Grobla Charming Apartment by Downtown Apartments Overview

Grobla Charming Apartment by Downtown Apartments sits tucked between the brick facades of 5/7 Grobla I, right on a quiet corner of the old city’s cobblestones. The first thing you notice is the little wrought‑iron balcony that spills onto the street, a perfect spot for a steaming cup of espresso while you listen to the morning chatter of locals. The building itself is a blend of 19th‑century charm and modern touches—think clean, open layout with a touch of that classic Gdańsk woodwork, and there’s a subtle scent of fresh pine from the hallway that makes you feel instantly at home. Check‑in is quick: the front desk is staffed by an older gentleman who greets you with a warm smile and a “Dzień dobry!” He hands over a key card, and within minutes you’re on the balcony watching the world wake up.

When you step out into the street, you’re just a stone’s throw from the lively Gdańska Street, where the market stalls overflow with local cheeses and fresh pierogi. A few minutes’ walk takes you to the Motława River, where the old city’s wooden warehouses line the water and the sound of gulls mixes with the distant hum of trams. I mean, the vibe here is a perfect mix of old and new—there’s a vintage café on Piotrkowska that serves the best latte in town, and you’ll find yourself ordering a second cup before you even realize it. Parking is a bit of a hunt; you’ll need to weave through a maze of narrow lanes for a street spot, but there’s a small municipal parking lot a block away that’s a lifesaver if you’re not a fan of the “find your own spot” game. Noise? Honestly, it stays pretty low after 10 p.m., but the early morning traffic can be a bit jarring if you’re a light sleeper.

As for the apartment itself, the layout is generous—living room, kitchen, and bedroom all flowing into each other with a breezy feel. The kitchen is fully equipped, with a coffee maker that’s a must-have for the early bird. The Wi‑Fi is decent but can be a bit spotty during peak hours, so if you’re planning a video call, you might want to hop on a coffee break instead. The bathroom is compact but modern, with a rain shower that feels surprisingly spa‑like. One thing to keep in mind: there’s no elevator, so if you’re carrying a lot of luggage, you’ll need to be prepared for a couple of flights of stairs. But the view from the balcony at sunset—reds and oranges reflecting off the Motława—makes every step worth it. Overall, Grobla Charming Apartment by Downtown Apartments feels like a home you’ll want to return to, especially if you’re looking to soak up the real, unfiltered pulse of Gdańsk.

To book hotel in Gdansk during the famous St. Dominic’s Fair season, visitors should make reservations well in advance as the city attracts maritime enthusiasts and history lovers from around the world.

  • Anna from Poland – 14 May 2025 (8/10)

    Apartament ładnie urządzony, wyposażony we wszystko co niezbędne do pobytu. Czysty i elegancki. Bardzo dobry kontakt z obsługą, bezproblemowe zakwaterowanie i wykwaterowanie z możliwością pozostawienia bagażu w biurze. Lokalizacja samo serce miasta.

  • Roman from Sweden – 19 April 2025 (9/10)

    Perfekt läge

    What could be improved: Sängen.Fjädrarna stack ut.Nästan omöjligt att somna
    Hittade en liten remsa på sängen där det gick att sova.Har påpekad detta utan åtgärd

  • Santiago from Spain – 7 June 2024 (8/10)

    El apartamento está situado en el centro, muy cerca de la Catedral. Es amplio y moderno, las fotos reflejan tal y como es en realidad.
    Tienen un supermercado justo enfrente y muchos bares y restaurantes a un paso.

    What could be improved: En el baño hubiera puesto la mampara más grande, al ducharte se sale un poco el agua

  • Henrik from Sweden – 21 July 2023 (8/10)

    Läget framför allt. Bra överlag.

    What could be improved: Det skulle finnas tvättmaskin, men det gjorde det inte.

  • Nicola from United Kingdom – 21 February 2023 (8/10)

    The apartment is excellent value for money and couldn't have been in a better location to explore Gdansk.
    Everything you need is provided in the kitchen, and the furnishings are of a high standard.
    Easy access and staff were available to answer questions we had. Quick responses on email and phone.

    What could be improved: There is a frequent drainage smell in the bathroom, which may come from another apartment. I noticed this had been reported by another reviewer previously.

  • Tyler from United Kingdom – 11 November 2022 (8/10)

    everything

    What could be improved: nothing

  • Natallia from Poland – 20 October 2022 (7/10)

    Отличное расположение в сердце города. Небольшая светлая квартира с отдельной спальней.

    What could be improved: 1) Странный неприятный запах, то ли от воды, то из вытяжки.
    2) Уборка. В квартире было убрано не очень тщательно. В ванной и кухне были следы.
    3) Общение с обслуживающей компанией. Я несколько раз отметила, что мне важно заселиться за 2 часа до официально заезда, но так и не получила ответа: да или нет. А в какой-то момент со мной перестали выходить на связь. Информацию о заселении прислали перед самым заездом, я была уверена, что надо искать новый вариант, так как на сообщения на отвечают, информации о том, как заселится, тоже нет.
    4) Комплименты. В квартире есть капсульная кофеварка, но капсулы, которые есть на кухне, к ней не подходят. По итогу вроде как предоставляют чай/кофе, но воспользоваться им невозможно.

  • Costas from United Kingdom – 23 June 2022 (8/10)

    This is a perfect place to stay in Gadansk. The apartment is very modern and everything you need is available, location is brilliant and comunication with the people that own the property is great.Would highly recommended this property for sigle traveler or couples.

    What could be improved: All was perfect will use again for sure

  • Vaida from United Kingdom – 13 June 2022 (8/10)
