Apartament Gdańsk Elbląska 73A

Apartament Gdańsk Elbląska 73A Overview

Apartament Gdańsk Elbląska 73A is tucked into a quiet side street just a stone’s throw from the bustle of the Old Town. When you pull up to Elbląska 73A 6 you’ll notice the building’s classic brick façade, a little weathered but still full of character. I was pleasantly surprised by the front desk—warm smiles, a quick ID check, and a bag‑drop system that made it feel like a home away from home, not a hotel. The lobby is surprisingly spacious for a 4‑star property, with a local café corner that serves fresh coffee and a slice of pierogi every morning—trust me, you’ll want to try that. Parking is a bit of a hunt: there’s no on‑site lot, but you can find street parking a block north on Stara Górka if you’re willing to walk a few minutes. It’s free, but be sure to keep an eye on the time limits—Polish parking meters can be strict.

The rooms are the real deal. I booked a double with a balcony that overlooks a quiet courtyard. The view is nothing dramatic, but you can see the old brick rooftops and a few trees swaying in the wind. The bed is a solid 1.5‑meter mattress with a duvet that’s as soft as a cloud—sleeping in that room felt like a gentle hug. The bathroom is modern, with a rain shower that’s surprisingly powerful, and a little corner for a bathrobe to drape over the sink. The room’s décor is understated chic, with a mix of local ceramics and contemporary art that makes the space feel like a Gdańsk apartment rather than a hotel room. I appreciated the extra power outlets—Polish power outlets are a bit quirky, and you’ll want to plug in a phone charger and a hair dryer. The Wi‑Fi is reliable, but you’ll have to remember that the password is posted on a small card by the entrance, not a flashy screen.

Check‑in is straightforward, but you’ll need to be honest about your travel plans if you’re staying long—hotel staff will ask about your itinerary, which is fine because they’re genuinely curious. They can recommend the best spots to eat, like the small trattoria on Karmelicka Street or the market on Hala Targowa. If you’re a foodie, you’ll love the local market on Saturday mornings—fresh fish, rye bread, and the aroma of smoked sausage that drifts down from the street. For nightlife, the bars on Gdańsk Street have a good selection of craft beers, and there’s a jazz club on the 3rd floor of a nearby building that’s a hidden gem (you’ll hear live music from 9 pm).

Noise at night is minimal, thanks to the building’s thick walls. The only sound you’ll hear is the occasional distant chatter of tourists and the faint hum of traffic from the nearby tram line. During the summer months, the street can get a bit lively, especially around 8 pm when the locals head to the waterfront for a stroll. If you’re traveling with family and need a quiet spot to unwind, the courtyard’s stone bench is a great place to sit with a cup of tea and watch the city lights flicker.

Overall, Apartament Gdańsk Elbląska 73A feels like a local’s favorite hideaway—comfortable, well‑equipped, and with an authentic slice of Gdańsk life. The staff’s friendly, no‑frills approach makes you feel at ease, and the room’s cozy vibe makes it hard to want to leave. If you’re looking for a place that’s both convenient and genuinely Gdańsk, this is the spot. And honestly, the rating of 10 isn’t just a number—it’s a promise that the experience will be as good as it sounds.
