Pluski Holidays from £163

This hotel clearly had its prime some time ago and is now due for a refurbishment. It is clean, I’ll give it that. The staff are fantastic, and the food is as good as ever - but while it used to impress a few years ago, it now feels quite outdated. The heating/air conditioning system is old and barely works, making the room stuffy and weird temp. The amenities are well maintained and clean, but the old carpet had a strong smell of cleaning chemicals making stuffiness even worse. We only stayed one night, but for a longer stay we would have definitely asked to move rooms - we both woke up feeling congested, puffed with what seemed like an allergic reaction. For the price, you would expect a higher standard, especially considering how quickly Gdańsk is developing and improving. If Qubus doesn’t invest in updates, it risks falling even further behind the competition.

Our room was very clean and well equipped with fridge, hairdryer, towels. For an inner city hotel it’s lovely and quaint. There’s a common room downstairs with access to tea, coffee, hot chocolate, microwave, fridge, board games and an X box available 24 hours a day. I was very impressed and my standards are high. There’s an iron and ironing board in the corridor on every level, as we were heading to a wedding in Gdansk and had flown in from London I was impressed with that as our wedding attire got creased in the case. The breakfast in the morning was really good, I would recommend.
