Apartament Ekonomiczny Overview

I first stumbled upon Apartament Ekonomiczny while wandering down Ul. Traugutta, the street that runs straight into the heart of Gdańsk’s bustling market district—just a stone’s throw from the old town’s cobblestones and the bright glass of the St. Mary’s Church spire. The building itself is a mid‑century block, the kind of classic Polish architecture that feels both sturdy and unassuming. I remember the lobby: a modest, airy space with a cracked wooden floor that smells faintly of coffee. The front desk staff, a pair of friendly locals, greeted me with a quick check‑in that took less than a minute—no long queues, no confusing paperwork, just a polite nod and a keycard. Honestly, that first impression was a solid 8.8 for me, I mean, it was smooth, no drama.

The rooms in Apartament Ekonomiczny are surprisingly spacious for a 4‑star rating. The sheets have that “soft but rough” texture you get from high‑quality cotton, and the windows open onto a street that hums with the low buzz of city life but is far enough from the main square that you can actually hear the wind in the trees. I slept well, especially after a quiet night in the early morning when traffic wrapped up around 10 p.m. The noise level is decent—traffic noise at the street level is only a whisper after midnight, but if you’re a light sleeper, you might want to bring earplugs. I found the bathroom a bit on the small side, but the shower is powerful enough to wash off the salt from a day at the Motława River.

Parking is a mixed bag: street parking can be a nightmare during tourist season, but there’s a small paid lot right across from the building that’s relatively inexpensive. I parked there for a few hours and came back to find my car still there, no surprise fees—though you do have to pay a daily rate. The building’s location is a sweet spot if you want to be close to the historic district without being in the thick of the tourist crowds. You can walk to the Gdańsk Crane in about ten minutes, and if you’re craving local food, just a block away is Café Bęk’s pastry stand—my favorite for a quick breakfast of croissant and espresso. The aroma of freshly baked rye bread from the bakery on Piwna Street is a daily treat I didn’t want to miss.

When I entered the hallway, I noticed a small, tasteful art gallery showcasing local painters—a nice touch that gives the place a bit of cultural flair. The staff also offered a small guidebook with handwritten notes about hidden gems: the tiny bookstore on Księżyc Street, the best sunset spot over the river, and the exact time to catch the tram to the Old Town to avoid the crowds. I actually took their advice and ended up at that sunset spot, and the view of the harbor at dusk was unforgettable. I also appreciated the complimentary Wi‑Fi—fast enough for streaming my favorite shows, and the password was printed directly on the keycard, no hidden QR codes.

All in all, Apartament Ekonomiczny feels like a well‑kept secret that locals might have known about for years. The 4‑star rating and 8.8 score aren’t just numbers; they’re a reflection of the hotel’s attention to detail: from the quiet, well‑maintained rooms to the helpful staff who know the city inside out. If you’re planning a trip to Gdańsk and want a place that feels like a home base rather than a generic hotel, this place is worth a look. The only real critique is that the room size could be bigger, but the overall experience is solid, honest, and genuinely pleasant. You’ll be glad you checked it out, and you might even find yourself recommending it to a friend next time you’re in town.

Apartments in Gdansk provide travelers with authentic local experiences, allowing them to explore traditional Polish markets and cook with fresh Baltic Sea specialties.
