9/9 found this review helpful

My wife and I stayed here for four nights over Halloween in October / November 2007, and had a super time. We took advantage of the competitive rates and opted for the ‘Captain’s Apartment’ suite. The views over the River Motlawa and Gdansk’s Old Town were more than worth the small additional price.

Our suite had a large living room with sofa, desk, TV and a well stocked mini bar. The bedroom was also big with a comfortable bed, another TV and ample storage space. The bathroom had a stand-alone shower but no bath. One thing the suite was lacking was a vanity table with electric sockets and a mirror, as the only place my wife had to get ready was in the bathroom. The TV channels were also limited – there were a total of twelve, but only three were in English.

Breakfast was served between 7:00 and 10:30 and was a very tasty buffet of breads, meats, cheese, fish and salads. There was a limited hot selection of fried eggs, frankfurters and mushrooms, and freshly made scrambled eggs and omelettes were available on request. Because we were out and about so much we didn’t try the restaurant in the evening, but it always looked busy.

Staff were generally friendly and helpful, particularly the girls at reception who spoke good English and were more than happy to give advice on tourist information and travel options.

Previous posters have identified location as an issue. For us, there was no problem as it was no more than a comfortable ten minute stroll from the hotel to the Royal Way (ul. Dluga / Dlugi Targ) along the water’s edge. For those who are short of time– or want to save their energy for later in the day – taxis are easily available, and the hotel reception will book them for you. We found it handy to keep a hotel business card with us to show the drivers, as we found that they generally don’t speak English.

Some other things:

Getting from Lech Walesa airport to the hotel took about 20 minutes in a taxi and cost 50 zloty (approx. £9.00). You can walk to Gdansk Glowny train station in 25 minutes, or take a five minute taxi ride.

We especially recommend dining at Pod Lososiem (ul. Szeroka) and Goldwasser (ul. Dlugie Pobrzeze) in the evening. During the day we stopped in Pellowski’s for pastries & coffee, and Cafe Ferber for beers (both on ul. Dluga).

There is plenty to keep you busy in Gdansk for a day or two, but if you are there for any longer then you may want to consider getting out of town. We thoroughly enjoyed day trips to both the seaside resort town of Sopot (30 minutes by train) and the medieval town of Malbork (50 minutes by train) to visit the world’s largest brick castle, built by the Teutonic Knights in the 1274.

“Charming but no A/C”

3/3 found this review helpful

We drove up to this Hotel and it looked fantastic. Our rooms were a very good size. One overlooked the water which had a lovely view. The
other room faced the back. We were impressed.

It was very hot while there (August )and our only dissapointment was no A/C. We had opened the windows but a loud party over the street in
some flats (at the back) was in full swing. Luckily I had brought earplugs.

The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. The hotel was spotless.

The breakfast buffet was very good, lots of choice. The walk into town was about 10 mins, there is a ferry boat every hour I think, but it finished at 6pm.

Gdansk town is beautiful, you will find lots and lots of places to eat, all about the same in prices.

“Nice place”

4/4 found this review helpful

Stayed here with a group of friends on a cultural weekend in Gdansk covering the museums and opera houses (OK, I'll be honest, we were here mostly on a drinking weekend).

The hotel is a recently converted granary I think on one side of the river on the opposite bank to the Old Town. If you get rooms with a river view it's a lovely view.

The rooms were nice, with all the comfort you'd expect at the price. It's not 5 star, but then again it was more than fine, everything was modern and worked, and bathrooms a good size. The only one thing I would say about the rooms is that they had no Air Con (well the ones we were in didn't), so they were a bit on the hot side. You could open the windows which wasn't a huge problem, but there was a church in the nearby vicinity which did start donging its bells quite early on Sunday morning so you got woke up if you had the window open (unless you are a really heavy sleeper I suppose).

Location again was no problem. I see a few people have mentioned about the walk into the old town. There is a ferry which goes from just outside the hotel which runs till the late afternoon/early evening so you can get that in the day. In the evening the walk is only 10 minutes or so tops, and it's quite a pleasant walk past the marina and over some bridges, so unless you have problems walking (or are terminally lazy) then it's no problem whatsoever.

We only had breakfast there which was a buffet style and again was fine, and it kept open till the late morning which we appreciated. Hotel staff were also very friendly.

So I'd say if you are after a good hotel which is reasonably priced then go for it. If you're after a hotel in which you don't have to walk then get one the other side of the river, but you'll pay the extra which for a 10 minute walk tops isn't work it.

“good hotel, poor location off season”

2/3 found this review helpful

The hotel itself was very charming inside and out. Get a room overlooking the water. Rooms are small no tub, stand up shower. Good breakfast. I thought the location was a bit inconvenient because its located across the water from old town and its about a 20 minute walk to old town over a bridge. After walking around all day the last thing I wanted to do was walk back to the hotel in the freezing cold. I was in gdansk May 1st-4th and it was freezing cold! I had to buy a wool hat, mittens and scarf. Its very windy there.There is a little ferry that takes you across from the maritime museum ( near hotel) to old town runs every 15 mins. till 4pm only in season(May-sept.) This was great! cost 1pln. I would stay here again only if the ferry was running and only in the summer. Otherwise I would pick a hotel in old town.

“Nice stay at Krolewski”

2/2 found this review helpful

Finally decided to write a review, although it's been a while since I visited Krolewski. It is situated at the opposite bank of the river
from the main city centre, so if the small passenger ferry nearby is not running (1 euro fare I think), you have to walk a bit to the nearest bridge.

As I arrived early, I could not check-in at once, but there was no problem leaving my luggage at the reception. Same thing as I departed
in the late evening, checked out and left my luggage with the reception, very good. Friendly staff at the reception also helped me with sightseeing and how to get to Sopot by train (wanted to see the longest wooden pier in europe there).

The room was clean and comfortable, and the bathroom was excellent.

Breakfast was good, with quite a lot of selections.
