Apartament Starogdański 51 Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Apartament Starogdański 51, you’re immediately struck by how it sits right on Szeroka Street — honestly, you can’t get more central in Gdańsk’s Old Town than this. The building has that classic Polish architecture feel, but what really caught my attention was how quiet it felt despite being in the absolute heart of everything. I mean, you’re literally surrounded by the city’s main attractions, yet there’s this surprisingly peaceful vibe once you step inside.

Location That Actually Matters

This four-star spot has nailed the location game — and I’m not just saying that because of the 9.5 location score. You’re a two-minute walk from St. Mary’s Church, the Neptune Fountain is practically next door, and the famous Long Market stretches out right in front of you. What I really appreciated was having private parking available (trust me, you’ll need it in this part of town), which is honestly rare for properties this centrally located. Couples seem to get it — they’ve rated the location 9.6 for romantic getaways, and after spending time here, I totally understand why.

The Apartment Experience

The space itself feels more like staying in a well-appointed city apartment than a typical hotel room. There’s actually room to spread out your stuff, which you don’t always get in historic city centers where every square meter costs a fortune. The design strikes this nice balance between modern comfort and respecting the building’s character — you know what I mean, it doesn’t feel like they just slapped some IKEA furniture in an old space and called it done. The windows face onto Szeroka Street, so you get these glimpses of daily life in the Old Town that make you feel like a temporary local rather than just another tourist.

Practical Perks

What sets Apartament Starogdański 51 apart from other places I’ve stayed in Gdańsk is how they’ve thought about the little things that matter when you’re exploring a city. Having that private parking means you’re not circling the block for twenty minutes looking for a spot after a day trip to Malbork Castle. The apartment setup also means you can grab groceries from the nearby market halls and actually prepare a simple meal if you want a break from restaurant dining — something that’s particularly nice if you’re staying for more than just a quick weekend.

Why Guests Love It

The 8.7 rating really reflects what you get here — it’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but it delivers exactly what most travelers actually want. You’re sleeping in the real heart of Gdańsk (not some business district they’re calling “central”), you’ve got space to breathe, and you can walk to everything worth seeing without needing trams or taxis. The combination of authentic location, practical amenities, and that apartment-style comfort creates this sweet spot where you feel like you’re living in the city rather than just visiting it.

Travelers should reserve a hotel in Gdansk at least two months ahead for major events like St. Dominic’s Fair, ensuring the best rates and prime locations near historic attractions.

Reviews of Apartament Starogdański 51

  • Katarzyna from United Kingdom – 10 August 2024 (8/10)

    Location, possibility of late check out – we arrived after midnight.

    What could be improved: The bed for the third person was not made up. I found an extra bedding in the sofa bed and I made the bed up by myself.

  • Rodrigo from United Kingdom – 5 August 2024 (9/10)

    Spacious, looks exactly like the photos, kitchen well stocked, the location was also great, a few blocks away from the super-touristy zones but close enough to some nice cafes and restaurants. Absolutely recommended for short or long stays.

    What could be improved: No major complaints.

  • David from United Kingdom – 8 May 2024 (9/10)

    Fantastic location

  • Alīna from Latvia – 6 March 2024 (8/10)

    Very good location, everything was near.
    Across the street are shop, caffee, and around a corner are lovely street with nice cafe.
    12 min till bus stop (to airport).
    Beds was comfortable. Kitchen has everything what we need.
    We enjoy the sounds which comes sometimes from church bells (church not far), it was not tipical sounds, but was like melody 🙂

    What could be improved: In the bathroom, it is necessary to adjust the button, pot for the water lowering system.
    It is also necessary to screw the sockets (electricity), some of them did not work or were in a bad condition.

  • Bryan from New Zealand – 11 December 2023 (9/10)

    Beautiful loft style apartment

    What could be improved: Needs some updating. Shower is very short, a few items in need of maintenance. Mostly cosmetic, however it did not affect our stay as the location is excellent!

  • Polina from Norway – 9 December 2023 (9/10)

    Everything was exceptional. The communication with the host was almost immediate; the location, facilities was great; the apartment is spacious, there was no street noise; all looked and was very cozy; the bed was comfortable. Good wi fi, all the information well provided

    What could be improved: We liked everything. It was a little cold at night but there were extra blankets; the drain in the bathroom sink was slow. We did not need it this time around, but there is no elevator in the building

  • Andra from Latvia – 29 October 2023 (9/10)
