THE ONE HOTEL
You can find grander and more luxurious hotels in Gdansk,but few are as well-located and character-full as Hotel Krolewski. Housed in an imposing 17th-century brick granary on Olowianka Island in the Motlawa River,it's a short stroll from the city's major attractions and enjoys a delightful waterfront locale. The 30 rooms are spacious and comfortable,and many have lovely river views. Seehotelkrolewski.pl
THE ONE MUSEUM
Given Gdansk was where World War II started,it's fitting that it should also have the conflict's definitive museum. Accessed via an arresting glass and concrete tower,the museum's 18 themed sections provide an exhaustive account of how the war started,where it was fought and its devastating impact. Among the striking exhibits and mock-ups are personal stories so tragic and harrowing,it's impossible not to be deeply moved. Seemuzeum1939.pl
THE ONE RESTAURANT
Located in the shadow of St Mary's Church,Gvara offers traditional Polish cuisine in an unexpectedly contemporary environment. Tuck into hearty fare such as rye bread with dripping,fried herring with sauerkraut and wild boar with dumplings.The staff are refreshingly affable staff (not always the case in Poland) and the restaurant often has live music in the evenings.

THE ONE CULTURAL CENTRE
You'd think Gdansk would be content with having one world-class attraction in the World War II museum,but the European Solidarity Centre is equally impressive. Located on the site of the former Gdansk shipyard,it charts the extraordinary journey of Lech Walesa,a shipyard electrician who went on to lead the country's first trade union,Solidarity,which eventually toppled Poland's communist rule. In 1990,he became Poland's first democratically elected president. Seeecs.gda.pl
