Occupying one of Elbląg’s old-new reconstructions, this design hotel is a stylish place to sleep after a trip on the canal. Room decor unites cream leather, dark wood and flurries of white punctuated with exclamations of colour, and the dominance of light tones makes some rooms feel bigger than they are. Buffet breakfast is taken in the smart cellar restaurant.
