PoBookowane Chmielna Apartments Old Town

PoBookowane Chmielna Apartments Old Town Overview

I landed at PoBookowane Chmielna Apartments Old Town just before the sun dipped behind the rooftops of Gdańsk. The front desk was a cozy, almost vintage space where the receptionist—an elderly woman with a bright smile—handed me a key that felt like a small, warm promise. She explained the elevator’s quirks: it takes a full minute to climb the six floors, so if you’re carrying a suitcase, you’ll want to get a lift early. The building itself is that charming, slightly weathered brick that you see in old postcards, and the courtyard is a little green oasis where pigeons and street performers mingle. Right outside, you can hear the distant clink of a pier’s wooden planks and the faint scent of fresh pierogi from a nearby stall on Gdańsk’s main square—an aroma that lingers in your nostrils as you step into the lobby.

The apartment itself is a neat, airy space that feels more like a home than a hotel room. The living area has a vintage sofa that’s surprisingly comfortable, and the sliding door opens onto a balcony that faces the cobblestone alley of Złota Street. You can see the old lighthouse in the distance, and the balcony’s railing is solid wood that squeaks a little when you lean on it—an honest reminder that this place is a living piece of history. The kitchenette is surprisingly well-equipped: there’s a kettle that whistles on cue, a full set of cookware, and a small fridge that actually keeps milk cold (I was pleasantly surprised after a few days of hot summer). I found myself sipping coffee by the window while watching the early morning traffic of trams and bicycles that weave through the narrow streets. The noise level is just right—there’s the occasional rumble of a nearby bus, but the building’s walls keep it from becoming a full-blown racket. Parking is a bit of a hunt, but the hotel provides a small two‑hour free spot in the courtyard, and beyond that you’ll need to park on the street, which is a manageable chore when you’re only staying a few nights.

When it comes to the check‑in experience, the staff were friendly and efficient, but they also gave you a quick rundown of the city’s hidden gems: a speake‑out jazz bar on Mikołajczaka Street, a sea‑salted ice cream shop on Wiśniowa, and the best pierogi stand just two blocks from the hotel. I appreciated that they didn’t push a generic “convenient location” spiel; instead, they handed me a handwritten map with their personal picks. The only critique is that the elevator’s automatic doors sometimes take longer to open, so if you’re in a hurry, it’s best to wait a few extra seconds. But honestly, that’s a small inconvenience in a place that feels genuinely welcoming.

Overall, PoBookowane Chmielna Apartments Old Town is a solid 4‑star spot that offers a blend of comfort, authenticity, and a few practical perks that every traveler will find handy. Whether you’re a history buff looking to walk the streets of the Old Town, a foodie eager to sample local pierogi, or just someone who wants a quiet, well‑furnished base to unwind after a day of sightseeing, this place checks all the boxes. I left the apartment feeling refreshed, with the memory of the old brick walls, the smell of fresh coffee, and the soft hum of the city beneath my feet—a perfect snapshot of Gdańsk’s old‑world charm blended with modern hospitality. If you’re planning a trip to the Baltic coast, I’d say book this place and let the city’s stories unfold right at your doorstep.

Apartments in Gdansk provide travelers with authentic local experiences, allowing them to explore traditional Polish markets and cook with fresh Baltic Sea specialties.

• Arturas from Lithuania – 8 August 2023 (9/10)

  All good except the noise of building construction around and Zabka shop under. If you willing to sleep longer, this place not for you 🙂 rest all good, not far from main action street, and restaurants under.
  
  What could be improved: Too noisy shop under.

  Perfekcyjna obsługa, bardzo dobra lokalizacja, blisko centrum, w cichej okolicy, wygodny, czysty apartament

• K from Poland – 21 July 2022 (8/10)

  Bardzo czyste i elegancko urządzone mieszkanie. W świetnej lokalizacji. Przyjemny widok z okna, na dole kilka dobrych knajp śniadaniowych( polecamy "Zakorkowani") oraz świetne desery w cukierni 100%czekolady. 5minut drogi do Neptuna oraz centrum restauracyjnego powstającego obecnie na wyspie Spichrzowej. Byliśmy bardzo blisko, ale nie docieral już do nas hałas z deptaku.
  Mieszkanie znajduje się w nowym czystym i przyjemnie zorganizowanym budynku. Jest dosyc cicho,choć pierwszej nocy trafiliśmy na imprezę w mieszkaniu obok. Nie byly to jednak hałasy calonocne ani wyjatkowo uciązliwe.
  Właścicielką za dopłatą zorganizowała nam wygodny parking nieopodal.
  Przez cały czas pozostawała z nami w kontakcie, pomagała z życzliwością w rożnych sprawach.
  W mieszkaniu znajdowały się ręczniki w duzej ilosci ( a nie jeden na osobę jak zazwyczaj). Łazienka byla zadbana i zachęcała do korzystania z prysznica, z czym bywa różnie nawet w nowych mieszkaniach.
  Polecilismy juz miejscówkę kilku znajomym i sami na pewno tu wrócimy.
  
  What could be improved: Mamy drobne uwagi.
  Był ekspres do kawy,ale przydaloby się na powitanie kilka kapsułek. Bardzo duze okna z zasłonami dawaly piekny widok,ale brak zaslon uniemożliwiał korzystanie z okien gdy zapalilo się światło. Wielkosc okien dawała z ulicy pelen wglad w cały salon i jadalnię.
  Poza tym wszystko nam pasowało i pozwolilo bardzo miło spedzic krotki urlop.
  Serdecznie polecamy.

  What could be improved: Brak otwieracza do wina/piwa.
