Nad Motławą Apartaments

Nad Motławą Apartaments Overview

Nad Motławą Apartaments sits on Sienna Grobla, a quiet street that feels like a secret hallway into Gdańsk’s old town. I remember the first time I knocked on that door – the receptionist, a young woman with a warm smile, handed me a key with a gentle “Miłego pobytu” (enjoy your stay). The lobby was surprisingly cozy: a small café corner with a kettle that always smelled of freshly brewed espresso, and a wall full of black‑and‑white photos of the Motława River at dawn. I tucked my bags into the walk‑through storage, and the whole check‑in felt like a friendly hand‑shake rather than a corporate formality. The front desk was open until 10 pm, so if you’re a night‑owl, that’s a relief – no awkward “late‑night check‑in” dance.

Inside the apartment, the vibe is like the old‑world charm you’d expect from a 4‑star place but with a laid‑back twist. The living area opens onto a balcony that faces the river, and I swear I could hear the water in the morning – a gentle, rhythmic whisper that’s oddly soothing. The kitchen is fully equipped, and I’ve found myself whipping up a quick Polish pierogi in the mornings while the scent of dill and potatoes fills the air. The bathroom is a clean, minimalist space with a rain shower that feels like a spa experience but without the spa price tag. I’d say the real perk is the floor‑to‑ceiling windows; they let in that crisp Baltic breeze that makes you want to sit on the sofa and just stare out at the old town’s rooftops. And yes, the Wi‑Fi is fast enough that I can stream my favorite shows without buffering, which is a lifesaver after a day of exploring.

But let’s talk practicalities, because that’s what travelers actually care about. Parking is a bit of a puzzle. There’s a small garage across the street – you can grab a spot for a modest fee, but the rates are a bit higher than the city’s average. If you’re driving a car, the best bet is to park on the side of Sienna Grobla and walk a few minutes to the hotel. The streets are narrow, so it’s a bit of a challenge, but the locals swear it’s worth the effort because you’ll be right where the action is. Noise-wise, the apartment is in a quiet courtyard, which means you won’t hear the rush of traffic from the main streets. However, if you’re staying during the peak of the tourist season (late June to early August), the nights can get lively with the occasional jazz band playing at the nearby “Café Sopot” on St. Michał Street, and the low‑frequency hum from the river can drift through. It’s not a full‑on nightclub, but if you’re a light sleeper, you might want to bring earplugs or choose a room that faces the courtyard.

One thing I wish the place had been better about is the breakfast options. The hotel does offer a small continental breakfast – croissants, bread, a few cheeses – but it’s a bit limited for someone who’d rather have a proper Polish breakfast with kielbasa and boiled potatoes. I ended up grabbing a pierogi from the local bakery on the corner of Sienna Grobla, which was a delightful detour (the shop owner called it “the best pierogi in town” – and he was right). That little bakery is a hidden gem, and it’s only a five‑minute walk from the apartment, so it made my mornings a lot easier.

All in all, Nad Motławą Apartaments feels like a home base that lets you soak in the authentic Gdańsk vibe. The staff are genuinely helpful, the rooms are comfortable, and the location is a sweet compromise between the old town’s bustle and the calm of the river. If you’re planning a trip and want a place that feels less like a hotel and more like a local’s living room, this is the spot. Just be ready for the occasional mild noise from the river and maybe bring a small bag of breakfast goodies if you’re craving a hearty Polish start. The rating of 9.4 is no surprise – it’s the kind of place that makes you want to write a postcard and say, “I’m in the best spot in Gdańsk, 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.
