Antares Hotel

Very Good
Traveller Type: family with young children
  : we were in gdynia for open'er festival and antares hotel was a comfortable choice. we arrived late (around midnight) to the train station and did not need to wait a lot to take a bus to the hotel. there is a bus stop just down the street from the hotel where several bus lines took us to the main station, from there we took the festival buses. the hotel is located in a quiet location and is not in walking distance to the city center or the beach, but both are easily accessible by bus. there are several supermarkets close by and the amenities in the room such as the minibar, kettle, glasses etc. were adequate for our stay. the room and the bathroom were not cramped, there were adequate pillows and towels, and water pressure was fine. bottled water (still or sparkling) was provided every day during our stay, which was very nice. the breakfast did not have a huge variety but had all that we needed: 3+ cheeses, fresh fruits and vegetables, cold cut meats, scrambled eggs, grilled mushrooms (delicious!) and veggies, juices, desserts, several breads. i did not need it but noticed there weren't a lot of cereals or jams for those who prefer. also, vegan options were very limited. we also used the indoor pool, which was tiny but clean. pool towels were also provided free of charge in the locker rooms of the pool. the staff were very attentive and polite before and during our stay, and we received a warm welcome.overall this is a very good value hotel that we enjoyed.
  : the room could be cleaned more often than once every 3 days. although i wouldn't call the room dirty, a more detailed cleaning was certainly necessary, as there were dusty reading glasses on the floor behind the bedside table that belonged to who knows which guest before us. i found it rather easily by accident and if that went unnoticed by the cleaning staff, god knows what else also did. we also used the laundry services and even though it was a fine service, we thought it was a bit overpriced, but of course this is a subjective comment. if you want to go to the beach every day to swim, this hotel might not be the best option, but we also tried it and it wasn't so bad. the beach was pleasant but we couldn't have taken the bus in our wet swimsuits (the journey takes 10 minutes, but you would have to walk for 15-20 minutes to the bus station, and even in the middle of summer gdynia was cool), so keep that in mind and make sure to change at the beach (there are public open showers and very basic changing rooms at the beach). finally, if you have plenty of luggage maybe it would be a better idea to book a taxi to and from the main train station because there are many stairs to take between the bus stop and the train station.
