Papillon Apartamenty Gdańsk

Papillon Apartamenty Gdańsk Overview

Papillon Apartamenty Gdańsk sits right on 4 Grudziądzka, a stone’s throw from the old town’s cobblestones. I first stumbled onto it when I was wandering near the Motława River, the kind of day when the city feels like a living postcard – the scent of fresh pierogi wafting from a stand, the distant chime of bells from St. Mary’s Basilica, and the gentle hum of scooters. The building itself is a neat 4‑star block, modern but with that classic Polish touch – a brass plaque with the hotel’s name, a small garden that looks like it belongs in a European film. The lobby is warm, with a few local artists’ prints on the walls, and the staff are the kind of people who can pull a table at a nearby cafe for you if you need a quick espresso.

When I checked in, the front desk was surprisingly quick; no long queue, just a friendly smile and a quick scan of my passport. The keycard was a bit of a hassle – it didn’t work on my first try, but the attendant was on it, and after a quick tap, I was in. The room was spacious, with floor‑to‑ceiling windows that open onto a quiet street, giving you a view of the old market square – but not so loud that you can’t hear your own thoughts. The bed was a king‑size, and the linens felt like a soft hug. There’s a small kitchenette that’s surprisingly well‑equipped, which saved me a trip to a 24‑hour supermarket. The bathroom is modern, with a rain shower that’s a little too powerful – I had to turn down the pressure, but the water feels clean, and the towels are plush.

The noise level is pretty decent; the street is lively at night with locals and tourists mingling, but the hotel’s insulated walls keep the city’s clatter at a whisper. Parking is a bit of a pain – there’s a small underground lot, but you’ll have to pay and it’s a bit of a walk to the entrance. The best part, though, is the location: a short 10‑minute walk to the old town, the amber coast, and the ferry to Westerplatte. I remember stepping out one evening, the sky turning a deep navy, and the air smelling faintly of sea salt and roasted chestnuts from a nearby stall – a perfect end to a day of exploring. If you’re looking for a comfortable, well‑located spot in Gdańsk that’s not over‑the‑top, Papillon Apartamenty Gdańsk will give you the vibe of a local’s favorite hideaway.

Reviews of Papillon Apartamenty Gdańsk

• Nastassia from Poland – 10 March 2025 (6/10)

  What could be improved: We asked the landlord to extend the apartment until 14:00 in order to check out later (Sunday).
  
  to which we were told categorically no (even for additional payment).
  but when we asked to prolong it for a day, they immediately reset their BLIK for payment and agreed.
  
  what is the logic ?

• Jaroslaw from United Kingdom – 3 August 2024 (9/10)

  Clean, safe, comfortable. Close to Zabka shop and coffee 50m. The second day, find out there are blinds on the bottom of windows as only one farbic curtain is there. All was perfect.
