BaySide Apartments Hevelius Overview

BaySide Apartments Hevelius caught my eye the moment I stepped off the tram, its bright blue façade almost glowing against the gray Gdańsk sky. The check‑in was smooth – the concierge greeted me with a friendly, “Welcome to the city!” and handed over a key card that worked for both the building and the on‑site parking lot, which is a lifesaver if you’re driving. I was pleasantly surprised that the lobby was free of the usual tourist crowds; it felt more like a local’s welcome mat than a hotel front desk. After dropping my bags, I took a quick stroll down Kowalska street and found a small café on the corner where the barista knew my name – a nice touch that made the place feel less like a generic stay and more like a home.

The apartment itself is a cozy two‑bedroom unit with all the basics covered, but the real charm is in the details. The kitchen is stocked with fresh produce from a nearby farmer’s market, and the bar counter is perfect for two people to sip a glass of local amber beer while watching the sunset over the Motława River. I could hear the distant hum of the harbor, a gentle lullaby that keeps the city from feeling too quiet, and the occasional gull cry that reminds you you’re right on the coast. The beds are super comfortable – the mattress was firm enough to keep me from rolling over in my sleep, and the linens feel like a soft hug. Wi‑Fi is speedy, which is essential if you’re trying to upload that Instagram feed before bedtime. Honestly, the only thing that could use a tweak is the slight echo in the living room when you shout “Who’s there?” at 2 a.m., but I guess that’s part of the city’s charm.

What really makes BaySide Apartments Hevelius stand out is its connection to the neighborhood. I took a short walk to the nearby Stogi district and found a hidden speakeasy that serves the best pierogi you’ve ever tasted – the pork and sauerkraut combo is a personal favorite. In the mornings, the street vendors on the waterfront sell fresh bread that smells like warm butter, and the occasional fisherman in a worn-out hat shrugs off the rain as he sells his catch. During peak season, the street can get noisy with music and chatter, but there’s a quiet hour between 9 p.m. and 11 p.m. when the city slows down, making it easy to retreat to the apartment and unwind. If you’re traveling during the summer, the harbor breeze can be a bit chilly in the evenings, so pack a light jacket. Overall, BaySide Apartments Hevelius feels like a local’s favorite spot – it’s practical, comfortable, and gives you a real taste of Gdańsk without the fluff. It’s the kind of place you’ll want to recommend to friends and maybe even book again on your next trip.

Reviews of BaySide Apartments Hevelius

  • Sandra from Poland – 23 September 2024 (7/10)

    Lokalizacja, wystrój

    What could be improved: Za mała ilość kubków i szklanek.

  • Małgorzata from Poland – 21 September 2024 (10/10)

    Bardzo komfortowy, przestronny i ciekawie urządzony apartament w samym sercu Gdańska. Blisko do największych atrakcji miasta oraz dworca kolejowego i przystanku komunikacji miejskiej (dojazd nad morze jednym tramwajem), co również było dla nas dodatkowym atutem.
    Zaraz obok piekarnia z przepysznymi wypiekami.
    Sam apartament wyposażony we wszystko co potrzeba, niczego nam nie brakowało, a wygodne łóżka, sprawiały, że budziliśmy się niezwykle wypoczęci.
    Zameldowanie bezkontaktowe – drzwi na kod.
    Właściciel – Pan Tomek, bardzo kontaktowy i uczynny, szczegółowo przedstawił wszystkie informacje i umożliwił nam wcześniejsze zameldowanie, za co jeszcze raz bardzo dziękujemy! ☺😊😇

  • Jessica from Norway – 15 August 2024 (10/10)

    Beliggenheten var perfekt og supersentralt. Enkelt å komme inn og ut og huseier svarte fort på meldinger. Lagt frem både håndkle og dusjsåpe. Perfekt med kaffe og te i leiligheten. 2 bakerier i nabohusets 1. etasje og apotek på andre siden av gaten.

    What could be improved: Litt lite service til 6 personer, bl.a. kun 4 glass. Sengen på det ene soverommet var super og stor, sovesofaen ok og grei for 2 personer, men sengen i det siste soverommet var det litt tynn madrass på. Men beliggenheten og standarden på leiligheten gjør absolutt opp for det.
