Apartments Waterlane Vintage & by Noclegi Renters Overview

Apartments Waterlane Vintage & by Noclegi Renters is tucked away on a quiet corner of the old quarter, just a stone’s throw from the Motława River. The first thing that hits you is the building’s charming façade—think cobblestones, a mix of brick and wood that makes it look like it could have popped straight out of a postcard from the early 20th century. When I arrived, the front desk staff was already chatting in Polish and English, and they handed me a key with a handwritten note that said, “welcome to your home, enjoy the harbor breeze!” Honestly, that little touch made the whole check‑in feel less like a transaction and more like a warm welcome.

I unpacked onto a room that feels like a cross between a loft and a snug apartment. The bed is covered in a soft duvet that smells faintly of lavender—probably the hotel’s own linen brand—and the windows frame a view of the river that’s perfect for a morning coffee. The kitchen is surprisingly well-equipped: a compact fridge, a small stove, a coffee machine that actually makes a decent espresso, and a stack of local recipe books about pierogi. I spent a couple of evenings cooking a quick pasta while listening to the distant hum of traffic and the occasional gull squawk. The only downside is that the building’s old wiring makes the lights flicker a bit when you turn them on, but nothing that spoils the vibe.

Noise-wise, the place is pretty decent. It’s not right on the main street, so you don’t get the constant chatter of tourists. You can hear the harbor in the distance—ships coming and going, the clanging of the crane at the port—but that’s more like a soothing background soundtrack than a disturbance. The only time you might feel a bit restless is during the late‑night shift at the nearby hospital on Płaszczewskiego Street, which occasionally sends out a siren that rattles the windows. If you’re a light sleeper, you might want to bring earplugs.

Parking is a bit of a hassle. There’s no free street parking in the immediate area, and the nearest public parking lot on Gdańsk Główny station costs a few zlotys a night. I ended up using a paid underground lot a few blocks away—just remember to grab the QR code from the concierge. It’s a few minutes’ walk, so you can grab a quick coffee on the way. Speaking of coffee, the café on the corner of Piłsudskiego Street is a must‑visit. The barista there knows your order by heart, and the espresso tastes like it was brewed with the beans you can’t find in any chain.

The building’s location is arguably its biggest win. You’re only a short walk from the Old Town’s cobblestone lanes, St. Mary’s Church, and the famous Gdańsk Crane—perfect for those Instagram shots. The harbor promenade is less than a

Gdansk’s hotels showcase the perfect blend of Hanseatic tradition and modern comfort, with many featuring maritime tour services and authentic Polish coastal hospitality.
