friendly.

We found the accommodation absolutely okay. Yes, the sanitary facilities need a complete overhaul, definitely. The location is excellent; you can reach everything easily on foot. The staff are very friendly. You can order croissants for the morning, and coffee is free.

One Star for location. It is few minutes from the old town. Second Star for friendly staff. Now, grey water disposal thru the toilet which is outside and it is used by people outside. There is no drainage. Clean water from the tap if you have 20m hose. For 44€ for two people you get asphalted parking space with no dedicated service for camper. Electricity available at the back of the space parked.

We liked it. It is not cheap, of course, but parking in Vilnius is not cheap either. In return, you have electricity, service facilities, showers, and a pleasant atmosphere around the hostel. The location is fantastic!

Overpriced despite the location. The shower this morning was a unique experience; it was among the worst I have ever seen: dirty, drain full of hair, and a strong smell of mould. The second star is only for the location and friendly staff.

The only positive is the proximity to the old town. The pitches are nothing more than the hostel’s parking spaces. Showers and toilets are available and clean, but desperately in need of renovation. €44 in Lithuania for this quality is overpriced despite the location, in my view. The most expensive and worst overnight stay on our trip through the Baltics. Therefore, only two stars because of the location.

The location is good and reception is friendly. Registration via barcode takes a little while but is manageable. We were there with our 7.70 m motorhome and tore off the wastewater pipe because of the bumpy, steep approach. Recommendation: do not approach with larger motorhomes!

Simple but okay; some pitches are very steep. However, the location for the old town is unbeatable: just a short walk, with plenty of restaurants immediately nearby.

We thought it was worth the cost for the central location. There is a great good hall just across the road. Book ahead if you want to take up the offer of taking part in their BBQ. The staff were very helpful. The facilities were clean and the showers hot. It was tight but adequate in the carpark.

The advantages are free coffee and the possibility of ordering cinnamon rolls for the morning, plus being very close to the centre. The disadvantages are that it is definitely noisy in the evenings until midnight, as many people use the barbecue area. Be sure to call ahead to reserve a space.

At €44, the site is quite expensive, but almost without alternative for visiting Vilnius. Just a stone’s throw from the centre, reasonably quiet at night, at least when guests are considerate... Be sure to reserve by phone, as there are only a few spaces! And do not miss the morning cinnamon rolls!

Cool site, very central, and therefore quite expensive. Few spaces, so be sure to reserve!

We had reserved a pitch for our 7 m motorhome. On arrival, we were told we could only get an extremely sloping mini parking space, despite the reservation. We did not stay and instead spent the night in a parking lot.

Lovely place and busy. Very quiet at night though. It is a very small campsite and the entrance is narrow and hilly but ok just. Very popular and luckily we booked in advanced. We tried to stay an extra night but couldn’t. You do need to book in advance. Perfect location for sight seeing in a beautiful city. Loved the free coffee and ability to buy croissants in the morning.

Great location for visiting Vilnius. Perhaps a little expensive (€45 for a camper, two adults, and electricity), but it is a secure city site and everything is within walking distance. Toilets and showers were completely adequate for us. Space for a maximum of six motorhomes, maximum 6.5 m. Nice people and many backpackers because it is a hostel. Good food hall within a five-minute walk. Ideal site for Vilnius. We spent two good nights here.

Very good place to visit beautiful Vilnius; walk a short distance and you are in the city! Warm croissant and coffee in the morning by reservation. Very pleasant atmosphere!

Had two quiet nights here, no problem booking on the phone 15min before arrival or extending the stay for another night. Perfect for visiting the old town, and the neighbours are street food, so it's easy to find somewhere to eat. Payed 26€ for one campervan with one person. Didn't use the facilities as my van are fully equipped for off grid use. Can totally recommend for visiting the city!

Very nice. Remember to reserve! Six spaces are available for vans. For €44 we spent a quiet night with electricity and a shower. Parking is slightly sloping. You can even reserve breakfast. Very well located in Vilnius, just steps from the Užupis district.

The old town is within walking distance. The site is partly uneven; levelling blocks are available. In the low season, the toilets and showers are adequate and very clean. Unfortunately, there is no disposal for chemical toilets or grey water in winter.

The location is very good for visiting the old town; the toilet and shower are in the hostel and are clean. They have six camper spaces on very uneven ground.

The location is perfect. You can reach the city very quickly. We had peace and quiet, with no noisy neighbours. The site is partly very uneven; levelling blocks are available. We find €44 per night expensive. There are enough toilets; showers are in the hostel. Ideal for visiting the city.

Everything you need is available. The dryer is currently broken, and the toilets and showers are often occupied. The area and hostel are rather run-down. The city is nearby and chaotic, but everything is easy to reach. It is doable, since there are hardly any alternatives anyway.

Very central location. Leafy but not amazing scenery. 20 min walk anywhere in town. Price includes elec + all hostel amenities. Free coffee every morning. showers are on every level of hostel not just the lower floor, and toilets inside and outside too. Place to fill up water and empty grey waste. Outdoor sinks and tables etc to use. We were there Thurs + Fri night and it was very quiet for us.

Rough approach. Too few showers and, above all, toilets for so many people. Close to the city. We stayed only one night and then moved to a parking lot.

The proximity to the city is ideal, but at night it is very, very noisy because of the young people from the hostel; our last night lasted until 3 a.m.

We paid €36 per night for a small space including two people. A large space costs €44. Showers are on the first floor, men on the right and women on the left; toilets are on the ground floor, and the kitchen is in the hostel basement. Reservation recommended. The rest is as already described. Arrival from 1 p.m., departure by 1 p.m. Levelling blocks are available because some pitches are sloping. Recommended because parking costs in the city have been very high since 1 July 2025.

The location is excellent, but there is little space—be sure to call ahead and reserve.
