Enjoy a stay here
It was a really nice experience to stay here. Just a step away from the sea, with nice view from the window. Rooms are newly renowated and really clean.Breakfast was really good and fresh. Good coffee. Bad condition of the building outisde and for the swimming pool. No "additional points" unfortunatelly. Just to sleep and eat rather not spending and enjoying long time there.

Friendly hotel - great for families
Tasty and fresh breakfast, friendly staff (front and back office), recently refurbished hotel but missing my bathtub! slightly smaller rooms than in the past, but no problem. Kids' play room - enjoyed by my son (table tennis was fun!). Perfect sea location, too. Recommended.

great location and poor service
the location is perfect, hotel is undergoing a renovation hence it might be a little dusty however the room we stayed in was freshly renovated since it's a near-sea location there was a lot of sand on the floor and when we asked for cleaning services we were told to clean ourselves with a broom and dustpan that was not even in the room (at the check-in we were told we can ask for cleaning/towels when needed as this is on demand service during covid which turn out not to be true when we actually needed this service) I am disappointed with the reception in general as our flush stopped working the first evening and when i called the reception at 10 PM their only comment was - sorry, technician comes back at 8 am we cannot do anything now... I did ask for room change and only after some argument we were offered the same room with sea view (after no offer receptionist offered us a standard room with no view and then magically found available room with the view after I refused to change room for lower standard) This is not a service I expect for such a price.

Poor
The floor I was staying on was undergoing renovation, the carpets in the hallway were dirty, and whilst the room was nice and clean the communal areas were not the best...there was no real restaurant other than a small section by the bar which wasn't always manned. The breakfast was not good either...apart from the person who welcomed me on reception the staff were not friendly. I will not be going back. I expected more from the Novotel.

Lovely stay highly reccomend
The lady on reception , I believe her name was Daria (sorry if I've spelt it wrong) was absolutely amazing , so helpful and freindly you couldn't ask for better, she helped translate for us , made phone call on our behalf (to find out if our pizza was enroute from a takeaway) . Sorted out our brekfast issue , generally an asset to the hotel. The rooms were clean and beds extremely comfy. The hotel is practically on the beach just walk through hotel gardens and straight out to a beautiful beach .

The cleaning staff was brilliant. Counter staff... it depends who was working. I got a room next to some refurbishment works in the old part even as I paid almost €500 for a single room and 1 week stay. They didn't want to sort it out saying I should ring Expedia! What a joke! only the last day of my stay I've got a free breakfast as I was able to speak to a supervisor/manager. Another thing is the pool. I choose the Novotel as they have a pool but it wasn't mentioned, the pool is also to be used by people from the outside. The pool is very small and always full. I didn't get a chance to use it even once. The gym was ok.

Just right for a relaxing long weekend away, lovely walkway behind hotel all along sea front with some lovely light cafes/ Restaurants. Staff very helpful and pleasing. Found Wi Fi up and down, could not get internet at times and when connected kept losing connection. Breakfast fine with plenty to chose from and staff quick to take things away when finished. Would recommend to anyone.

The breakfast buffet was excellent; fresh, delicious and there were many choices. The location next to the beach is great. Children loved swimming in the sea and in the swimming pool of the hotel even the pool area may need some renovation during the coming years.

The hotel has potential but not there yet
The floors designated for family have not been remodeled. It's old and cramped and without air condition. We did our best to stay out of the room. There were some positives: location to the beach, play area for the kids and the morning buffet.

Excellen Hotel
I've stayed there with my family including 2 children. As it was raining for 3 days there was plenty to do in the hotel eg. gym, swimming pool, playground for kids, bar & restaurant. We didn't get bored! The Hotel service is friendly and the atmosphere is relaxing. Rooms are quite & very clean. Great location & perfect access to the beach. It's definitely place to come back! Thank you!

Good for families.
We stayed here last year and loved it, which is why we returned this year. Unfortunately, it wasn't as rosy as we remembered. There are a lot of restaurants within walking distance, but last year they had a modestly priced dinner buffet, which is sadly no longer available. I also had forgotten about the noise. A lot of loud music and drunks that could still be heard from the eighth floor, even with the window closed. This usually ended by midnight, but unfortunately the nearby construction started by eight in the morning. Some things were still good, the staff is helpful, the location is great for the beach, pool, exercise room, tennis, large buffet breakfast option, excellent for families, you can even bring your dog. Not sure we will be returning though.

Would go again!
We had a wonderful time and cannot say enough good things about the hotel. It was clean, reasonably priced, the staff was friendly and helpful, simply perfect! We booked the room with full breakfast, this included scrambled or boiled eggs, assorted sausages, black pudding, baked beans or mushrooms (they alternated), an assortment of fruits, cold meats, cheeses, breads, sweet rolls, cereals, yogurt, juice, and hot drinks. We also tried several things from the room service menu. Everything was excellent. The only complaint is that they did not seem to know what exactly a 'Club Sandwich' is, and sent some rather creative interpretations of this. Not bad, just not a club. The dinner buffet in the dining room was also good, a bit cheaper, but simpler food. The location was perfect if you want to go to the beach. Along the path behind the hotel are several restaurants, we liked the one by the boat club. Excellent food if you're not in a hurry, and we recommend the apple pancakes. There is also mini-golf close by, and the pier is about 2 km away. There are many activities in the hotel itself, for the whole family. Pool, exercise room, tennis, video games in the lobby, and more. We spent most of our ten days relaxing in or near the hotel. We would definitely stay here again or recommend it to a friend.

Average Hotel in a great Beach location
There are pluses and minuses if you are thinking of staying here....No air-conditioning in the rooms....and No room safe in the rooms either....... Reception in fairness gave us a fan without charge..Shower was excellent and bathroom was spotless (if you have longer hair bring your own Hairdryer)... Breakfast was very good... The location on the beach is excellent and easily accessible from the hotel sun loungers are available to hire from hotel for 10 zloty per day.....the hotel pool needs an upgrade and looks a bit worn and stained in places .....didn't use the gym .... Didn't eat in restaurant as much better value to be had in Sopot or in the beach bars and restaurants along the route. Its a lovely walk into the centre ..... reception staff were very friendly printed off our boarding passes for the return trip (just email to them as an attachment and they will print off at no cost....... rooms while comfortable were worn in places and i just felt the hotel needs some care and attention to bring it up to good in my views....... going to Gdansk there is a tram stop 5 minutes from the hotel front door which will bring you to the centre for approx 4 zloty per person each way..Wifi .free wifi in hotel

Short solo break
This hotel is comfortable and quiet but is let down by the standard of the food and the area around the hotel. During the day, it is very good - close to public transport (several trams go into Gdansk centre) and right across from the beach. However, in the evening, it is very dark around the hotel and there are no restaurants (closest are in Sopot centre, about 20 min walk or taxi ride away). As long as you are aware of these things and they don't bother you, it is still a good hotel to stay at as the rooms are comfortable and it is good value.

Loved my stay
The hotel staff was very friendly, professional and very helpful. The location of the hotel is fabulous: close to the beach (to which you walk through a garden). You can hear the sea through your window and I had a wonderful view from the 8th floor. I very much enjoyed my stay.
