Cukrownia Znin

We came for a weekend. The hotel was fully booked. The facility is huge and looks a tad unfinished. Some buildings still need renovation. The hotel is located in an old sugar factory. Fans of industrial style will be delighted. And while in general everything looks good and coherently, the rooms are unfortunately disappointing - uncomfortable and ugly. It is unbelievable but one girl on reception desk in Fabryka 1 wasn’t nice and didn’t care and the other one on Fabryka 2 was super nice and helpful. Food is good but expensive. The service leaves much to be desired. Waitress in Turbinownia are really nice and carrying and helpfull. On the contrary, in the bar next to the reception in Fabryka 2 - chaos and lack of organization reign there. The girls have no idea about customer service, it is a mess and it takes half an hour to accept the order. In the end coffee is cold when it’s served. Cleaning ladies are blind or unable to read because they cannot see “do not disturbed” signes and enter the room. There is a lot of work to be done there.

I like going back there. Well-developed place, interesting arrangement. The service is nice and helpful. A small exercise room, swimming pool, playground, and a cinema are available. Several restaurants offering good food, a cafe and a pub offering beer from its own vats.

WYJAZD LIPIEC 2023 Pomysł na hotel w fabryce jest super. Obsługa mega. Ale: szlafroki są dodatkowo płatne po 20 zł- trzeba o nie poprosić na recepcji głównej. Basen jest w osobnym budynku. Można co prawda do niego przejść przez wysoko zawieszony korytarz, ale latem jest w nim po prostu sauna. A jest dość długi. Hotel ma kilka restauracji, ale każda jest czynna do 21. Lobby bar po 22:30 się zamyka i nie ma w nim przekąsek już po 21. W pokojach nie ma lodówek. W basenie w brodziku dla dzieci woda mogłaby być trochę cieplejsza, ale podobno to kwestia jakiejś pompy, która nie do końca ogarnia. Fajna sala zabaw dla dzieci. Parking dla gości jest bezpłatny, dla pozostałych 2 zł za godzinę. Ogólnie moim zdaniem spoko, ale te rzeczy wpływają na ogólny poziom zadowolenia.

Crowds of hysterically enthusiastic Germans running around and taking pictures as they have never been outside their villages, salespeople from German and Austrian companies with their Russian peers (as those companies still deal with Russia) that have organized incentive meetings here. Crowds of corpo "ladies" in high heels on the beach from the same meetings excited that they finally left their families and they are ready for everything with their male colleaugues. This place is full of such people and completely does not have any relaxing vibe. You can feel as in the office building full of officially dressed people, serious convesations, official meetings and tense atmosphere. Except for this you can find here the pier and pavements completety covered with feces (please see my video), rooms missing basic amenities (no fridge even in the expensive rooms, completely nothing like basic bathroom amenities offered by normal hotels; no handkerchiefs, no shampoo, just little bit of shower gel but of course less than half of a dispenser), dirty towels with holes, stained floors (see pics), empty plates in the breakfast buffet more than one hour before it finishes, bed covered as on the pictures, dirty windows. No iron in the room. Small rooms. In some places this complex looks as it was falling apart- water leaks through the walls (see video). Reception staff rude. Impossible to reach them by phone- they rarely pick up the external calls. Everybody is angry to work here. Restaurant Sacharoza open till 21:00 (as they say on Monday June 12) however on Tuesday June 13 at 20:33 waitress says that only take away is possible. After placing and order she is running to the kitchen shouting "relax Guys, it is just take away". Funny thing that for this take away they agree to give us glass, cooler with ice cubes but refused to serve us on plates. What is the difference? Glass- yes, plates- no. Why they say that only take away is possible half an hour before the closure on Tuesday 13? As a result we had a few meals served in the boxes, and the wine and drinks in glasses, in the terrace and they told us to "leave them anywhere" when we finish. On Wednesday noon (June 14) I went to see the beach bar but staff was busy with gossiping and laughing aloud. Really cannot understand the fascination of this overpriced place that offers really poor standard and bad customer service. Everything seems to be illogical here. One building named Administration and the other named Reception. Who could guess that Administration is in fact the restaurant whereas Reception is not. The same letters, different meaning. We only noticed Administration is the restaurant on the last day when we were passing by. There are leaflets everythere promoting the investments in the rooms "allowing up to 5% of income and as much as 50% of discount when booking your own room" 🙈😄 Cukrownia Żnin is packed with the gadgets impersonating the founder of the investment scheme with big note "Take me hom

This is a formerly sugar factory and is modified to a trendy hotel, and event location. Interesting setup of the rooms and the way to reach the rooms. Wherever you walk there is something interesting to see Good entertainment Nice bars Great meeting and presentation rooms Close to the city

The hotel is located in an old sugar factory in Znin. The interiors of the hotel are industrial-themed and rooms seem to follow the Scandi 60s-70s minimalism style. The hotel is big (or even bigger) so even when full of guests it doesn't feel crowded. The best features of the hotel seem to be a nice swimming pool area, kids room, cinema. All of those are nicely furnished and spacious. There's also a private beach area with water equipment and a gym area with a very long slide (28m long). The food in restaurants and breakfast buffet is of good quality and above-average priced. The biggest issue of the hotel is the lack of information where everything is located and what the hotel offers. There are no folders, very few maps (standing, not printed) and few direction signs. There's no parking in front or near the reception area. Also the staff, though polite, seemed a bit lost (like it was their second day on the job) and not overly helpful. In general it's a place with great potential, but a lot of work needs to be done to let visitors fully enjoy their stay and not to feel overcharged. 

A truly STUNNIG place! The refurbished and modernised interiors are breathtaking. Congrats to the owners and the team of designers for giving second life to the place. The precision and the attention to detail is flawless! We have wholeheartedly enjoyed the stay!
