Charming hotel in a renovated granary building on Granary Island. Features exposed brick walls, modern amenities, and waterfront views in the heart of historic Gdansk.
Hotel Gdansk Boutique occupies a converted 17th-century granary on Granary Island (Wyspa Spichrzów), a historic grain-storage island on the Motława river in central Gdansk. The island sits immediately across the water from the Długie Pobrzeże waterfront promenade and is connected to it by footbridges, placing the hotel within a 5-minute walk of the Long Market (Długi Targ), St. Mary's Church, the Golden Gate, and Gdansk's primary historic core. The building's exposed brick facades, original vaulted ceilings, and heavy timber beams have been preserved and incorporated into the hotel's interior design alongside contemporary furnishings and modern technical infrastructure, producing a character that generic new-build hotels cannot replicate.
Rooms span Standard, Superior, and Suite categories across several floors of the granary structure. Interiors combine raw brick walls with understated design-conscious furnishing — linen textiles, wooden floors, and a restrained neutral palette that lets the architecture take precedence. Superior and Suite rooms offer Motława river or Granary Island courtyard views. Bathrooms feature modern walk-in showers and quality fixtures.
The hotel restaurant serves Polish cuisine with a contemporary approach, with terrace seating overlooking the Motława waterfront during the summer season. A spa on the lower floors includes a sauna, steam room, and treatment facilities. Bike rental is available at reception; the flat terrain along the Motława waterfront makes cycling a practical way to reach Oliwa Cathedral (9km north) or the Baltic beaches at Brzeźno. Gdansk Główny railway station is approximately 1.3 kilometres away, giving access to the SKM commuter rail that connects Sopot (20 minutes) and Gdynia (40 minutes) for Tri-City day trips.

Tips for visiting
- Request a river-view Superior room; Standard rooms face the courtyard and receive less natural light on lower floors.
- Cross the Motława footbridge to the main waterfront and turn left for the Fish Market; turn right for St. Mary's Church and the Long Market.
- Book a table at the hotel restaurant terrace when checking in — it fills quickly on warm summer evenings.
- Granary Island is substantially quieter than the main waterfront strip at night, making it more restful while remaining a short walk from the historic centre.
