With its refined and luxurious interior, the Podewils Hotel offers guests charming accommodation in an 18th century building near Gdansk’s Old Town. All rooms are decorated in an elegant classical style, but still have all the modern amenities including air conditioning, minibars, in-room safes, TV’s, telephones, radio alarm clocks and hairdryers. There is a small lounge available for guest use, with free Wi-Fi available in the lounge and close by. A buffet breakfast is available from 8:00 to 10:30, while the hotel also has an elegant restaurant facing the marina. In summer the outdoor terrace is the ideal place to enjoy a meal or drink. The hotel is just minutes away from the Old Town. St Mary’s Basilica is less than 10 minutes’ walk away, while Gdansk’s main railway station is two miles from the Podewils Hotel.
One of the first things guests comment on seems to be the great views across the water to Gdansk's Old Town. The public areas, and many of the rooms, have this view and guests found it a very charming and romantic outlook.
While not actually in the Old Town itself, guests still loved that they could reach it in just a few minutes' walk. In fact, many say that they preferred being slightly out of the centre since it was a bit quieter than it would have been otherwise.
Perhaps the most commonly delivered compliment is that the staff are a major credit to the hotel. They are described as immensely friendly, and very efficient in carrying out their duties.
While it seems these are not common in Polish hotels, several guests definitely missed the tea and coffee making facilities they were used to elsewhere. Hot drinks are available from room service, of course, but they felt it would have been much more convenient, and cheaper, if they could simply make themselves a hot drink every now and then.
While this was not a major complaint, it was pointed out that there were very few English language stations available. Guests watching TV should be prepared for some fun by making up their own subtitles to Polish programs as they go along.
The décor at the hotel is elegant and classical, certainly as far from modern and minimalist as possible. While many guests love this old world charm, some find it just a little oppressive. Guests who like the sleek and modern will not find it here.
