Apartament 52 Old Town Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to Apartament 52 Old Town on Garbary Street, you immediately know you’ve found something special. This four-star property sits right in the beating heart of Gdańsk’s Old Town, and I mean literally — you’re surrounded by those gorgeous colorful merchant houses that make this city so photogenic. The building itself has that perfect blend of historical charm and modern comfort that’s honestly pretty hard to find in this part of Europe.
Location That Actually Matters
Here’s what I love about this spot — you can walk to everything that matters in about three minutes. The famous Neptune Fountain? Right there. St. Mary’s Basilica? Around the corner. But here’s the thing locals know: Garbary Street is just far enough from the main tourist drag that you won’t be dealing with cruise ship crowds outside your window at 7 AM.
You get all the charm without the chaos, which is probably why couples rate this location so highly — there’s something genuinely romantic about having the Old Town practically to yourselves in the early morning.
The Apartment Experience
What sets this place apart is that you’re staying in an actual apartment, not just a hotel room. The space feels like a carefully curated home rather than a generic accommodation. The kitchen is fully equipped — I actually cooked breakfast here using ingredients from the nearby Hala Targowa market, which felt wonderfully authentic. The design strikes this nice balance between contemporary Polish style and nods to Gdańsk’s maritime heritage, with thoughtful touches that show someone really cares about the guest experience.
Practical Perks
Let’s talk about the stuff that actually matters when you’re traveling. The parking situation is sorted — they have on-site spots available, which is honestly a godsend in Old Town Gdańsk where finding parking can be a nightmare. The Wi-Fi is solid (I worked from here for a couple of days without issues), and the apartment stays surprisingly quiet despite being in such a central location. You know what really impressed me? The attention to detail in the amenities — proper coffee, quality linens, and everything you’d actually need for a comfortable stay.
Why Guests Love It
That 9.3 rating isn’t just numbers on a screen — it reflects what happens when you combine an unbeatable location with genuine hospitality. This isn’t one of those places where you feel like just another booking; there’s a personal touch that makes the difference. Whether you’re here for a romantic weekend (and honestly, couples seem to absolutely love this place) or exploring Gdańsk’s incredible history, you’ll appreciate having a proper base that feels like home. The fact that you can walk to the best restaurant in the Old Town, grab groceries for a cozy night in, or catch the tram to Sopot beach all from the same central location — well, that’s the kind of flexibility that turns a good trip into a great one.

Reviews of Apartament 52 Old Town
Anna from Czech Republic – 4 February 2025 (10/10)
Great location right in the centre. Clean apartment, nice bathroom, big windows. Easy communication with the host. Comfortable bed (the mattress is hard but I prefer that).
What could be improved: – There was only one blanket for two of us, and it seemed quite small. Luckily we found more bed linen under the bed, hopefully the host did not mind that we took them.
– The street can be noisy at night, but this can be solved with ear plugs.Kullberg from Sweden – 16 December 2024 (10/10)
Had everything you need and close to everything
What could be improved: Pretty noisy from the outsideJolanta from United Kingdom – 19 November 2024 (9/10)
Clean, tidy, nice apartment in the old town of Gdansk. Very good location, close to the public transport.
What could be improved: There was single duvet instead double. shower very small and you have to be quick while taking shower as it gets cold after few minutes.Tat from United Kingdom – 15 September 2024 (9/10)
The location was perfect. The apartment had everything we needed.
What could be improved: Nothing to fault but a full length mirror on the wall would have been a bonus.Nicola from United Kingdom – 5 December 2023 (10/10)
Location was amazing, especially for the Christmas markets. Literally a few steps away from the apartment and your in the main street of Gdansk old town. The apartment is compact but literally has everything you could need, shampoo and conditioner were provided as well as washing up facilities. The price was amazing too, we will definitely be returning.
What could be improved: Nothing! The only thing I would say is that there is a lot of street noise at night but it didn't bother us. Also the apartment was on the third floor up a steep spiral staircase which would be an issue for anyone with mobility problems.Peter from United Kingdom – 24 October 2023 (10/10)
Fantastic apartment with everything you will need for your stay in a great location.
Thomas from Germany – 3 July 2023 (10/10)
Clean, tidy, nice apartment in the old town of Gdansk. Comfortable bed, little kitchen, everything was fine.
Perfect located – 3 minutes to tram, 1 minute to supermarket, 1-15 minutes to all bars and restaurants in old town.
Extra plus: I forgot my keys in the apartment. My hostess send them immediately back to my flat in Berlin.
What could be improved: Because of its location in the old town with all the bars it can be very loud on Friday and Saturday night. So I recommend to wear earplugs while sleeping.Mariosfienti from Italy – 15 February 2023 (10/10)

What could be improved: there is no wardrobe to be able to empty the suitcaseSimona from Lithuania – 23 October 2022 (10/10)
It is nice place to stop in Gdansk Old Town near the City Gates. There is a comfortable apartment for a couple, there are all the necessary household appliances.
Stela from Lithuania – 31 August 2022 (10/10)
