Haffner M-3, ul. Haffnera 59, tel. (+48) 58 550 99
99, www.hotelhaffner.pl. Impeccable rooms come with
rich green colours and dark woods, as well as extras such
as personally-controlled air-conditioning, dataports and
bathtubs. Suites include cosmetics, dressing gowns and
two telephone lines. Spa and swimming pool are also available,
and the hotel can organize weekends in association

Hotel Opera “Antiaging & SPA” L-3, ul. Moniuszki
10, tel. (+48) 58 555 56 00, www.hotelopera.
pl. A luxurious hotel hidden away in a tree-lined valley
a short walk from the centre. Rooms are individually
designed, with the highlight being the suite that features
wood-panelling and corner spa tub. Q23 rooms
(22 singles, 21 doubles, 1 apartment). TYHA

NEW
Mera Hotel & Spa M-6, ul. Bitwy Pod Płowcami
59, tel. (+48) 58 778 93 20, www.meraspahotel.
pl. An excellent addition (opening May 17) to the accommodation
options in Sopot. The Mera is a brand
new construction located right on the beach just
minutes walk from downtown Sopot in one direction
and the ERGO arena in the other. Rooms overlook the
Bay of Gdansk and are seconds away from the sandy
beach. Although you may be tempted not to leave the
hotel with the in-house pool and spa and an elevated
outdoor pool overlooking the beach. As you’d expect
with a new hotel all rooms and fittings are shiny and
new and are available as standards, family rooms
and intriguingly ‘Romantic’ rooms. Recommended.
Q145 rooms (124 singles, 16 doubles, 5 apartments).
PTHA6ULGKDCwW hhhh
Villa Baltica M-5, ul. Emilii Plater 1, tel. (+48)
58 555 28 00, www.villabaltica.com. The rooms err
on the small side, but come with the full compliment of
21st century fixtures, and pleasant cream and beige
colours. Bathrooms sparkle, the restaurant gets a
thumbs up and you find yourself approximately three
minutes from the beach; if there’s a detail they’ve
overlooked we can’t spot it. Q33 rooms (6 singles,
24 doubles, 3 apartments). PTYHA6UG
KDwW hhh
Villa Sedan M-4, ul. Pułaskiego 18-20, tel. (+48) 58
551 06 17, www.sedan.pl. Sedan provides super rooms
and service at affordable prices. Wooden floorboards,
floral patterns and net curtains create a warm, peaceful
atmosphere. If you want to splash out a bit extra then the
loft apartment represents remarkably good value. Q21
rooms (3 singles, 12 doubles, 2 suites, 4 apartments).
TYHAR6UGKW hh
Zhong Hua M-4, Al. Wojska Polskiego 1, tel.
(+48) 58 550 20 20, www.hotelchinski.pl. A little bit
chintzy and a lot cheesy, Zhong Hua makes up for both
with glorious sea views and even a stretch of private
beach for guests. The Oriental design is beautiful on
the outside and carries over to the rooms in a slightly
more clichéd fashion, with Buddha lamps and shower
curtains covered with Chinese characters. That said,
many rooms have direct access to the sea - - a major
plus for those who are all about location. Q49 rooms (37
singles, 37 doubles, 10 apartments, 2 Mandaryn suite).

Mid-range
Europa L-4, Al. Niepodległości 766, tel. (+48) 58 551
44 90, www.hotel-europa.com.pl. A middle-of-the-road
hotel that touts a design that could have been considered
modern fifteen years back. While lacking cutting edge - and
a lift - the Europa offers pleasant accommodation a short
walk from the station. Q32 rooms (30 singles, 27 doubles,
2 suites). TYHA6GDW hhh
Lalala Art Hotel L-5, ul. Rzemieślnicza 42, tel. (+48)
792 84 02 93, www.lalala.lu. You don’t get a mini-bar or TV,
but you will find a glowing pink reindeer dancing in the garden.
And if you think that sounds a little daft, then wait till you get
in-room. There’s eight to choose from, and each one has been
individually designed by team of handpicked nutters. Take
number 44 for instance, a nightmarish trip replete with red
antlers, stuffed crows and nightmare monsters painted onto
the walls. Then there’s wacko 38, a turquoise effort equipped
with a double bed salvaged from pre-war and a scary cat face
positioned next to some tap dancing shoes. Fabulous. Q8
rooms (8 singles, 8 doubles). THA6GKW
Villa Aqua M-2, ul. Zamkowa Góra 35, tel. (+48) 58
522 44 00, www.villaaqua.pl. A newish looking hotel right
next to the Aqua Park - so good news if that trip to the beach
has been rained off. Rooms might well be small and boxy
but all come with flatscreen TVs, wireless internet, modern
bathrooms and absolutely no problems with noise. As far as
good deals go, this one is better than most. Q53 rooms (53
singles, 49 doubles). TYHAR6UGKW hh
Villa Sentoza M-5, ul. Grunwaldzka 89, tel. (+48) 58
520 48 68, www.sentoza.pl. Decorated with sea blue carpets,
vanilla fittings and shiny plastics the lodgings look the
part, and come with flatscreen TVs, low-level balconies and
reception staff that could pass for models. The balconies are
generous, with some offering sea views, though at these prices
a mini-bar should come as standard. Q28 rooms (20 singles,
20 doubles, 8 apartments). TYHA6UGKDW
Willa Marea M-4, ul. Chrobrego 38 (entrance from ul.
Parkowa 40), tel. (+48) 58 555 84 80, www.marea.sopot.
pl. A small, friendly boutique hotel next to the sea with a good
choice of modern oatmeal and dark wood rooms, jolly staff,
free LAN internet connections and complimentary sweets in
the lobby. On the plus side, the people who work here will bend
over backwards to help you, but be warned that the rooms
higher up in the building come with windows in the roof. If you
want a view, be sure to choose your room carefully. Q18 rooms
(15 singles, 11 doubles, 2 apartments). THAR6UG
Apartments
Mała Anglia M-5, ul. Grunwaldzka 94, tel. (+48) 504
95 69 24, www.malaanglia.pl. A series of high-quality

Hostels
Central Hostel L-4, ul. Bohaterów Monte Cassino
15, tel. (+48) 530 85 87 17, www.hostelcentral.pl. A
new hostel bang in the middle of the Tri-city’s party central
meaning you’re only literally metres from all the key elements
for a successful stay - 24 hour shop, bar, nightclub and
MacDonalds. The hostel’s not bad either with a series of
dorms featuring bunks beds and lockers, free in-house wi-fi,
an internet cafe and even a couple of private rooms for those
looking for a little more privacy. Q11 rooms (3 doubles, 63
Dorm beds). TAGKW
Lunatic Hostel L-5, Al. Niepodległości 739/2, tel.
(+48) 58 718 42 64, www.lunatichostel.com. Don’t let
the strange name scare you off; this brand new hostel is bright,
clean and decorated in one of the most unique manners we’ve
ever seen. Each of the four rooms (which have from 4 to 10
beds in bunk formation) has a different theme, and we’re torn
between the Space Invaders room - - complete with a working
old-school Atari console! - - and the Hunting room, which
features the mounted heads of various stuffed animals. The
bathrooms are impeccably clean, and the kitchen/lounge
offers breakfast and a flatscreen TV for relaxing. The owner,
who can often found behind the decorative front desk, clearly
takes pride in his new establishment and we’re happy to say
it’s earned. Q4 rooms (28 Dorm beds). AGW
