Granaria Premium Riverside & Parking by Downtown Apartments

Granaria Premium Riverside & Parking by Downtown Apartments Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Granaria Premium Riverside & Parking by Downtown Apartments on Chmielna Street, you immediately get that “I picked the right place” feeling. This four-star property sits right in the thick of things — I mean, you’re literally steps from everything that makes Gdańsk worth visiting. The building itself has this modern polish that feels fresh without trying too hard, and honestly, the fact that they’ve got their own parking right on site is already a win in my book.

Location That Actually Matters

Here’s what I love about this spot — you’re not just “close to downtown,” you’re actually in the real heart of it all. The location score of 9.8 isn’t just marketing fluff; when you step outside, the Old Town’s cobblestone streets and colorful merchant houses are right there waiting for you. I found myself wandering to the Neptune Fountain or popping into one of those cozy milk bars for pierogi without even thinking about it. The Motława River is practically at your doorstep, which means those evening strolls along the waterfront become part of your daily routine rather than a planned expedition.

The Space Itself

The apartment setup here really works — you get that home-away-from-home vibe without sacrificing any of the hotel perks you actually want. Each unit comes with a proper kitchen, which turned out to be more useful than I expected (those local markets are too good to pass up). The room layouts feel thoughtfully designed rather than just thrown together, with enough space to actually unpack and settle in. What struck me most was how quiet everything stays despite being in such a central location — good windows and solid construction, I guess.

Why Couples Keep Coming Back

There’s something about this place that just clicks for romantic getaways — couples rate the location 9.5, and after staying here, I totally get why. Maybe it’s how easy it becomes to slip into that vacation rhythm where you’re strolling hand-in-hand through the medieval streets, then ducking into a wine bar you discovered completely by accident. The riverside setting doesn’t hurt either; there’s nothing quite like having your morning coffee while watching the boats drift by on the Motława. Plus, having your own space means you can actually relax together without feeling like you’re living in a hotel lobby.

Why Guests Love It

Look, the 9.1 rating tells most of the story, but what really sells me on this place is how it solves the little problems that can make or break a trip. You’ve got secure parking (huge deal in Gdańsk’s narrow streets), you’re walking distance from everything worth seeing, and you get the independence of an apartment with the reliability of a well-run hotel. The staff clearly knows what they’re doing, and the whole operation feels polished without being stuffy. When you find a place that makes exploring a new city feel effortless rather than exhausting, well — that’s when you know you’ve found something worth remembering.

• Gosia from Poland – 2 May 2025 (10/10)

  Great, spacious apartment with lovely view. Convenient location. Although just above restaurants and busy area, these were closing 10-11 pm so it’s not really an issue.

• Malgorzata from United States – 24 April 2025 (9/10)

  Great location. Great view.
  
  What could be improved: Noise, constant moving of chairs upstairs, at midnight or later. Also loud music.

• Angela from United Kingdom – 8 April 2025 (10/10)

  Modern. Spotlessly clean. Great location.
  Customer service via WhatsApp. There was someone at reception who was very unhelpful and rude but I don’t know if she was part of the company I rented from.

• Les from Poland – 3 February 2025 (10/10)

  Location, cleanliness and facilities in apartment
  
  What could be improved: Toilet set was broken and a clearly bodged attempt made to bathroom silicon seal fix on totally the wrong type of seat. What should have been an easy fix was an irritating failure. Thankfully it was the extra toilet so it wasn't a critfailure

• Rae from Australia – 11 January 2025 (10/10)

  Great spaces for a memorable family Christmas in Gdansk. Our family of 7 stayed in three different apartments, which were across the three Granaria buildings, but it was easy enough to get from room to room through the underground parking area.
  The views and access to the old town were amazing, and the styling and facilities in each apartment were great.
  One apartment even had its own private sauna, which, while tricky to turn on, was a fun inclusion. We had an awesome time here.

• Anna from Czech Republic – 11 January 2025 (10/10)

  In general, Gdansk offers the accommodation of high standard. Based on my world travel experience, I can only confirm that the Polish know how to decorate their own living space very well and above average. The apartment was tastefully furnished and decorated, super clean. The access to the place was easy, communication with the landlord smooth, check-in easy. Everything was without any problem, We received the tips on good dining in the area, and I strongly recommend the restaurant Chleb i wino located on the ground floor of the same building complex. There is a big choice of similar apartments for rent in Gdansk. However, for us the priority was to have a good access and walking distance to the main city attractions and Christmas market preferably with the unique touch and amazing view. This apartment was exactly what we were looking for. Our stay was perfect, it could not be better.
  Also, what I liked was that we really got the apartment that we booked. Sometimes it is tricky with Booking.com as they tend to give you budget rooms yet advertise superior rooms. The owner confirmed that we would stay in Granaria B10 apartment, which is really beautiful. You can see it at: https://www.downtownapartments.pl/apartamenty/granaria-b10-1
  
  What could be improved: The apartment can get noisy during the night caused by a loud music and dancing people in the building complex. We had such experience on Saturday night. However, we knew about it prior to booking the place. This is something that we were ready to compromise as "it comes with the package", if you want to stay in the historical center and close to where everything is happening.
