Browar Hevelius Apartments by Grand Apartments Overview

Browar Hevelius Apartments by Grand Apartments sits on a quiet corner in the heart of Gdańsk, just a stone’s throw from the cobblestones of St. Mary’s Square. I remember stepping out of the taxi, the city already buzzing with tourists and locals alike, and the first thing that caught my eye was the clean, almost understated façade—no flashy sign, just a simple logo that feels like an invitation. The front desk was surprisingly friendly; the staff handed me a keycard with a half‑smile and a quick tip: “You’ll find the best coffee at the corner café, just over the bridge.” I took that seriously, because honestly, that place had the most honest espresso in town. The check‑in itself was smooth—no waiting line, just a quick scan and a warm greeting. I mean, in a city where you’re often lost in bureaucracy, that was a breath of fresh air.

Once inside the apartment, I was hit by the scent of fresh linen and a faint hint of sea breeze that somehow makes even an indoor space feel airy. The flat is a cozy two‑bedroom unit, perfect for a couple or a small group. The living area is spacious enough to spread out a board game or a laptop—there’s even a small desk with a good view of the city’s skyline. I appreciate that the windows are double‑glazed; evenings are quiet, no distant traffic rattling the walls. The kitchenette is surprisingly well-equipped: a full-size fridge, a stove, a coffee maker—everything you need to whip up a quick breakfast or a late‑night snack. Parking is a bit of a hassle—there’s a small paid lot behind the building that can get full during peak season, but I was lucky to snag a spot right next to the entrance. If you’re driving, the street is narrow but manageable, and you can drop off your keys at the concierge if you don’t want to carry them around.

The real charm, though, is how close the apartment feels to the pulse of Gdańsk. In the morning, I took a short walk to the Market Square, where the early vendors are setting up their stalls—fresh pierogi, crisp rye bread, and the smell of roasted chestnuts. A few blocks over, there’s a little bar known as “Pijalnia Czekolady” that’s a favorite among locals; the bartenders know your name after a few visits. If you’re craving a quiet night, you can head to the pier on the Motława River, where the city lights reflect off the water and the only noise is the occasional gull. And honestly, if you’re staying in the off‑peak season, the streets are almost silent after 10 pm, making for a great night’s sleep. On the flip side, the summer nights are lively—there’s a festival at the harbor that spills onto the promenade, and the music can reach the apartment’s windows if you’re not careful. All in all, Browar Hevelius Apartments by Grand Apartments offers a blend of comfort and local flavor that feels like a home base you’d want to return to, especially when the city’s charm is best experienced from a place that truly feels like a part of it.

Reviews of Browar Hevelius Apartments by Grand Apartments

• Rachel from United Kingdom – 2 June 2025 (10/10)

  Beautiful neighbourhood. Really great restaurant (Michelin Bib Gourmand) on one side. Super coffee shops. A brewery with fab pub grub on the other side. A couple of minutes to walk from the train, which goes direct to the airport (24min) or a couple of stops to Sopot beach, or a tram into town. Great for a relaxing break.
  
  Super clean room and a lovely property.
  
  As described. Lovely high ceilings. Quiet room.
  
  Note that you need the codes to enter. Service person answered immediately when we had not read the check in instructions telling us we need a code! They allowed earlier check in than expected, as the room happened to be ready, which was really useful.
  
  What could be improved: The windows were small so the room had little natural light, and an industrial extractor/air conditioning unit meant it was too noisy outside to have the windows open for fresh air. However with the windows shut you could not hear anything.
  
  Bed mattress and duvet were low quality, but extremely clean.

• Mariusz from Poland – 18 April 2025 (10/10)

  Space
  
  What could be improved: Internet not so 😊 good…

• Anna from Poland – 1 April 2025 (9/10)

  Great location and apartment, had everything we needed, nicely decorated and in a great condition. Small issue was Wi-Fi didn’t seem to work sometimes and Netflix was saying try later. Close to everything like shops, restaurants and transport etc. to explore Gdańsk. Would stay again.

• Chun-chieh from Poland – 28 December 2024 (10/10)

  The service of Browar Hevelius Apartments is very professional and we highly appreciated the compensation from the owner.

• Viktoria from Iceland – 3 December 2024 (10/10)

  Wonderful hotel! Amazing location if you're there for shopping or just travelling around.
  Beautiful hotel suite with everything we needed. Were visiting this hotel again!

• Pavlo from Poland – 18 November 2024 (9/10)

  Just a good hotel in the city center.

• Richard from United Kingdom – 3 October 2024 (8/10)

  A beautiful apartment, close to the Gdansk West railway station which is only a few stops from the airport. Perfect for a late arrival. Only had one night but would have happily spent more. Immaculately clean and exceptional decor.
  
  What could be improved: Wifi internet connection times out after 30 minutes.Yes, you can log straight back in again but it is a pain in the a$$.

• Loreta from Latvia – 19 September 2024 (10/10)

  Everything was just amazing, the polite hosts, amazing apartment (just like on pictures or even better), fantastic neighbourhood of the building itself.
  Although we were 30 min late while check-out, the hosts were so polite and did not make a big thing out of this situation. Also they let us have an early check – in, because we arrived earlier than expected.

• Kasia from United Kingdom – 6 September 2024 (10/10)

  Our experience at this hotel was excellent. From the moment we arrived, the receptionist was incredibly helpful and made sure we felt welcome. The service was also top-notch – whenever we had a question or needed assistance, the staff responded quickly and efficiently.
  
  The apartment we rented was advertised as one-bedroom, but it felt much more spacious than expected. The layout was smart and functional, making it a very comfortable place to stay. Everything was spotless and exactly as described in the listing, including the convenience of a lift.
  
  Although the listing mentioned that parking wasn’t available, we were pleasantly surprised to find out they had a special arrangement with a nearby shopping centre, where you could park for just 30 PLN per day. In the end, we didn’t need to use it, as street parking was easily available.
  
  Another highlight was the on-site bakery and restaurant – both were fantastic! Plus, there are plenty of great dining options nearby. The hotel is also conveniently located near public transport, yet it’s situated in a quiet area next to a lovely park, offering a peaceful retreat from the city.
  
  We had a wonderfully relaxing stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone.
  
  What could be improved: The only minor remark is that a towel for drying dishes could have been provided.

• Simon from Poland – 31 August 2024 (10/10)

  The property boasts an excellent location, conveniently situated near the station and shops. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, providing outstanding service. Additionally, it offers great value for money. The parking is a fantastic bonus at just 30 PLN per day.
  
  What could be improved: Only downside is no microwave
