DoubleTree opens in Poland

DoubleTree by Hilton has announced the opening of a new property in Wroclaw, in the OVO Wroclaw complex.

Located in 2016’s European Capital of Culture, the landmark edifice spearheads a revolution in urban Polish design and boasts 189 guestrooms and suites, including a Presidential suite with views of Slowacki Park. The six-storey property is placed in Wroclaw’s town centre on Podwale Street, nearby to the Main Square.

Envisioned by GSARCH-Gottesman Szmelcman, the property’s rounded exterior seamlessly blends curved lines with a stylish minimalism that typifies the interior spaces.

Dianna Vaughan, Senior Vice President and Global Head, DoubleTree by Hilton & Curio – A Collection by Hilton, comments: “The prime location and high quality design makes the hotel a top choice for travellers in west Poland’s largest city.”

The hotel features the atmospheric OVO bar and restaurant, which offers a live cooking station and dishes built for sharing, with a DJ as the evening progresses. Elsewhere, a relaxed courtyard is also open to Wroclaw’s local residents, from breakfast until late.

Seven flexible function rooms are available to hold a casual business meeting, briefing or training session, while the visually striking hotel also offers a 317m2 ballroom with a height of up to 5.5m, divisible into three smaller areas. The hotel’s modern casino will open later this year.

Matthias Herd, general manager, DoubleTree by Hilton Wroclaw, says: “We look forward to welcoming guests to our hotel and delighting them with DoubleTree by Hilton’s kind and caring service. Wroclaw is rapidly becoming a tourist destination in its own right and demand is rising, so we are in an ideal location.”

“I am certain that the hotel’s range of facilities will cater to the needs of business and leisure travellers alike and will provide a new, fresh level of hospitality to this vibrant city.”

The upscale hotel joins three DoubleTree by Hilton properties in Poland and over 70 DoubleTree by Hilton properties open across Europe.
