Artus Hotel

Artus Hotel is a three-star hotel at ul. Piwna 36/39 in the Main Town of Gdańsk, Poland. Piwna (Beer Street) is one of the historic streets of the Main Town, lined with narrow merchant houses and located near St Mary's Church, the largest brick church in the world by area. The Long Market, the Crane and the Motława waterfront are within a short walk, and Gdańsk Główny railway station is reachable by tram or a modest walk. The area was rebuilt after the destruction of 1945, and the streets keep their characteristic pavement terraces and decorated doorways. The hotel is a mid-range property ($$), with Double Rooms and Twin Rooms listed. A restaurant and wifi are included among the amenities, and breakfast and evening meals can be taken on site, while many other restaurants serving Polish and international cuisine are within a few minutes' walk. A pool, spa or fitness centre is not listed, so the stay is best suited to travellers who spend their days sightseeing and wish to keep costs down. The service character is that of a modest, practical city hotel, with reception staff able to provide city maps, arrange taxis and suggest day trips to Sopot, Gdynia or the castle at Malbork. Because of its position on a historic street, noise levels vary depending on the room's orientation and the season; light sleepers may want to request a quieter side. Rooms are simple but adequate for short stays, and the hotel offers one of the more affordable ways to stay in the heart of the Main Town. Visitors arriving by car should confirm parking arrangements in advance, since traffic restrictions apply in the centre. The hotel suits couples, solo travellers and small groups seeking a central base.
