Malczewskiego 85 by Homeprime Overview

Malczewskiego 85 by Homeprime is tucked right on Jacka Malczewskiego Street, just a stone’s throw from the cobblestone lanes of the Old Town. The façade is a neat mix of brick and glass, and the front desk greets you with a smile that feels like a friendly nod from an old friend. The check‑in was quick—no long queue, just a friendly receptionist who handed over the key card and a laminated map that actually shows where the best coffee spots are. I remembered the map’s little note: “For a quick espresso, head to Kawiarnia U St. Just to the left, not far from the street.” That’s the kind of insider tip that turns a random stay into a local experience.

The room itself is a surprisingly cozy capsule. The bed was super comfortable, and the linens—soft, not too crisp—made it feel like a home rather than a hotel. You’ll notice the subtle scent of fresh linen mingling with a faint hint of the sea breeze that filters in through the window, especially when the morning light hits the harbor. The bathroom feels like a small spa, with a deep shower that has that warm water temperature you’d expect in a 4‑star place, but it’s still modest enough to avoid the overwhelming luxury feel. There’s a small kitchenette, which is handy if you want to whip up a quick breakfast, and a decent-sized desk that actually works for working travelers—no flickering lights or cramped spaces. I checked the Wi‑Fi speed, and honestly, it was fast enough for me to stream a movie without buffering—something that’s a real win for a short stay.

Getting around was a breeze. There’s a small on‑site parking lot, though it’s more for short‑term stays, so if you’re planning a longer visit, you’ll probably want to park on the street (the city’s parking meters are a bit pricey, but the staff at Malczewskiego 85 by Homeprime know the best spots). The noise level in the building is pretty low; the only disturbance I heard was the faint hum of the elevator—no rattling or creaks. If you’re a light sleeper, you’ll appreciate the thick curtains that block out the street noise from the busy Gdańsk lanes. The hotel’s location means you’re right next to the Jagiellonka Street, where you can stroll to the Royal Way (Ulica Królewska) and catch a glimpse of the old town’s historic architecture. I took a morning walk to the nearby Targ Rybny market—fresh fish, local produce, and the smell of the Baltic Sea is just… unforgettable. In the evenings, the hotel’s rooftop terrace (which you can actually access if you’re staying longer) offers a quiet spot to sip a glass of wine while watching the sunset over the Old Port; the view is actually better than you’d think for a city hotel.

Overall, Malczewskiego 85 by Homeprime felt like a reliable, well‑maintained hub that knows how to keep things straightforward yet comfortable. The staff are friendly but not overbearing, and the room’s amenities are just enough to make a traveler feel at home without any of the fuss. If you’re planning a visit to Gdańsk, especially during the spring or early summer when the streets are bustling with tourists but still manageable, this place is a solid bet. The only thing you might wish for is a bit more on‑site dining options—most of the best cafés and restaurants are a short walk away, which is fine if you’re up for exploring the city’s culinary scene. All in all, Malczewskiego 85 by Homeprime is a place you’d recommend to a friend, because it’s practical, welcoming, and just close enough to everything you’ll want to see.
