"We had to revise our work calendar but the key issues have been settled and DoubleTree by Hilton should open doors in Vilnius in 2020," Sarunas Matijosaitis, board chairman at Viciunu Grupe, said in a press release.

In his words, the main construction work will be started in spring of 2018. The initial plan was to start the construction this year and finish it in 2019. The company secured a construction permit on Tuesday.
