Chmielna Park, Sun & Snow

Chmielna Park, Sun & Snow Overview

Chmielna Park, Sun & Snow is tucked into the heart of Gdańsk on ul. Chmielna 70, just a stone’s throw from the Motława River and the buzzing Old Town squares. I remember stepping out of the train station, the city’s old cobblestones still warm from the afternoon sun, and finding the hotel as if it had always been there. The lobby greets you with a mix of modern minimalist décor and a touch of amber-colored glass that nods to the city’s maritime legacy—honestly, it felt like stepping into a living postcard. The staff at the front desk were quick, friendly, and knew that the best way to get to St. Mary’s Church is a short walk down ul. Długa, so they handed me a small paper map, which I kept in my pocket like a secret treasure.

Check‑in was smooth—no long lines, just a quick swipe of my ID and a friendly face. They offered a free local SIM card, which came in handy for the next few days. The room itself was a cozy blend of comfort: a plush king bed, a work desk with a view of the river, and a balcony that opened onto the rustling of the trees in the courtyard. The bedding was a dream—soft, breathable sheets that made me want to stay in bed all day. The bathroom had a glass shower with a rainfall head and a little pocket of scented oils that left the air smelling like fresh citrus. I fell asleep to the distant chime of bells from St. Mary’s and the faint hum of city life.

Breakfast was a highlight—there’s a small café inside the hotel that serves a variety of pastries, and the coffee was brewed to a perfect roast that had the aroma of roasted chestnuts. I sat by the window next to the pier, sipping a latte, and watched the morning tide roll in. Parking is a plus; there’s a paid underground lot right behind the hotel, so you don’t have to hunt for street spots. Noise-wise, the street is lively during the day—especially around the bustling market at Amber Street—but after 10 pm you’ll find a peaceful hush, perfect for a late-night walk to the Neptune Fountain. The only minor critique? The elevator is a bit slow, but the staff’s friendly banter made up for any wait. All in all, Chmielna Park, Sun & Snow feels like a home base that’s both comfortable and genuinely connected to the pulse of Gdańsk.

Many travelers prefer to book apartments in Gdansk through trusted local agencies that provide insider knowledge about the best neighborhoods for experiencing the city’s maritime heritage and cultural attractions.
