About hotel

The hospitality traditions of Focus Hotel Premium pod Orłem date back to the early 19th century. At that time, a tavern was built along the route leading to Gdańsk. In its present shape, the hotel has existed since 1896. It was built by Emil Bernhard, to a design by Bydgoszcz architect Józef Święcicki. The first name of the hotel was " Zum Adler", and the interior of the restaurant was modeled on solutions used in Germany. In 1919, the hotel was bought for 1.25 M German marks jointly by landowner and businessman Stefan Majewicz, and Władysław and Józef Kosicki. The German eagle perched on top of the building was replaced by the Polish one.

At the beginning of 1945, the hotel returned to the Majewicz family, but soon it was nationalized and in 1952 it was donated to the state-owned Orbis Tourist Enterprise, which managed it until 1993. The hotel continued hosting many celebrities (including musicians and composers Artur Rubinstein and Krzysztof Penderecki, as well as actors Daniel Olbrychski and Jeremi Przybora) and provided a tiny window to the outside world while Poland was practically isolated from the West.

The hotel is a great place to organize an unforgettable wedding reception or special event. Beautiful, historic interiors and a unique menu inspired by the pre-war period will turn the event into an experience.

At the hotel you can relax playing a game of billiards in the club room.
