Hallera 165 by Downtown Apartments

Hallera 165 by Downtown Apartments Overview

Hallera 165 by Downtown Apartments sits on Aleja Generała Józefa Hallera, right where the city’s modern vibes meet the old‑town charm. I first noticed it from a street café on Gdańsk’s historic Long Market – a quick stroll from the square, the building’s glass façade gleamed under the midday sun. The check‑in was surprisingly smooth; the front desk staff greeted us with a friendly “Dzień dobry” and handed over keycards after a quick ID scan – no long wait, no push‑ups in line. The lobby had a minimalist Polish design, with a small espresso machine that actually made decent coffee (the bitter notes were balanced by a hint of cardamom, like the local cafés).

After the room was ready, I stepped out onto the balcony, and the first thing that hit me was the city’s soundtrack: a mix of traffic, distant church bells, and the occasional laughter from a nearby street performer. It was loud during the day – the main street is a busy artery – but as the sun set and traffic thinned, the noise dropped to a gentle hum. The room itself was spacious for a 4‑star, with a king‑size bed that felt like a cloud (the mattress had that right amount of bounce, no memory foam stuff). The décor was modern but not sterile – a few local art prints on the walls, a small herb garden on the windowsill. I found the bathroom a bit on the small side, but the shower was generous and the water pressure was excellent; the only downside was a tiny tile crack in the corner, which the staff quickly fixed when I mentioned it.

Parking in the city can be a nightmare, but Hallera 165 by Downtown Apartments offers a private parking lot just behind the building – free for guests, which is a huge plus. I parked my car there on a rainy Tuesday, and the staff handed me a key that worked on the gate. The parking lot was well lit, and you can actually see the city’s skyline from the top of the building at dusk. The only thing I noticed was a small, noisy delivery truck that used to drop off deliveries at 8 a.m. every day; it was a bit of a nuisance, but not enough to make me think twice about staying there.

When it came to exploring the city, Hallera 165 by Downtown Apartments is in the sweet spot between old and new. I walked to the nearby Stare Miasto (Old Town) for a quick coffee at a café that serves the best pierogi in town, then took a short tram ride to the Baltic Sea promenade. The tram stop is only a two‑minute walk, and the route is quite scenic, passing by the Royal Castle and the art deco St. Mary’s Church. I also found a hidden gem – a little Polish bakery on the corner of Aleja Generała Józefa Hallera, just a block away. The smell of freshly baked rye bread was irresistible, and the owner gave me a complimentary loaf when I mentioned I was staying at Hallera 165 by Downtown Apartments.

Overall, this place feels like a local’s favorite spot that’s still accessible to tourists. The staff are genuinely friendly, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and the location is practically a stone’s throw from the city’s best food, culture, and nightlife. If you’re planning a trip to Gdańsk and want to stay somewhere that feels like home but still puts you in the heart of the action, Hallera 165 by Downtown Apartments is the spot. And

Hotels in Gdansk offer visitors the opportunity to stay in the heart of this Baltic gem, with easy access to shipyards, museums, and coastal attractions.
