Apartament Złotników 29 m 12 – Centrum Gdańska Old Town Gdansk Overview

Apartament Złotników 29 m 12 – Centrum Gdańska Old Town Gdansk is tucked right on Złotników Street, the narrow lane that snakes down from the Old Town’s medieval walls to the bustling Motława River. I remember stepping out of the hotel’s front desk, the brass plaque gleaming, and being handed a keycard that almost felt like a piece of the city’s history. The lobby itself is a cozy, low-ceilinged space with a mural of Gdańsk’s skyline, and the staff—two young Poles who greet you with a friendly “Dzień dobry” and a quick rundown of the day’s weather—make it feel less like a hotel and more like a neighborhood friend’s place. Parking is a bit of a hunt; the underground lot across the street is the nearest, but you’ll have to pay a bit more than the city’s average, and street parking can be a scramble during the summer. Still, the convenience of having parking so close to the Old Town’s cobblestones outweighs the hassle, especially when you’re planning to wander into the nearby Żuraw (Crane) by sunset.

When you walk out of the front desk, you’re already stepping into the pulse of Gdańsk. The street is alive with the scent of fresh pierogi from a stall on Stary Port, the clink of glasses from a nearby café, and the low hum of traffic from the main thoroughfare. I mean, it’s a bit noisy at 3 pm on the main square, but the rooms are surprisingly soundproof—you can almost hear the waves lapping against the Motława from the balcony. I stayed in the 12th floor suite, a surprisingly spacious room with a view of the rooftops and a tiny balcony that’s perfect for a cup of coffee while you watch the city wake up. The bathroom is a bit on the small side, but the shower’s water pressure is generous, and the tiles give a clean, modern feel that contrasts nicely with the historic stone walls outside. The Wi‑Fi is decent but can lag a bit during peak tourist seasons—if you need to send an email in the middle of a livestream of the city, you’ll want to keep the laptop on a low‑power mode.

Check‑in itself was swift; the staff handed me a QR code for the keycard, and the whole process took less than ten minutes—quick enough that I could head straight to the rooftop terrace. Honestly, the terrace is a hidden gem; a small patch of green with a few potted plants, a view of the old town’s rooftops, and a panoramic view of the river at night. I spent a couple of evenings there, sipping a glass of local cydrus while watching the city lights flicker. If you’re traveling during the busy summer months, expect the terrace to fill up by early evening, so arrive early for a good spot. The hotel’s location is ideal for walking to the St. Nicholas Church, the Artus Court, and the bustling “Żuraw” area where you can indulge in local seafood—just a five‑minute walk. I found the entire experience to be a balanced mix of comfort and immersion, a place that feels like a home base with all the essential conveniences but still lets you soak in the authentic rhythm of Gdańsk.

Gdansk hotels provide guests with comfortable accommodations in Poland’s maritime capital, known for its rich amber trade history and Solidarity movement heritage.
