Długi Targ Street, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments

Długi Targ Street, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments Overview

Długi Targ Street, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments is the kind of place that feels like a secret you’re meant to keep. I remember stepping out of the metro at Gdańsk Główny and walking just a few minutes past the cobblestones to 22 Długi Targ – the street’s name itself sounds like a promise of history and good coffee. The building’s façade is a tasteful mix of brick and glass, and honestly, the lobby is the real hook – a warm, light-filled space that immediately makes you feel like you’re at home. The check‑in was quick; the staff greeted us with a friendly “Dzień dobry” and handed us keys that were almost too sleek for my old keychain. (I mean, the security system feels like it’s from a sci‑fi movie, but it’s actually super reliable.)

The rooms at Długi Targ Street, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments are a 4‑star comfort zone with a 9.1 rating that’s no exaggeration. I slept in a room that opened onto the Motława River, and the view was a gentle reminder of Gdańsk’s maritime soul. The bed was king‑size, with memory foam sheets that hugged your back just right – you know those mornings when you’re not sure if you’re still in a dream? That was the case. The décor is a mix of modern polish and historical nods: a small wooden table that looks like it belongs in a 17th‑century salon, and a tiny framed photo of the St. Mary’s Church bells. Sound wise, the street outside is a mix of traffic and locals chatting – not too loud, but you can hear the distant echo of the river. The wifi is fast, and the mini‑fridge in the room is stocked with local beer, which I didn’t expect but appreciated. Parking is easy – there’s a small secure lot right outside, and you can actually park your car without digging for a spot. The only critique? The minibar was a bit pricey, but that’s a minor thing that doesn’t eclipse the overall feel.

Now, let’s talk about the neighborhood – because honestly, the best part of staying at Długi Targ Street, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments is the walkable world that surrounds it. A few blocks away, you find the Main Market Square, where the Gdańsk Crane creaks a morning greeting to the city. If you’re into history, the Old Town Museum is just a stone’s throw, and the smell of fresh pierogi from the nearby market stalls will have you thinking you’re in a food blog, not a travel guide. For a more relaxed vibe, the St. Mary’s Church square is a perfect spot to unwind with a coffee and watch the city life unfold. I’ve been there in the early summer, when the streets are buzzing with tourists, and also in the quiet winter mornings – both times, the city feels almost the same, just with different sounds.

Timing-wise, I recommend staying during late spring or early autumn. The crowds are manageable, the weather is pleasant, and you’ll catch the first blush of the city’s festive lights. If you’re a night owl, the only downside is the occasional late‑night tram, but the staff at Długi Targ Street, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments are notorious for being courteous and quick to help with any noise concerns. All in all, I’d give this place a solid thumbs up. It’s not just a hotel; it’s a doorway into Gdańsk’s heart, with a touch of modern comfort that makes every stay feel personal and genuine.

Reviews of Długi Targ Street, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments

• Philip from United Kingdom – 7 October 2024 (9/10)

  The property was in perfect condition location beautiful view out on to one of the main streets
  
  What could be improved: The shower was too small could do with an update

• Katherine from Ireland – 25 June 2024 (9/10)

  Beautiful apartment. Comfortable, clean and perfectly located on the Main Street of the old town. Great views and easy access to wide selection of good restaurants and cafes.
  
  What could be improved: Check in was contactless. Although this was simpler than instructions appeared initially, it would have been great to meet an actual person on check-in.

• Tarryn from Australia – 13 June 2024 (9/10)

  Fantastic location; spacious (except for the bathroom); tastefully furnished
  
  What could be improved: The apartment decor is slightly more dated/ less fresh than the photos (standard wear and tear). This did not detract from the stay as the apartment is very clean, but worth noting

• Julie from United Kingdom – 3 December 2023 (10/10)

  Beautiful apartment in Central location. Very warm and cosy, beds comfortable and all amenities required.
  
  What could be improved: A little bit of noise from the bar below but did not cause an issue. Added extras like teatowels and washing up liquid would have been a benefit. Other than that apartment was very good.

• Tat from United Kingdom – 26 August 2023 (9/10)

  Location and spacious apartment

• Maria_mach from Ukraine – 2 July 2023 (10/10)

  The location is great, in the very center of the city. The appartmnet is spacious, clean and cozy.
  It's good for a longer stay – there is a kitchen with all the utensils, washing machine, dishwasher, hair drier.
  
  What could be improved: The appartmnent is right above the bar on the lively central street. Closed windows reduce the noise pretty well, but it can be still kinda loud from the outside.

• Elaine from United Kingdom – 1 June 2023 (10/10)

  Excellent location easy to get everywhere in the city on foot. We took a taxi from the airport right to the gate of the property and returned to the airport the same way. So easy. Beautiful apartment, visited beginning of March. Hope to re-visit and stay in this apartment next time too.
  A beautiful and very interesting city.
  Would recommend the boat tour on the river and also solidarity museum.
