4 best hotels with a pool in Gdansk

Hotels with a pool in Gdansk appeal to travellers who want more than a location near the waterfront: they want a proper on-site swim, a place to unwind after sightseeing, and—at many properties—spa-style facilities that make relaxation effortless. A genuine “pool stay” is typically defined by an on-site swimming pool (often indoor), extended opening hours and guest comfort features such as towel service and a calm leisure zone rather than a cramped amenity.

For location, the city’s Old Town offers immediate access to iconic sights like Długi Targ (the Long Market) and Brama Zielona (the Green Gate), sitting between the historic centre and the Motława River. If you prefer a greener, quieter base, the Oliwa district is known for its cathedral complex and surrounding park atmosphere.

In practice, pool hotels suit both couples and families: couples enjoy the privacy of an indoor swim plus spa-style downtime, while families benefit from year-round water access when weather shifts. Business travellers also like pools because they provide a simple way to recharge between meetings in the historic core.

From refined luxury at Hilton Gdansk and Hotel Podewils in Gdansk to wellness-led options such as Hotel Grano Gdańsk Spa & Wellness, these bookable picks are well matched to a “swim-first” itinerary—whether you’re basing yourself in the centre or stepping out towards Oliwa’s calmer rhythm.
