Apartment Old Town and river view Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Apartment Old Town and river view on Szopy street, you immediately understand why this place gets such rave reviews. The building sits right in the thick of Gdańsk’s historic quarter, and honestly, the location couldn’t be better — you’re literally steps away from everything that makes this city special. It’s a four-star property that feels more intimate than your typical hotel, which actually works in its favor. The Motława River views are genuinely lovely too, especially in the evening when the light hits the water just right. The historic architecture surrounding the building creates an authentic atmosphere that immediately transports you into the heart of this medieval trading city.

The Heart of Historic Gdańsk

You know what strikes you first? How effortlessly you can explore from here. The famous Long Market is practically at your doorstep, and those gorgeous colorful townhouses that everyone comes to see are right there when you step outside. I’ve stayed in other parts of Gdańsk, and trust me, being this central makes all the difference — you can duck back to your room between sightseeing without it feeling like a trek. The cobblestone streets lead you naturally to St. Mary’s Basilica, the Neptune Fountain, and countless charming cafés where you can watch the world go by.

Smart Accommodation Choice

The apartment setup here is pretty clever, actually. You get more space than a standard hotel room, which feels especially nice after spending days wandering cobblestone streets. The layout makes sense — there’s a proper seating area where you can actually relax, and the kitchen comes in handy if you want to grab some local ingredients from the nearby markets. It’s not fancy, but everything works well and feels clean and comfortable. The windows frame those river views perfectly, and you’ll find yourself lingering over morning coffee just to soak in the scenery.

Practical Perks

Here’s something that’ll save you headaches — they offer free parking on site, which is honestly a godsend in this part of the city. Finding a spot in Old Town can be a nightmare, so having that sorted is huge. The staff knows the area well too, and they’re good about pointing you toward the less touristy spots that are worth checking out. I particularly appreciated their recommendations for local restaurant options that weren’t just the obvious choices along the main drag. They also provide helpful tips about timing your visits to popular attractions to avoid the biggest crowds.

Why Guests Love It

The location score of 9.4 isn’t just numbers on a screen — it really shows when you’re there. Couples especially seem to get it, with ratings reaching 9.7, and I can see why. There’s something romantic about being able to stroll along the river at sunset and then be back in your cozy space within minutes. The whole experience feels authentic rather than packaged, if that makes sense. You’re staying where locals actually live and work, not in some isolated hotel bubble. For the price point and what you get — the space, the location, the convenience — it’s a solid choice that delivers on its promises without any unnecessary fuss.

  • Galimovas from Lithuania – 8 October 2024 (9/10)

    Patiko butas,vaizdas pro langą iš dešimto aukšto. Švaru, tvarkinga ir viskas puiku. Arti senamiestis ir viską galima apeiti pėsčiomis.

    What could be improved: Komentarų nėra,viskas patiko.

  • Beczak from Poland – 14 July 2024 (9/10)

    Super mieszkanko, czyściutko. Blisko do centrum. Widok z balkonu piękny.

    What could be improved: Winda w bloku mogłaby być nowsza. Jazda nią na dziesiąte piętro to ekstremalna przygoda.

  • Anita from Poland – 10 July 2024 (9/10)

    Super lokalizacja i bardzo dobrze wyposażony apartament z balkonem. W mieszkaniu jest wszystko: od żelazka i deskę do prasowania, przez suszarkę, po wyposażenie kuchni. Jest sporo miejsc parkingowych przy budynku, nie mieliśmy problemu z zaparkowaniem auta.

    What could be improved: Trzeba zwrócić uwagę, że odbiór i oddanie kluczy odbywa się pod innym adresem, w określonych godzinach.

  • Dąbska from Poland – 15 May 2024 (9/10)

    Mieszkanie bardzo czyste, piękny widok, wystarczająco przestronnie. Dobrze wyposażona kuchnia jak i samo mieszkanie. Ogromny plus za żelazko i pralkę

  • Dariusz from Poland – 10 October 2023 (9/10)

    Super miejsce. Apartament jest położony w samym centrum Gdańska, bardzo blisko do restauracji i cudownych widoków nad Motławą. Przystanek szybkiej kolei w odległości stu metrów. Cudowny widok z okna na rzekę i panoramę Gdańska. Mogłabym ten widok podziwiać codziennie. Apartament bardzo czysty i dobrze urządzony. Łóżko w sypialni bardzo wygodne, co zapewniało jeszcze większy komfort. Pościel i ręczniki czyste i pachnące. Aneks kuchenny wyposażony we wszystkie potrzebne akcesoria i zestaw do parzenia kawy i herbaty. W łazience dostępna suszarka i nawet pralka. Apartament jest klimatyzowany, co zapewnia dodatkowy komfort.

  • Andrius from Lithuania – 4 September 2023 (9/10)

    Great location.

    What could be improved: The bed mattress was quite hard.
