Hotel Podewils Gdansk
Overview
From Andrew Harper
From the Hideaway Report
The 10-room Hotel Podewils is housed within a 1728 brick mansion and offers fine views over the Motawa River, the city’s yacht marina and its old port (where an intriguing warehouse is still equipped with a medieval wooden gantry). The property is also located just yards from both the Polish Maritime Museum and the Polish Baltic Philharmonic. Its lodgings are quiet, well-lit and spacious, with a traditional décor of chintz wallpaper, thick wall-to-wall carpeting and brass chandeliers. Our bath was divided between two small rooms, one containing a whirlpool tub and shower, the other a vanity. The wireless Internet is free.
The Podewils offers a fine restaurant with a notable wine list, and in summer, meals are served on a delightful terrace beside the river. During our recent visit, we learned that the hotel is currently for sale and we can only hope that the new owners will appreciate and preserve the character of this cozy and comfortable property.
