The hotel Pacai is the first Design Hotel in the Baltic states. It is located in Vilnius, capital of Lithuania. The central hotel is just a few minutes away from the city’s most important sites.
The architect Saulius Mikstas is responsible for the conversion of this great baroque palace. Dating back to 1677, the palace had witnessed the times of Lithuanian-Polish Commonwealth, the rule of Russian tsars and Napoleon’s grand entrance to Vilnius.
Anchored by a dramatically proportioned 500sqm courtyard, the public spaces and 104 rooms all feature a handsome palette of deep grey walls and drapes, tufted leather finishes, marble benches and slender-limbed midcentury furniture.
The highlight of the mansion is the textured old bones which peek out like an architectural palimpsest at unexpected moments – a wall of exposed original bricks and barn timber here, cracked pilasters and a patch of ancient frescos there.
