Apartament z balkonem blisko Starego Miasta Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked up to Apartament z balkonem blisko Starego Miasta, I’ll be honest — the building itself doesn’t scream “wow factor” from the outside. But you know what? Sometimes the best places are the ones that surprise you. This four-star apartment sits on Łąkowa Street, and once you’re inside, you realize the magic is all about location and that promised balcony. The entrance is clean and well-maintained, though I’d say it has more of a residential feel than a hotel vibe — which actually works in its favor.

Location That Actually Matters

Here’s where this place really shines — and I mean really shines. You’re basically a stone’s throw from Gdańsk’s Old Town, which means you can walk to all the main sights without dealing with trams or taxis. I spent my mornings wandering over to the Neptune Fountain and St. Mary’s Church, then ducking back for an afternoon break before heading out for dinner. The neighborhood itself is quiet enough that you’ll actually sleep well, but close enough to the action that you won’t feel disconnected. Couples seem to get this — apparently they rate the location a perfect 10, and honestly, I can see why.

The Space Itself

The room setup is pretty smart, actually. You’ve got everything you need without feeling cramped, and the balcony — well, that’s the real selling point here. It’s not huge, but it’s perfect for morning coffee or an evening drink while you watch the neighborhood come alive. The kitchen area is compact but functional, which I appreciated since eating out every meal in Gdańsk can add up quickly. The bathroom is modern and clean, though the shower could use a bit more water pressure if I’m being picky.

What Works and What Doesn’t

The apartment feels more like staying at a friend’s place than a traditional hotel, which some people love and others might find a bit impersonal. There’s no front desk to call if something goes wrong, but the check-in process was smooth enough. Parking can be a bit tricky in this area — I ended up using a nearby lot rather than trying to find street spots. The Wi-Fi worked fine for my needs, and the place stayed quiet even on weekend nights, which was a pleasant surprise given how central everything is.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t the fanciest place you’ll ever stay, but it nails the fundamentals. The location score of 9.9 isn’t just marketing fluff — you really can walk everywhere that matters in the Old Town. The balcony gives you a little breathing room when you need it, and having that kitchenette means you can grab groceries and save some money on meals. For couples especially, there’s something nice about having your own little space in the heart of the city rather than just another hotel room. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find yourself planning to come back, not because it’s perfect, but because it just works.

Gdansk’s apartments offer spacious accommodations with Baltic charm, perfect for families wanting to experience daily life in this historically significant Polish coastal city.

Reviews of Apartament z balkonem blisko Starego Miasta

  • Michaela from Czech Republic – 27 April 2025 (9/10)

    Perfect location few minutes from cit centre, multiple shops and restaurants around, nature nearby perfect for walks/runs, overall can highly recommend and likely will be back

  • Natalia from Poland – 27 April 2025 (8/10)

    Dobra lokalizacja i cena, ładne nowe osiedle

    What could be improved: Brak:
    – dwóch osobnych kompletów pościeli (była jedna duża kołdra)
    – koca
    – kawy i herbaty
    – żelu pod prysznic i szamponu
    – ręcznika pod prysznic

  • Iryna from Poland – 31 December 2024 (7/10)

    Всё удобно и продумано

    What could be improved: Поломанные стулья, на потолке грязь.

  • Ewa from Poland – 11 October 2024 (7/10)

    Korzystna lokalizacja

    What could be improved: Zapchane umywalki

  • Matthew from Denmark – 1 August 2024 (8/10)

    New and modern, good location, nice balcony and easy checkin/out

    What could be improved: Missing some essentials which would have improved the stay. It is a little sparsely furnished and low on some of the essentials. More towels/cloths/ dish sponges/ shampoo etc.. would have been helpful.

    A one page info book would have been very helpful, with info on how to sort the trash/ wifi code etc..

  • Tomasz from Poland – 24 August 2023 (9/10)

    Wszystko Ok

  • Katarzyna from Poland – 21 August 2023 (9/10)

    Świetna lokalizacja, bardzo blisko Starego Miasta, góra 10 min. spacerkiem. Ciche miejsce, cisza w bloku i wokół bloku. Dobra wielkość apartamentu, duży balkon. Spora łazienka, z suszarką do włosów, ręcznikami i pralką (gdyby ktoś potrzebował przy dłuższym pobycie). Aneks kuchenny wyposażony w niezbędne sprzęty i przybory kuchenne.

    What could be improved: Głośna praca lodówki, zwłaszcza w nocy uciążliwe było nagłe głośne uruchamianie się lodówki.

  • Piotr from Poland – 24 June 2023 (9/10)

    Fantastyczna lokalizacja- 5 minut od starówki, mieszkanie w pełni wyposażone, bardzo dobrze skomunikowane (tramwaj, autobus)

    What could be improved: Brak parkingu przypisanego do bloku. Kto pierwszy, ten lepszy. Druga kwestia to czystość mieszkania. Na pierwszy rzut oka niby jest posprzątane ale… Brudna wanna, brudny zlew i blat w aneksie kuchennym, obklejone baterie w umywalce, wannie i w kuchni.

  • Marta from Poland – 11 March 2023 (8/10)

    Convenient self-check in, good location close to shops and restaurants. Wifi fast and suitable for work.
    Comfortable bed. Everything is new. The flat is very quiet (except the fridge that was making scary sounds)

    What could be improved: These are several small things but improving it could really change the experience:
    It would be nice to have more than one bedding set for two weeks and more than three towels.

    It would be good to have a wi fi details printed somewhere where you can see them when you arrive as well as other info (where're the closest garbage bins for example)

    The cleaning could be more thorough (there's a pack of chips under the bed)

    The check out
    demanded at 10 am, which is super early.

    I was also required to leave about 40 zl in cash which was not very convenient for me personally as i don't use cash, the amount wad less than the smallest amount you can get in atms so i had to go change it after which was not very convenient. I've stayed in Gdansk plenty of times and was never asked to pay something extra than i already paid via Booking (I guess something has changed but i think you could make it more convenient – include it in the price or make an opportunity to send it to you in a convenient way so guests don't have to think about stuff like this)

  • Valeryia from Belarus – 31 January 2023 (8/10)

    One of the best stays I’ve ever had! New apartment, exactly as on the photos. It had everything I needed: towels, bed sheets, hairdryer, dishes. I liked how spacious it was.
    In the bathroom there is a very nice mirror with lightning. Less then 10 mins by walking to the Old Town. A couple of grocery stores right near the house. And very friendly host 😊
