Apartament Mega

Apartament Mega Overview

Apartament Mega sits on 44 Myśliwska, right in the heart of Gdańsk’s old town, a stone’s throw from the bustling market square and the gentle hum of the Motława river. I remember the first time I walked up the cobblestones, the sun already dipping behind the medieval rooftops, and the scent of freshly baked pierogi drifting from the stall on St. Martyn’s Street. The check‑in was surprisingly smooth—no long queues, just a friendly receptionist who let me loose with a key card and a quick rundown of the local bus stops. Parking is a bit of a hunt on weekdays, but there’s a small underground lot a block away that charges a modest fee; on weekends, you’ll have to brave a bit of a walk through the maze of side streets, but the view from the balcony makes it worth it.

Inside, the rooms are a blend of mid‑century polish and modern touches. I stayed in a two‑bedroom suite that faces the street, so the morning light pours in through the wide windows and the gentle clatter of the city—kitchenware, people chatting, the distant echo of a tram—settles into your ears like a familiar soundtrack. The sofa looks soft enough to sink into, but honestly, that’s a lie; it’s firm, an indie choice that keeps the room from feeling too cushy. The bathroom’s tile is a deep gray, and the shower head? A little quirky, but the water pressure is solid—no weak jets or dripping taps. There’s a small kitchenette with a kettle, a fridge, and a min‑fridge that’s a lifesaver when you’re craving a midnight snack. The Wi‑Fi is reliable, but you’ll find a bit of interference if you’re on the 10th floor during the peak of the tourist season—just a little static that’s easy to ignore.

The real charm comes from the surroundings. You can stroll in 5 minutes to the St. Mary’s Church, with its towering spire that’s a landmark you’ll see from almost anywhere in the city. If you’re craving local flavor, grab a coffee at the café on Długa Street and let the barista pour you a latte while you watch the city’s pulse. There’s a small park, Łękowa Square, just a block away, perfect for a quick stretch or a quiet moment away from the bustle. I’ve noticed that early mornings are the quietest—no street vendors, just the gentle murmur of cars and the distant church bells. By noon, the square becomes a hive of activity, with street performers and tourists snapping photos. The noise level is generally manageable; the building’s walls are solid, so you won’t hear the tram rattling outside unless you’re on the ground floor. If you’re a light sleeper, the 11th floor offers a bit more distance from the street noise.

Seasonally, Gdańsk can be a mixed bag. Spring brings a pleasant chill and the first blooms along Myśliwska, while summer sees the city’s cafes lining the streets and the river turning into a splash zone for locals. The best time for a visit, in my opinion, is late September—just before the tourist rush hits full steam, but still warm enough to enjoy a walk along the waterfront. The hotel’s staff are friendly and surprisingly knowledgeable; they recommend a hidden gem, a small bistro on Głogowska, where the pie is a must‑try. All in all, Apartament Mega feels less like a hotel and more like a home base that lets you soak in the everyday rhythm of Gdańsk without the fluff. If you’re planning a trip, this place offers the right mix of comfort, convenience, and a genuine slice of city life that you won’t find in a glossy brochure.
