"A seaside town in northern Poland might not be the first place you’d look for a storybook castle. But Zamek Łeba’s off-the-beaten-path location, tucked between the shoreline of the blue Baltic Sea and the shifting dunes of Słowiński National Park, is part of what makes it magical. The castle dates back to the 1900s, and functioned as a wellness retreat for decades before it became a luxury hotel. There’s still an unmistakably old-world air to the place, and many details feel charmingly redolent of the past: an elevator was never installed, bathrooms have vintage-looking tubs instead of modern walk-in showers, and Polish classics like smoked sturgeon and red borscht are served in the restaurant." - Tablet Hotels
