Poznan In Your Pocket
While Poznań is not the first city on the traveller's itinerary, it does have a habit of surprising all who end up here. Crowded with churches and cobbles and colourful burgher houses, the old town is a collage of architectural styles and stuffed with delicate looking churches and esoteric museums. A major cultural and economic centre, it’s during this period when the city earns its reputation as a city of trade fairs. Its success as a fair centre stems partly from its location on a road that starts in Paris, ends in Moscow, and hits all the major cities in between. If you’re arriving during a trade fair then we sincerely hope you’ve booked your hotel in advance, else start getting used to sleeping under park benches.
But it’s not all business. Over 60,000 people, some 10% of the population, purport to study at some institute or another, lending a defiantly young and vibrant atmosphere to the streets. Whether you’re here for business or leisure, you’ll find everything you need to the enjoy this city whether it be bars, clubs, restaurants or museums.
OUR Poznan HIGHLIGHTS
-
We’re big fans of Bernardino, a super spot that makes use of a clean and crisp design and lots of light, bright colours. The street level setting is great for pedestrian watching, while the pizza is among the best you’ll find in Poznan.

Just steps away from the Trade Fair, though this is more than the business travellers choice. The Sheraton Poznan is the number one hotel in town, with a chic modern style that covers every inch of the hotel.
