Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Hilton Gdańsk

With 150 high-comfort rooms (the beds are heavenly!), Gdańsk Hilton is rather cozy and not too overwhelming—and yet they manage to make each guest feel like a VIP. Super-friendly, smiling staff and attention to detail are this Hotel's signature. The location is excellent, in the Old Town, on the bank of the Motława—try to get a room overlooking the water, if you can. In the morning, enjoy the full-spread breakfast, but more importantly, do not miss the visit at the in-house Mercato restaurant for lunch or dinner. Mercato is the winner of numerous, well-deserved awards, and it is most certainly one of the best restaurants in town. They serve "slow food" based on local ingredients, in often surprising but always delightful compositions. The tasting menu is definitely worth a try, each delicious course perfectly matched with a glass of serious wine or spirit to complement it. In the evening, High 5 Terrace Bar offers cocktails, snacks, and night views over the city.
