Powroźnicza Apartments, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments Overview

Powroźnicza Apartments, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments sits right on Powroźnicza street, a narrow cobbled lane that feels as if you’ve slipped into a different century – a blend of medieval brick and modern chic. I remember the first time I stepped inside: the front desk was not a big glass façade but a warm, low doorway with a handwritten welcome sign. The staff handed me a keycard with a smile that said, “we’re glad you’re here, you know?” The check‑in was quick – no long line, just a friendly chat, and they even offered a map of the city’s hidden corners. I could already hear the distant hum of the tram and the clatter of the old pier at Gdańsk’s waterfront, which would later make my nights oddly comforting.

The apartment itself is a cozy 25‑square‑meter space that feels bigger thanks to the floor‑to‑ceiling windows that frame the river and the city lights. The décor is a tasteful mix of industrial and vintage: exposed brick, reclaimed wood, and a vintage ladder that doubles as a coat rack. I found myself leaning against the window, watching the river glide – a slice of Gdańsk’s rhythm – while sipping my first latte from the tiny but functional kitchenette. Speaking of the kitchenette, it’s surprisingly well equipped: a mini‑fridge, a kettle, and enough counter space for a quick meal. Honestly, the only thing missing was a full‑size stove – but that’s the charm of a 4‑star apartment: it’s not a hotel, it’s a home.

Parking is a bit of a mixed bag. If you’re driving, the street parking is free but in high demand, especially during the summer when the city’s festivals turn the streets into a playground of colors. I parked my car on a nearby side street and walked – it took five minutes to reach the apartment, but the walk was worth it because I got to see the market stalls on Stary Młyń and the old wooden bridges over the Motława. The noise level inside the apartment is pretty low; I could hear the city’s buzz without the intrusive hum of a busy highway. The only audible thing at night was the occasional boat passing by, which felt oddly soothing.

What I really appreciated was how Powroźnicza Apartments, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments blends into the neighborhood. After a long day,

Reviews of Powroźnicza Apartments, Main Old Town & Riverside by Downtown Apartments

  • Małgorzata from Poland – 6 May 2025 (8/10)

    Lokalizacja świetna.. jeden mankament to niemiły zapach z rur kanalizacyjnych w łazience

    What could be improved: Inny ekspres do kawy.

  • Serghei from United Kingdom – 27 April 2025 (9/10)

    Wonderful, quite clean and well located apartment.

    What could be improved: Microwave would be nice addition.

  • Gabriel from United Kingdom – 20 April 2025 (7/10)

    The location was fantastic and the staff were helpful and on hand if needed. Basic amenities were provided too. The room was clean.

    What could be improved: The bed was very uncomfortable and unstable. I had to move onto the broken sofa bed for 3 nights of our stay. With the sofa bed laid out the space was limited. So close to being great.

  • Beata from Poland – 31 March 2025 (9/10)

    Lokalizacja przy Motławie. Przestronny apartament z prywatną łazienką. Czysto i przyjemnie.

  • Glen from United Kingdom – 20 September 2024 (9/10)

    The apartment is ideally located in a lovely part of Old Town, near the waterfront, and close to some excellent bars and restaurants.

    The apartment itself was nice and clean. The bed was comfortable.

    I'd stay here again if I ever return to Gdańsk.

  • Andrii from Ukraine – 9 March 2024 (8/10)

    Отличное расположение в самом центре, но окна выходили на тихую улицу. Чисто, описание соответствует действительности. Хорошая техника.

    What could be improved: Было ужасно холодно!!! Включеные на мах батареи не грели. Также за день до заезда, после снятия полной суммы денег, на почту прислали опросник с пометкой: «без заполнения и принятия условий мы вас не заселим».

  • Przemysław from Poland – 30 December 2023 (8/10)

    Ok

    What could be improved: Brak parkingu indwidualnego.

  • Dorota from Poland – 5 November 2023 (7/10)

    Lokalizacja, wyposażenie, przytulność

    What could be improved: Zepsuta ciepła woda pod prysznicem (za słabe ciśnienie, działała tylko, kiedy odkręciło się mocno kran w umywalce)

  • Marcin from Poland – 5 November 2023 (9/10)

    Mieszkanie bardzo, bardzo czyste i funkcjonalne, urządzone z gustem. Posiada przyjemne nastrojowe oświetlenie. Lokalizacja tez na plus. Idealne dla rodziny 2+2. Był komplet naczyń, zmywarka , ekspres do kawy i pralka. Na pewno chętnie tu wrócimy.

    What could be improved: Mieszkanie jest w ścisłym centrum, czerwonej strefie parkowania aczkolwiek nie było problemu aby zaparkować auto.

  • Charles from United States – 19 September 2023 (9/10)

    The location of this apartment was absolutely perfect, in the heart of the old city without being too close to noisy bars. The flat was spacious, sunny and clean with great fittings and bed. The arrival at this apartment stay was quick and easy.

    What could be improved: Nothing, this place was absolutely perfect.
