Best Baltic Hotel Palanga

You’ll find the Monist restaurant housed inside the boutique hotel of the same name, along with a comfortable bar for pre-dinner drinks, creating a cossetting retreat from the world outside. The room is decorated in warm, natural colours, and nature guides the cooking too, with dishes inspired by the seasons. The à la carte menu offers plenty of choice and while it's underpinned by traditional Lithuanian flavours, here they’re given a refreshingly restorative modern makeover. Highlights include the sea bass with parsnip purée and, for dessert, the sticky layered cake with quince and hazelnuts.
