Novotel Gdansk Marina

Very good location and comfortable...

Liked: Very good location, and the hotel is very nice for kids, it has a pool, and playing grounds, even an xbox (which was busy all the time)Good coffee, good space.
Disliked: There is not an evening bouffetThe pool and dressing rooms have a strange setup where women have to go through the men lockers, causing some awkward situations.Regarding the breakfast:The salads and the dressings are next to the juice machine, making it a little crowded.There is just scrambled eggs, but no fried or boiled.

Superb

Liked: The rooms were very big and nice. We had a wonderful oceanview. The staff was very nice as well.
Disliked: The room was very sandy when we arrived. Luckily they cleaned the room te next day.

From the moment we arrived...

Liked: It was perfectly set up for a family vacation

Good

Liked: The location is great, 3 minutes to the sea, 30 minutes walking to Sopot, and 20 minutes to the Gdansk Old Town by car. The breakfast was very good, a good choice of food, everyone will find what he/she like to eat.
Disliked: Even though we bought a 'standard' room, usually there are basic things like slippers for the room, but we didn't have them, and at the reception, they said I could buy them, but when I wanted to buy them, they said they don't have it.

Good provision for children but...

Liked: Located close to the beach, the superior room with a sea view (for which we had paid extra) was fine, as was the range of breakfast food items.
Disliked: Within our one week stay the room received little attention from cleaning staff other than to empty the bin and give the sink and shower a quick wipe. Towels and linens were not changed - we appreciate this is an eco drive and it did not bother us too much as the towels dried quickly, however we had to request replenishment of toilet roll, toiletries and coffee/tea supplies.We had a mixed reception from staff in the gym/pool area and were surprised that additional payment was required to use the exercise machines.

Superb

Liked: Great amenities and friendly staff. Beautiful and comfortable rooms - the Rituals bathroom products were a treat. The food in the restaurant was excellent and the cocktails delicious!
Disliked: Was expensive but you get what you pay for!

Exceptional

Liked: I highly recommend this hotel. Great location, well maintained. Restaurant in site. Clean. Walking distance to beach. Great place for a family stay. Delicious breakfast. Parking.
Disliked: One morning we had a hard time finding a table for breakfast. There was some kind of convention. I felt like there should have been tables reserved for hotel guests and or other facilities open to the convention guests. Once they finished eating they stood around talking in the breakfast area and it was difficult to get through etc.

Disappointing

Liked: The location was great.
Disliked: The room was dirty, floors dusty, and the sink was clogged. Housekeeping didn’t improve anything. Breakfast wasn’t included despite the high price. The pool is small and mostly occupied by training sessions. Very disappointed — would not recommend.

1min to beach and beach...

Liked: Everything great location service and gym/sauna
