3 Best Hotels in The Baltic Coast and Pomerania, Poland

Comfortable rooms and flats in this aparthotel are furnished with elegance and simplicity; though not all units are full apartments, even the classic (the most basic standard) rooms have a refrigerator as well as coffee- and tea-making facilities. Deluxe and superior rooms, as well as suites, have their own kitchenettes, complete with a microwave oven and a dishwasher, making them suitable for a longer stay. Although the rooms are brand-new, the place itself is historic. The location is unbeatable: in the very heart of the city, among tenement houses and courtyards of Old Gdańsk. Some rooms offer views to the fantastic, huge Gothic church of St. Mary's; from others, you can see all the way to and across the river. Although the reception area is surpringly small, the staff at the desk are always friendly and helpful, ready to give advice or to assist with transportation arrangements.

Once the royal granary across the river Motława, this hotel offers rooms overlooking the picturesque Old Town and the Crane (though with these rooms there is a danger you'll spend most of your stay staring out of the window). Rooms are comfortable and clean, although some have slightly dated decor. The restaurant serves breakfast in the morning, and à la carte meals for lunch and dinner. In the summer, outdoor tables by the water are everyone's favourite place to sip a cocktail or a coffee, while swans swim by. You can reach the hotel from the Old Town either by ferry or by a 10-minute walk across the bridge that links Old Town to Ołowianka island.

This brand-new, Scandinavian-style hotel in Sopot can't be beaten for its convenient location right at the (recently modernized) light-rail and long-distance railway station with a fast and easy connection to Gdańsk and Gdynia. At the same time, it's at the top of the lively Monciak (Monte Cassino) street, the entertainment, dining, and shopping promenade leading straight onto the famous Sopot pier (the "molo"). In fact, the pier and the Sopot beach are only 500 meters away. The rooms were designed in "Scandi" style, which has become fashionable in this seaside town, with wood panels, white walls, minimalist furniture, and no carpets. What is important in summer months is that all rooms are air-conditioned. Simple and pleasant, they are surprisingly spacious for their budget prices.
