he Grand Royal is conveniently located off the main Berlin to Warsaw road. You pay for parking behind a security barrier. Check in was convenient and most staff speak English. The room was comfortable with a good shower. I had a beer in the bar whilst doing some work but despite his best efforts the barman could not find BBC or Sky News, I watched through my phone instead, a good mobile signal then.
I used the pool, jacuzzi and sauna for which a robe is provided, as is a towel and lockers. There are massage and treatments available but may need to be booked in advance.
I like to eat local food while travelling and enjoyed a Winter Salad starter and Roast Duck Poznian style. With a glass of wine this came to £17.50
Breakfast was the usual mix of continental with scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon available. Pancakes and Scone Drops were a nice touch with Canadian Maple Syrup.
I enjoyed my stay and will return when passing, this was my fifth trip through Poland in two months.
