I never got around to writing my review of this charming hotel we visited in November, when we…read moretraveled to Gdansk to see the town from which my great grandfather emigrated. (Back then it was Danzig) I have the day off today, so here comes the most delayed review I have ever posted in my history of Yelping. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this Radisson Blu! The hotel was a manageable size, and the staff working the front desk were warm and friendly. The location is top notch, with the main entrance just barely off the main drag in Gdansk. In fact the restaurant in the hotel has windows on the main street. Being Radisson Rewards Gold members, we were upgraded to a suite, and sweet it was! It had a separate sitting/tv area with leather couches and chairs, a large bathroom with a separate toilet area, and a separate bedroom with windows that opened for fresh air. I travel often for work and something as simple as windows that actually open is a big thing for me! The breakfast was delicious with many options from which to choose. The hostess was lovely and we thoroughly enjoyed spending time there. They had a small bar to the side of the lobby, and more than once we had to search for someone to serve us a "zimne piwo". But that wasn't such a big deal. To sum it all up, we loved this place and will hopefully return on our next trip to Poland.

Restaurant First of all, undoubtedly include breakfast…read more This was the best breakfast offering of my life. Homemade yogurt smoothies. Homemade granola. GLUTEN FREE bread, lactose free milk and lactose free yogurt. Real eggs. Waffles. Desserts. Smoked and cured fish and meats. They have it all. Amazing. I also ate the steak dinner and an extra side of the fried potatoes (my Irish self couldn't help it). And it was delicious. Personally the peas were too crunchy for me but I see where they were going with the texture difference. The Room Nothing too special. I think all hotel rooms look about the same. The pillow option was poor. But the bed was comfortable and I could open my window for fresh air. Hot kettle in room for tea. Mini fridge. Nice enough. The Bathroom Option to have a tub or not. I chose tub. It was a nice shower head and heated towel racks. Good layout. Hot water heated up instantly which was amazing. I did not like the scent they had selected for the body wash and shampoo but that is subjective. Hotel Overall Clean, safe, friendly. According to the other review the surrounding buildings aren't nice. Well an update for that, they are doing construction on surrounding buildings but no notable noise in the room. The location of the hotel is great. Walk right into downtown. On the river. Very scenic.

I have only been to Poland once and Gdansk was it. I was here for a business meeting and I didn't…read moreget that much time to really get out and see everything. First, everything is really cheap in Poland. The hotel only cost something like $65 US Dollars. So this place could have been the equivalent of a Thrift Inn back in the US and it still would have been a bargain. The hotel is situated in the old section of what I was told used to be an island where all the grain was stored. I don't know what the deal was with the surrounding buildings, but most of them looked like they had been bombed out or abandoned. Some buildings had just one or two walls standing. Not sure why, but the aesthetics surrounding the building weren't that good. They are right on the river, but it was way too cold to really do anything out there. Also, it was pretty dirty actually. The rooms were nice, everything was clean, and it seemed very modern. Again, for the price, I was not expecting the quality and modern look of the rooms. My room price came with breakfast and it was a good quality spread of food. There were some local flavor there, but nothing out of the ordinary. The business spaces were modern and clean. Coffee and pastry service was good throughout the conference. It is a short walk to the downtown area (5 minutes) but be prepared to get hit up for lots of the dance clubs near the Hard Rock Café. There are plenty of good restaurants in that area to choose from. Lots of them are located on the river. Good hotel, friendly staff. If I have business in Gdansk, I would come back here.

The staff in this hotel were some of the rudest people I have ever encountered in a professional setting. The staff in the rooftop bar and in the restaurant genuinely seemed like they did not want our business. Both were empty and both times my family and I were dumbfounded at the lack of care to assist us. We had to ask if it was open then asked if we could switch tables in which we got a nasty "nie"- no. I will not be returning to this hotel frankly due to the less than professional staff working the hotel (save the few courteous people at the front desk). Not sure if it was the fact that we are foreigners to this country, or simply a lack of charm, but a very sad experience here. Hotel sufficed if you had no human interactions with the staff.

Paul was instrumental in helping me get my checked in luggage back, which had gotten lost during my flight here. I reserved the balcony suite, which far exceeded my expectations. I could see the clock tower and St Mary's church from my bedroom! Hands down the best hotel experience in my life! The bathroom is very nice. I like that it comes with hand soap, lotion, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The complimentary breakfast is decent. Plenty of outlets in the bedroom to charge my devices. The hotel location cannot be beat. It is located right next to Dluga street which is where Neptune's fountain is located. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a beautiful clean hotel stay with excellent customer service in the heart of Gdańsk!

They are keeping every penny for our planned 3 night stay, and wont even let us reschedule for next fall. Word to the wise: if you care about customer service and not getting screwed for failing to have anticipated a worldwide pandemic, book at a Marriott (full refund on a non-refundable rate) or thru Expedia (same) and stay in Krakow at the Hotel Unicus or in Warsaw at the Hotel Bristol. And never, ever use hotels.com. When I do get to Gdansk, you can be damned sure we wont be spending a moment at the Hotel Podewils.
