Located just under three hundred miles to the north of Warsaw at the mouth of the Vistula and was once the Prussian city of Danzig. The birthplace of Solidarity, Gdansk is the centre of the Polish Riviera and the gateway to castle country, which boasts structures such as the fortress of the Teutonic Knights of Malbork. This is a great place for lovers of history and culture to spend a few nights and the city includes its fair share of luxury hotels for visitors to choose from. Here is a selection of the city’s leading luxury hotels.
Radisson RED Gdansk
A funky port warehouse turned boutique hotel with just 30 bedrooms, this Radisson RED is located on Granary Island in the appealing city of Gdansk. Launched in 2022, the first Radisson RED in Poland, it sits beside the Motława River. The decor fuses retro shapes and textures, with masculine urban elements and loft-style original features like exposed brick walls. In addition to standard bedrooms, there are self-catering apartments, split-level family rooms and suites — some with river views and freestanding tubs. The hotel also incorporates the Whiskey in the Jar steakhouse, a bar and a fitness centre.
Hotel Gdańsk Boutique
This luxurious establishment perfectly combines elements of both old and new as it is located in both a fully restored 18th-century granary as well as an enchanting modern marine-style building. All of the rooms here are extremely stylish and guests can choose between a view of the Old Town or the pretty yacht marina. The most spacious rooms also come complete with their own private seating area and this is a great place to relax and unwind. Beer lovers will also be in their element as the hotel includes its very own brewery and no stay would be complete without allowing the time to sample a glass or two of this award-winning beer.
Hotel Podewils
Located in the picturesque Old Town district, this elegant and historical hotel is an attraction all by itself. This is the perfect place to stay for couples who are planning a romantic trip and by far the best option is the grand deluxe rooms, which treats guests to a stunning view of the Motława River and Old Town from their balcony. There are more river views to soak up while dining in style on the restaurant terrace, while the main dining room is extremely grand and is sure to impress.
Dwór Oliwski
Set in the heart of the picturesque Tricity Landscape Park the Dwór Oliwsk features a unique atmosphere and the 70 luxury rooms, including 2 apartments and 11 spacious junior suites include plenty of homely yet luxurious touches.

The hotel’s restaurant offers French cuisine and flavours blended with traditional Polish classics and in the summer months eat alfresco on the garden terrace
PURO Hotel Gdańsk Stare Miasto
This contemporary hotel brand takes full advantage of its marina setting and even guests who don’t have a marina-facing room will find plenty of secluded alcoves where they can soak up the scenery.

IBB Hotel Długi Targ
