Dom Królów

Gdańsk & Pomerania


Within the luxury Hotel Elbląg, the town's finest restaurant is overseen by chef Jacek Faltyn who cooks up Polish favourites as well as Argentine steak, Italian pastas and Indian curries to please the hotel's international business clientele. There's an expansive wine list and the inoffensive interior is Elbląg's most contemporary, all metal, greys and blacks with strategic splashes of colour.
