Gdansk is one of the most festive cities in Poland. Multiple areas are decorated with Christmas lights, trees and baubles. The historic centre is Long Market, a pedestrian-only street lined with beautiful Hanseatic-era buildings.
Hotels near Gdansk Christmas Market
I suggest staying close to Long Market or Granary Island, where you’ll have everything at your doorstep. The Christmas market is located at Targ Węglowy.
Top Pick
Puro Gdansk Stare MiastoAddress: Stągiewna 26, Gdańsk, Poland
The Puro hotels are very popular boutique hotels in Poland and deservedly so. They are modern, clean, beautifully designed and the staff are welcoming and helpful. The Puro Gdansk is located on Granary Island, known as Wyspa Spichrzów in Polish. This small island is connected via a historic bridge to Long Market and the old town. The hotel is steps from the Christmas Ferris wheel and a 10-minute walk along Long Market to Gdansk Christmas market at Targ Węglowy.

These apartments are also directly on Long Market. You can choose a one or two-bedroom apartment with room for up to 6 guests.
