DEO PLAZA Premium Suites, Riverside & Radisson SPA by Downtown Apartments

DEO PLAZA Premium Suites, Riverside & Radisson SPA by Downtown Apartments Overview

DEO PLAZA Premium Suites, Riverside & Radisson SPA by Downtown Apartments sits right on Chmielna, so if you’re walking from the Old Town, you’ll see it as you pass the St. Mary’s Church and the bustling market street (Karolinka). The first thing that hits you is the big, friendly check‑in desk—no long queues, just a quick scan of your ID and a warm smile. The staff actually remember what you’re after; one of them offered a free welcome drink that was a perfect blend of local coffee and a splash of vodka, which honestly felt like a little Gdańsk greeting.

Your room was a clean, airy space with a slick, modern design that didn’t feel too sterile. The ensuite had a deep soaking tub that was a game‑changer after a day of exploring the Motława River promenade. The view from the balcony? Honestly, it was stunning: a slow‑moving river, a few boats, and the city lights reflecting on the water—especially striking at dusk. The linens were buttery soft, and the pillows were the right amount of fluff, not too firm. I appreciated the small touches: a local map with the best hidden cafés in the Łękno district, a bottle of chilled water, and a Bluetooth speaker that let me stream my playlist through the entire room. The bathroom also had a small, but pretty, rain shower—makes you feel like you’re somewhere fancy without the usual pretentiousness.

Parking was a breeze, with a dedicated lot right under the building—just a short walk from the front entrance, no hidden fees. I parked my car in the evening when the city quieted down, and the noise from the nearby Stróże Street was almost non‑existent. By morning, the city was already awake: the tram rattles, a few vendors calling out their fresh pierogi, and the distant hum of traffic that only adds to the authentic Gdańsk vibe. The spa was a real find—an oasis with a sauna, steam room, and a small pool. I spent an hour there right after a lunch in the hotel’s restaurant, which serves pierogi and a surprisingly good goulash that made me forget I’d been on a diet. The staff were friendly, but not intrusive, letting me unwind without feeling like I was on a corporate retreat.

The surrounding area is a blend of historic charm and modern life. Walking across the bridge to the Motława River, you’ll find the old wooden docks and a quaint little bookshop that sells local literature. If you’re craving a night out, head to the street called Rękowo—there’s a dive bar that’s surprisingly clean and a club that plays old disco tracks. For a quieter experience, drop into the park near the St. Mary’s Church and listen to the church bells—an experience I’ve found missing in many other cities. The hotel’s location is close enough to the Old Town that you can hop on a tram or a bike, but far enough to not be overwhelmed by the tourist crowds when you’re ready for some peace.

All in all, DEO PLAZA Premium Suites, Riverside & Radisson SPA by Downtown Apartments offers a solid mix of comfort and local flavor. The staff are helpful, the rooms are clean and well‑equipped, and the spa is a nice touch that doesn’t feel over‑the‑top. The noise level is moderate; you get the city’s heartbeat without it becoming a constant buzz. Parking is convenient, the check‑in process is swift, and you’ll be in the heart of Gdańsk’s historic and modern sides. If you’re looking for a place that feels like a home base while still letting you dive into the city’s soul, this is the spot for you. DEO PLAZA Premium Suites, Riverside & Radisson SPA by Downtown Apartments manages to keep that balance in a way that feels genuine and not like a typical marketing pitch.

Exploring Gdansk offers visitors an unforgettable journey through Poland’s maritime heart, from its magnificent Gothic churches to its amber workshops and legendary shipyards where Solidarity was born.

Reviews of DEO PLAZA Premium Suites, Riverside & Radisson SPA by Downtown Apartments

• Edi from Estonia – 1 June 2025 (10/10)

  The location was better than I had thought of. The glazed balcony and the views from there to the bridge and the old town gate were fantastic. The bed was really comfortable.
  
  What could be improved: The wifi wasn't working – you could access it, but there was no internet. That was still only a minor letdown during our stay.

  A wonderful apartment in prime location, very spacious and immaculately clean, views over river were spectacular. Apartment was lovely and warm with great amenities. Considering we were very central, it was very quiet. Beds were very comfortable. Check in and out was easy, the office staff keep your bags until apartment is ready and until you leave resort. Very good value. They very kindly charged my phone too!! Would highly recommend

• Moneerah from Saudi Arabia – 15 May 2025 (8/10)

  Firstly the location is great as the attractions were like 15 min walk. The view on the river was lovely we enjoyed morning breakfast and afternoon teas on the terrace. The sofa bed was comfortable.
  
  What could be improved: The heating/cooling system worked perfectly, but it might take some time to have a noticeable effect! We would’ve appreciated having slippers and dental kit.
