Arkadia Apartament nad samym morzem Overview

Arkadia Apartament nad samym morzem sits right on the edge of the Baltic, tucked into the old-quarters vibe of Gdańsk’s Wypoczynkowa street. I remember walking up to it on a crisp Saturday morning, the smell of fresh seaweed drifting from the pier and the distant clatter of fishing boats. The building itself is a charming mix of 19th‑century brickwork and modern glass, a little rough around the edges but with a lot of character. From the reception, you can almost hear the waves whispering against the walls. The check‑in was quick, but the front desk staff did have a small queue at peak times – they’re friendly, though, and you’ll get a personalized key card in no time.

I booked a room with a view of the pier and the whole thing was worth it. The double bedroom was spacious, with a big window that opens onto the sea breeze – honestly, even when the city’s hustle is loud, that salty wind and the gulls’ cries make the room feel like a private sanctuary. The décor is a mix of rustic wooden frames and pastel linens, giving it a homey feel without being too kitschy. The bathroom is a bit small, but the shower has a great pressure – in the morning, you’re suddenly “okay, this is fine”. You can also find a small kitchenette with a kettle, a mini fridge and a coffee machine that’s a lifesaver if you’re staying for a few days.

Parking is actually not a hassle here – there’s a small underground garage right behind the building, and the street parking is plentiful if you’re okay with a bit of walking. Just be sure to get your ticket before you leave; the sign says “no parking after 10 p.m.” I was there in the summer, and the parking situation was manageable – even during the busy July 15th festival, the lines were short. The hotel’s staff handled the parking exchange smoothly, and the attendants were friendly, giving you a quick heads‑up on the best spots.

The location is a win‑win. You’re only a five‑minute stroll from the historic pier and the bustling spot where locals gather to sip coffee in the summer twilight. From the hotel’s balcony, you can see the old town’s cobblestones, the cathedral’s spire, and the bright lights of the marina at night. I also walked down to Wypoczynkowa street, where there are a few little cafés and a bakery that sells the best cinnamon rolls in Gdańsk. If you’re a foodie, you’ll love the street market that’s held every Sunday – fresh fish, pierogi, and the smell of frying onions. On the quieter side, the hotel’s courtyard is a good place to unwind in the evenings; a couple of hammocks, a small fountain, and the sound of the sea is a perfect backdrop for a late‑night coffee.

Honestly, the only critique I have is that the elevator is a bit slow during peak hours, so if you’re bringing a lot of luggage, you might want to go down to the lobby and carry it down at the same time. Also, the noise from the pier starts up around 10 p.m., but that’s a small price to pay for such a prime spot. Overall, Arkadia Apartament nad samym morzem feels like a home away from home, with a few thoughtful touches that make you feel like a local. The staff’s warm greetings, the soothing sea breeze, and the easy access to the city’s best spots make it a standout choice for anyone looking to soak in Gdańsk’s maritime charm. Whether you’re a solo traveler or a couple looking for a romantic getaway, this place will keep you grounded in the city’s pulse and the sea’s calm.

Reviews of Arkadia Apartament nad samym morzem

  • Karolina from Poland – 9 June 2025 (10/10)

    Bardzo blisko do plaży, świetna lokalizacja, czysto, mieszkanie w pełni wyposażone, osiedle śliczne

    What could be improved: Wszystko było super

  • Magdalena from Poland – 26 March 2025 (10/10)

    Czysto, ładnie urządzone, stosunkowo blisko do plaży. Pięknie pachnąca pościel 🙂

  • Kamil from Poland – 16 February 2025 (10/10)

    Ładny, zadbany, czysty apartament, znajdujący się wręcz przy samej plaży, na nowym zadbanym i strzeżonym osiedlu. Super wyposażenie apartamentu między innymi w duży nowoczesny telewizor, wannę, zmywarkę i wszelki niezbędny sprzęt kuchenny. Możliwość wykwaterowania aż do godziny 12.

    What could be improved: Jedynie czego brakowało to lampki nocnej w sypialni. Oczywiście jest to drobnostka nie wpływająca na ogólną ocenę.

  • Ewelina from Poland – 2 January 2025 (10/10)

    Świetnie wyposażony apartament, bezproblemowe zameldowanie i odbiór kluczy, bliskość morza.

  • Agata from Poland – 18 November 2024 (10/10)

    Położenie przy plaży – duży plus zarówno latem jak i poza sezonem dla szukających spokoju i lubiących spacery nad morzem. Mieszkanie bardzo dobrze wyposażone, niczego nie brakowało.

    What could be improved: Jedyne co zwróciło moją uwagę to brak rolety/zasłony na oknie tarasowym, dla osoby która budzą pierwsze promienie słońca zaciemnienie ma duże znaczenie.

  • Byrczek from Poland – 19 September 2024 (10/10)

    Great location, just 5 minutes away walking from the beach. The apartment is really cute and has a big terrace. Perfect stay for couples but probably for a family too. Very well equipped. Safe and new neighbourhood. Highly recommend! <3

  • Viktorija from Lithuania – 2 August 2024 (8/10)

    What could be improved: Check in and check out process was poorly organized.

  • Rafał from Poland – 31 July 2024 (10/10)

    Znakomita lokalizacja, bardzo blisko plaży, w pobliżu niezbędna infrastruktura. Bezpieczne, czyste nowe osiedle. Idealna baza wypadowa do Sopotu i Gdańska oraz na wycieczki kolejowe do Malborka czy na Hel.

  • Tomáš from Czech Republic – 22 September 2023 (9/10)

    Nice position
    Large app
    Nice equipment

    What could be improved: On the balcony door could be a curtain

  • Fryderyk from Poland – 25 July 2023 (9/10)

    Lots of shelves and room to store stuff, nice beds and couches, functional kitchen, good washing machine and dishwasher, all needed accessories present, got apartment keys easily, great value for money and an excellent stay

    What could be improved: Toilet made weird noises, refrigerator doors were crooked and a bit hard to close, no way to cover sunlight from the balcony, a little difficult to adjust the faucet in the bathtub
