Altstadt by Little Heaven Overview

Altstadt by Little Heaven is tucked into ul. Tartaczna 3, right on the edge of Gdańsk’s Old Town, so when I first stepped out of the tram I was already hearing the distant clink of glasses from the fish market – the kind of sound that says you’re in the heart of the city. The front desk was surprisingly small but efficient; the receptionist, a young woman with a warm smile, had all the check‑in papers ready, so I was in my room before the third tram even turned the corner. Parking is a bit of a hassle – the nearest street parking is a block away and tends to fill up by noon, but there’s a small paid underground lot a few steps out that’s usually free on weekends. I ended up using a scooter rental right next door; the city’s compact layout makes it a breeze to hop around. Honestly, the vibe was instantly European – cobblestones under my shoes, a faint perfume of baking bread wafting from a nearby bakery, and the low hum of people chatting in Polish. The building itself has a charming early‑20th‑century façade that looks like it could be straight out of a postcard, but the interior feels fresh, with a mix of classic and modern touches. I loved the little balcony on my floor; the view of the Gdańsk marina at dusk is something you just have to see to believe.

When I opened the door to my room, I was pleasantly surprised by the space. It’s a 4‑star property, so the room is larger than you’d expect for a city hotel, with a king‑size bed that feels like you’re sleeping on a cloud – the sheets are crisp, the pillow options are generous, and the mattress has that perfect medium‑firm feel. The bathroom is modern, with a walk‑in rain shower that actually delivers a decent water pressure, something that can be hit or miss in older hotels. I did notice a faint damp smell near the window, probably from the older plaster behind the tiles, but it was quickly masked by the fresh linen scent. The room’s noise level is usually low; you can hear the city’s heartbeat, but the walls do a decent job of keeping out the street chatter. The minibar had a handful of local craft beers, which was a nice touch – a nod to the local craft scene. Check‑in was quick, but they did give you a small guidebook about the nearest cafés and a QR code for a free tram ticket, which was handy. The Wi‑Fi was solid, though I had to type in a slightly complicated password the first time, which was a bit annoying.

What really made my stay memorable, beyond the comfortable room, was the neighborhood. A stroll down ul. Gdańska takes you past the historic Old Town, where you can pick up a freshly baked pierogi from a stall that’s been around since the 1800s (the owner is a friendly old lady who tells you the best way to eat them). A few blocks away, there’s a small park where locals gather in the evenings for live jazz – I caught a band playing while the sunset painted the sky in hues of orange and pink. If you’re a foodie, the area is a goldmine: there’s a tiny seafood shack on the pier that serves the freshest oysters, and a cozy bistro on ul. Cynamonowa that offers a modern take on traditional Polish pierogi. For nightlife, head to the bars on Jagiellońska; they’re a bit louder at 11 PM, but

Reviews of Altstadt by Little Heaven

  • Empacyk from Poland – 3 June 2025 (9/10)

    W połowie drogi między Dworcem PKP a Starym Miastem. W pełni wyposażony apartament, z wszystkim czego potrzeba do codziennego funkcjonowania. Samodzielny check-in, z instrukcją i kluczami w skrytce przy drzwiach. Poza weekendem dostaliśmy zgodę na wcześniejsze wejście do obiektu. Apartament na 4 piętrze (jest winda, a na klatce schodowej piękna fototapeta), z widokiem na sąsiednie budynki. W aneksie kuchennym można nawet gotować obiady (jeśli ktoś ma ochotę) – jest lodówka, płyta kuchenna, piekarnik, zmywarka, czajnik i ekspres przelewowy. W łazience zestaw ręczników, minikosmetyków i ukryta pralka. W salonie TV, ale nie korzystaliśmy. W sypialni duża szafka i wieszak na garderobę. Trzeba uważać na głowę przy skosach 🙂
    Do Dworca PKP 800m
    Do fontanny Neptuna 900m
    Do Biedronki 350m

    What could be improved: Niektóre elementy wymagają poprawy lub wymiany, ale to wynika z naturalnego użytkowania. Mój pedantyzm i profesjonalizm cierpiał, gdy korzystał z ruszającego się kranu w łazience, przełamanego i cieknącego węża od słuchawki prysznicowej czy z niewyregulowanych i niewypoziomowanych drzwi, które non stop się otwierały. Ale to wszystko to takie drobne rzeczy, które można naprawić w godzinkę.

  • Güngör from Turkey – 30 May 2025 (8/10)

    Temiz ve şehir merkezine çok yakın.

  • Tatjana from Lithuania – 29 May 2025 (8/10)

    It was enough space for two, it’s was very close to old town. In apartament we find everything what was need it. We had a good communication with apartment mate.

    What could be improved: We don’t have it a big cause at all only small on bathroom, hut in general the place a really nice.

  • Magdalena from United Kingdom – 12 May 2025 (8/10)

  • Agnieszka from Poland – 10 May 2025 (8/10)

    Wszystko było czyste i schludne, na miejscu była parasolka, kostki do zmywarki, płyn do mycia, gąbka do mycia, ściereczki itd. Super:) lokalizacja top, zasłony są ciemne więc światło nie budzi

    What could be improved: Jedynie mała poprawka na kran w łazience ze się rusza, ale to mały drobiazg

  • Iain from Poland – 20 April 2025 (8/10)

    Lot’s of space

    What could be improved: No WiFi. The passwords provided by the property didn’t work. The owner (not consultant) must fix this.

  • Kamil from Poland – 2 April 2025 (9/10)

  • Oliwia from Poland – 12 February 2025 (8/10)

  • Roma from Ukraine – 30 January 2025 (8/10)

  • Natalia from Poland – 30 December 2024 (6/10)

    Oceniam mieszkanie na ulicy Panieńskiej, ponieważ booking podał w aplikacji błędne dane adresowe wynajmowanego mieszkania.
    Mieszkanie ładne, czyste, bardzo dobrze skomunikowane, blisko do ścisłego centrum miasta, plusem jest możliwość zarezerwowania miejsca parkingowego. Mieszkanie zaopatrzone w płyn do naczyń, gąbka do naczyń, kawa, herbata, cukier to na pewno na plus.

    What could be improved: – 4 saszetki płynu do kąpieli dla 3 osób na 4 dni to chyba trochę mało, polecam zabrać swój szampon i mydło bo to co zapewnia właściciel to zdecydowanie za mało
    – ogromny minus za kompletnie bez sensowne rozwiązanie dotyczące pilota do garażu – przyjechałam z małymi dziećmi i musiałam je zostawić w samochodzie zaparkowanym na strefie żeby w pierwszej kolejności udać się do mieszkania po pilota – który na dodatek nie był w schowku na klucze tylko w mieszkaniu; totalna porażka logistyczna, w budynku jest całą dobę ochrona więc można by że spokojem pilota zostawić u nich a nie latać na 4p. w stresie, przy opuszczaniu mieszkania ta sama sytuacja – jeśli np 1 rodzic sam chciałby wybrać się tylko z dziećmi np 2/3 letnimi to zdecydowanie odradzam
