BaySide Apartments Center City Overview

BaySide Apartments Center City sits right on Ogarna 111, just a stone’s throw from the bustling Dluga Street and the shimmering Motława River. When I first walked in, the lobby was already humming with the low chatter of travelers and the distant clatter of trams. The check‑in was surprisingly breezy – a friendly clerk handed me a keycard in a single hand, no long queue, and the front desk was open 24/7 so you can drop off your bags before the official opening if you’re running late from the airport. The address places you in the heart of Gdańsk’s Old Town, but not so close that you’re buried under tourists; you can still hear the faint sea breeze from the river without the roar of a busy street.

The rooms at the BaySide Apartments Center City feel like a home away from home. The décor is a tasteful mix of modern polish and nautical accents – think navy cushions, glassy tiles, and a view that frames the old wooden pier. The beds are a solid 14-inch mattress with crisp linens that hold up even after a weekend of city hopping. I found the only real downside to be the slight hum from the street at night – a reminder that you’re in the city core, but it’s soft enough to not disturb a late night of binge‑watching. Parking is a bit of a hassle; there’s a small paid lot on Ogarna, but it fills up quickly in the summer, so I’d suggest using the city’s free bike racks if you’re staying a couple of nights. The bathroom is surprisingly spacious, with a rain shower that makes you feel like you’re stepping out into the morning fog over the river.

The real charm, honestly, is how the BaySide Apartments Center City blends into the local rhythm. Walk a block and you’re at the corner of Piotrkowska, where you can grab a pierogi from the street vendor and a cappuccino at the tiny café with the mismatched chairs. The hotel’s proximity to the Gdańsk Crane (Kran) means you can stroll to the museum in the early morning, when the city is still quiet and the air is sweet with the scent of baked bread from a nearby bakery. In the high season, the area gets lively – the pier is crowded with tourists, and the river boats are all decked out for festivals. During the quiet hours, say 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., you’ll hear the distant waves and the occasional laugh from a nearby bar, but the noise is minimal. I’d say, if you’re looking for a place that feels like a local’s favorite spot but still offers the comfort of a 4‑star rating (I’d give it an 8.8 on my scale), BaySide Apartments Center City is a solid pick. The only thing you might wish for is an extra cup of coffee in the room, but the staff are quick to oblige with a fresh pot at any hour. The place really captures the essence of Gdańsk – historic, vibrant, and unexpectedly cozy.

Exploring Gdansk offers visitors an unforgettable journey through Poland’s maritime heart, from its magnificent Gothic churches to its amber workshops and legendary shipyards where Solidarity was born.
