Flatbook – Seaside Apartments Nowa Lęborska

Flatbook – Seaside Apartments Nowa Lęborska Overview

Flatbook – Seaside Apartments Nowa Lęborska sits on 22A Lęborska, right where the old pier meets the new shopping arcade, so you get that classic Gdańsk feel without the tourist crowds. The check‑in was actually pretty smooth—there’s a small lobby, but the staff greet you with a friendly “Dzień dobry” and a quick walk to your key fob. It’s the kind of place where you feel like you’re stepping onto a local street rather than a hotel chain. The building itself is a two‑storey brick structure that’s been around since the 1970s, but the interior has a modern polish that surprised me—think neutral tones, clean lines, and a subtle nod to maritime history in the décor.

The apartment itself is a compact, two‑bedroom unit that works better than you’d expect. The living area has a sofa that folds flat into a queen bed, and the kitchen is fully equipped with a stove, fridge, and a coffee maker that actually makes decent espresso (so thank that for my morning mood). The balcony is a real highlight—there’s a small table, a couple of chairs, and a view that stretches from the harbor to the edge of the city. You can hear the waves crash against the pier and, in the evenings, the distant hum of the city’s nightlife. The noise level is pretty quiet after 10 pm, but if you’re staying during the summer, expect the usual beach crowd and a few stray dogs from the nearby park. Parking is a bit of a hassle; the building has a small underground lot, but it’s tight and you’ll need to be quick to avoid a hassle with the attendants. Street parking is available a few blocks away, but you’ll need to watch the signs—there’s a 2‑hour limit on Lęborska Street and a blue zone from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

If you’re looking for local flavor, walk down to the market on Gdańska Street, just a 10‑minute stroll away. The vendors sell fresh cod, pierogi, and even a whole roasted turkey during the Christmas season—wow, the smells are just irresistible. For a quick bite, there’s a tiny café on the corner of 22A Lęborska that serves the best espresso in town, and the owner knows your name after a couple of visits. If you’re a beach person, the pier is a short walk from the apartment, and you can rent a surfboard at the local shop on the dock—just be prepared for the early morning rush at dawn. During peak season (July and August), the area gets lively—families, tourists, and the occasional music festival—but the apartment’s insulation keeps the noise down so you can still catch some Zzz’s. In the off‑season, the street is quieter, the sea has a more relaxed rhythm, and you’ll find the local cafés open earlier, which is great if you like early breakfasts.

Overall, staying at Flatbook – Seaside Apartments Nowa Lęborska felt like a relaxed, low‑key escape. The staff were genuinely friendly, the apartment was clean and functional, and the location nailed the balance between seafront charm and city convenience. You’ll get the taste of Gdańsk without the tourist trap feel, and you’ll leave with the memory of a warm sea breeze, the sound of gulls, and the comforting aroma of fresh coffee. If you’re planning a trip, book early in the off‑season or just before the summer rush; the rates are reasonable and you’ll get a better chance of snagging a spot on the balcony. Trust me, you’ll want to come back to this little slice of the coast.

Hotels near me in Gdansk offer convenient access to the old town, where guests can easily walk to Neptune’s Fountain, St. Mary’s Church, and the famous Long Market.
