It’s worth coming here even if only for a while to bask in the sunlight and breathe in the precious iodine from the sea breeze. The beach is surrounded by many fish restaurants, with a long wooden pier stretching out into the sea. It is ideal for walking. 1200 Set your watch at the Lighthouse in Nowy Port The Time Sphere is lowered from the mast at the top of the historic brick lighthouse at 12:00, 14:00, 16:00 and 18:00 sharp. It used to serve ship masters to regulate their navigation instruments. Today it’s just a tourist attraction, but it’s well worth visiting; what is more, the open gallery at the top provides a splendid view of the mouth of the River Vistula and Westerplatte. 1300 Take a ride on the F5 water tram to Westerplatte and Wisłoujście Fortress Nowy Port and the environs of the old mouth of the Vistula at the Bay of Gdańsk have many attractions.

  • UBM Celebrates Spectacular Opening of the Holiday Inn in Gdansk
    PRESS RELEASE UBM celebrates spectacular opening of the Holiday Inn in Gdansk Vienna, 27 June 2019 – The Holiday Inn Gdansk City Centre, a prestigious project realised by UBM Development, was successfully opened on 26 June. UBM celebrated together with the operator IHG and the new owner Union Investment as well as around 150 distinguished guests, including Danzig‘s Mayor Aleksandra Dulkiewicz and the former Polish President Lech Walesa. “LET IT FLOW“ – Under this motto, the hotel opened its doors for guests on Wednesday. The traditional opening in the form of a symbolic transfer of keys from Thomas G. Winkler, CEO of UBM Development, to General Manager Magdalena Suliga was followed by an extraordinary programme with numerous live acts, among others in the spectacular sky bar with a view across the entire city. The Holiday Inn Gdansk City Centre was realised in a construction period of only two years: It is located on the historic Granary Island in Gdansk and characterised by unmistakable architecture which combines contemporary with history. “The Holiday Inn Gdansk is the 53rd hotel developed by UBM, and further enhances our position as the leading hotel developer in Europe“, commented Thomas G. Winkler on the opening of this successful project. UBM‘s design department was responsible for the entire interior design – the “FLOW“ motto covers the entire building from the selection of materials and colours to the furniture, lighting and fittings. UBM will also lease the hotel, which will be operated under the Holiday Inn brand by InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG). The Holiday Inn Gdansk City Centre, which has 240 rooms and five conference facilities, was sold to Union Investment Real Estate in the form of a forward deal one and a half years before completion.
