Sofitel Grand Sopot

If you’re looking for a hotel with real soul, the Sofitel Grand Sopot has it in spades. Walking up to this Grand Old Lady, you can feel the history settle around you right away. She’s elegant, she’s storied, and she’s definitely earned a few character lines, and I mean that in the best way. The fun part is knowing she’s about to get a serious facelift, inside and out, and you can almost feel the anticipation.||What absolutely made the stay unforgettable was the staff. Everyone I met seemed genuinely proud to be part of the place, and it shows. I have to call out Lukas, who was just exceptional. He brings so much warmth and professionalism that you instantly feel welcome. If the hotel itself has heart, he’s part of the reason.||Being there feels like stepping into a little pocket of Sopot’s history. The building, the atmosphere, the details, it all draws you in.||There’s also a historical tour that isn’t widely advertised. If you’re lucky enough to catch it, especially if you love history, don’t miss it. The hotel has seen some extraordinary moments, including visits from figures connected to the lead-up to WWII. Standing in the same spaces gives the whole stay another layer of meaning.||As for what I didn’t like? Honestly, nothing. Any small imperfections felt like they belonged to the story of the place, not flaws.||If you appreciate history, character, and truly excellent service, this hotel really delivers.

A grand old hotel in a prime location right on the water. The property exudes historic charm, though the reception area and expansive hallways are in need of some attention — the carpet, for instance, is visibly buckled in several areas and detracts from the otherwise elegant atmosphere.||There’s a small bar just off the lobby leading into the grand dining room. We especially enjoyed relaxing with spritzes on the beautiful grounds that border the beach — a lovely setting for an afternoon break.||We arrived around noon, and reception kindly offered to notify us when our two rooms were ready, which she believed would be ahead of the standard check-in time. Unfortunately, we never received any update, and when we returned later, our keys were simply waiting on the counter.||We had booked Luxury Rooms (seaside view, two single beds combined as a king, no balcony). One room matched the representative photo from our confirmation, but the second was an attic-style room — quite possibly the least appealing room we’ve ever been offered. Thankfully, the staff quickly resolved the issue, upgrading us to a stunning oceanfront room and upgrading our traveling companion as well (also a perk - when available - of using our Travel Advisor).||There is a "strand" that parallels the ocean between the hotel and the beach, that was wonderful with restaurants scattered along the way in and around the various beach clubs. The charming Sopot downtown is also a short walk from the hotel, it was a great location for us.||The breakfast buffet was abundant and delicious, offering a wide variety of options. One disappointment, however, was the handling of the $100 credit per room we received through our Travel Advisor. At most hotels, this credit can be applied toward spa services, restaurant, bar, or even the final bill. At the Grand Hotel Sopot, it could only be used in the restaurant or bar — and all at once. Since breakfast was included, we didn’t dine in for lunch, and we preferred to explore local restaurants for dinner. Unfortunately, they had no way to debit the balance gradually (for example, with cocktails), so we ended up using the credit to purchase a $25 USD bottle of vodka for $200 USD — an unnecessarily restrictive policy that left a poor final impression.

This was our 4th stay in Sofitel Grand Sopot, and we had a great stay once again. The hotel is really beautiful and has timeless charm. Staff is very friendly and professional. Our room was very cozy. Breakfast is fabulous! Drinks and food at the restaurant and bar are really good. Spa is also very nice. Location at the beach is perfect. We will definitely come back!

The Grand Hotel is stunning and outside appearance is spectacular. ||Must be honest we did not stay here but we had a drink in the bar.||It’s nice but the stunning and amazing appearance of the outside does not carry through to the interior. ||It is nice and the view from the bar over the private beach is special. The corridors and stairway and lobby is nice but not the wow I expected. The bathroom was very nice but the entrance door opened out on to the corridor and had the look of a steel door on a ferry.||I was expecting ultimate luxury but did not feel it. The private beach, spa and private parking give it five star status.

Amazing hotel with a lot of history. I would absolutely recommend you to ask for a guided tour of some of the suites - they have been visitet some of historys most famous politicians and celebrities. Absolutely amazing tour. Would love to come back!

Perfect location. The beach is gorgeous. Right on the walking path. Close to the piers and restaurants. We checked in while they were filming and we weren't able to use most of the entrances nor the garden. They were limiting the ability to walk on the beach. We received macaroons for the inconvenience but a few cookies when you can't use part of the amenities on your vacation wasn't really making up for anything. It would have been nice to have advance notice so we could decide if we wanted the impact. The hotel is also dated. It is obviously older and every though it is clean, it just looks older. The staff are really friendly. The beds were comfortable in the rooms and our view was nice. The pool, sauna and steam rooms were nice. The lobby bar is big. Dated furniture but nice liquor selection and view.

We had an absolutely fantastic 3-night stay at the Sofitel Grand Sopot. The rooms are beautiful, spacious, and well-furnished, combining classic charm with modern comfort. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful—truly focused on delivering a premium guest experience. The hotel is also thoughtfully designed for families. There’s a kids’ playroom that's perfect for rainy days or evenings, and the pool area offers something for all ages. The on-site restaurant is outstanding, with top-quality food and attentive service. I can’t say enough good things about this place—it exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend!

Sofitel Grand Sopot is a beautiful hotel that looks like a mansion (it used to be a casino). The hotel has a private beach, a beautiful park and a wellness area. Upon arrival at the hotel, our rooms were ready. The rooms were cozy and clean. Don't forget to take advantage of one of the special evening services - a salt or bubble bath (free of charge). We also visited the wellness area during our stay. There is a swimming pool, a Finnish sauna, a steam sauna and relaxing loungers. We spent the next day on the hotel's private beach, where we had comfortable beach beds and loungers. We booked our stay with breakfast, which was served at the Grand Blue restaurant, which overlooks the beach and the sea. The breakfast was very tasty and in addition to the buffet tables, a delicious menu was available too. Therefore, we rate the breakfast as above standard. Later, we had dinner at this restaurant (you can read more about the Grand Blue restaurant in our next review). In addition to the Grand Blue restaurant, the hotel also has Le Bar, where we enjoyed dinner the next day (you can read more about Le Bar in our next review). The hotel is furnished with older furniture, which adds to its special atmosphere and you can find Vogue magazines everywhere. If you are planning to visit Sopot, we definitely recommend this hotel👌🏻
