Apartament Gdańsk Piwna

Apartament Gdańsk Piwna Overview

Apartament Gdańsk Piwna is tucked right in the heart of Gdańsk, on 19 Piwna – you’ll spot it by the old brick façade that’s been painted a fresh, almost pastel color lately. I pulled up in my rental car on a crisp Wednesday morning – the parking was surprisingly easy. There’s a small street‑level lot right beside the building, and the attendants were friendly enough to give you a quick pass so you can head straight to the lobby. The check‑in was quick, no long queues; the receptionist greeted me with that genuine “Cześć, welcome!” vibe, and handed me a key card that had a cool embossed logo. No need to wait around – you’re in within minutes.

Inside, the first thing that caught me was the scent of fresh coffee that the kitchen area exudes, which is a subtle nod to that little café across the street on Gdańska. The room itself is a neat blend of modern and historic – the walls are a muted cream, and the décor includes a couple of original wooden beams that add character. The bed is spacious, with crisp linens that feel almost like a hug. I slept like a log, with the only interruption being the faint hum of the city’s nightlife at night. The bathroom was sleek, with a rain‑shower head that actually worked – and enough storage to keep my toiletries from piling up. I also found a small, well‑designed kitchenette, which is a lifesaver if you’re staying for a few days and want to whip up breakfast without heading to a café every morning.

What makes this place truly special is how it’s woven into the fabric of Gdańsk. Just a block away, there’s the bustling ceramic market on Dluga, where the smell of freshly baked pierogies mingles with the chatter of vendors. If you’re into maritime history, a five‑minute walk gets you to the Gdańsk Shipyard, where the city’s industrial past is on full display. The streets are quiet after 10 p.m., so you can enjoy a peaceful night, but the tiny bars on Piwna become lively before midnight – perfect for a casual drink. Honestly, the only downside is that the building was built in the 1970s, so the walls feel a bit thin – you might hear a neighbor’s TV flicker at times, but it’s hardly a deal‑breaker. Overall, Apartament Gdańsk Piwna feels like a home base that lets you explore the city without sacrificing comfort. I’d give it a solid 9.2 from my side, and if you’re heading to Gdańsk, it’s a spot you’ll want to check out.
