Przystań Letnica, Sun & Snow

Przystań Letnica, Sun & Snow Overview

Przystań Letnica, Sun & Snow sits at 91 Starowiejska, right where the old port meets the modern buzz of Gdańsk. I remember the first time I walked up the cobblestones: the salty sea air mingled with the faint scent of fresh pierogi from a nearby stall, and the sound of the Motława River was like a lullaby. The check‑in was quick—no long lines, just a friendly host who handed over the key with a grin and a quick tip about the best pierogi spot on Dluga Street. It felt like stepping into a local’s living room, not a sterile lobby.

From there, the hotel’s layout is pretty intuitive. The rooms are spacious, with floor‑to‑ceiling windows that give you a panoramic view of the harbor. The texture of the linens is that perfect blend of crisp and cozy, and the sound of the sea can be heard at night, a subtle reminder that you’re not far from the water. Honestly, the only gripe I had was the Wi‑Fi speed, which can be a bit sluggish during peak summer nights when everyone is streaming. Parking is straightforward too—there’s a small lot right behind the building, and the staff will let you in without a fuss. Noise is minimal inside, even though the street outside is lively with musicians and street performers, especially during the summer festivals.

If you’re looking to explore, Przystań Letnica, Sun & Snow is a stone’s throw from the Old Town’s cobbled lanes. St. Mary’s Church is just a five‑minute walk, and you can wander down Dluga Street to hit the local bars that serve the best craft beers in town. For a quieter evening, the hotel’s rooftop terrace is a hidden gem; you can sip a chilled glass of Riesling while watching the sunset over the Baltic. I actually told my friend that the terrace feels like a secret garden, especially when the city lights start to glow. The staff also knows a few hidden spots for sunset walks—like the small park near the St. Catherine’s Church, where the locals love to gather for a quiet coffee.

The seasonal vibe is a big part of the experience. In the summer, the city buzzes and the hotel’s air conditioning works overtime, but you’ll still feel the sea breeze. The winter months are quieter; the harbor looks almost ghostly, and the hotel’s fireplace in the lounge becomes a cozy meeting point for travelers. I’ve been there twice—once in July and once in December—and both times felt like stepping into a different story. The quiet hours are generally after midnight, so if you’re a night owl, there’s plenty of buzz outside. If you’re more a daytime explorer, the quiet before the crowds hit is perfect for catching a nap in a room that feels like a personal sanctuary.

All in all, Przystań Letnica, Sun & Snow feels like a well‑kept secret that locals would be proud to share. The rooms are clean, the staff are genuinely helpful, and the location is just close enough to the historic core without being too hectic. If you’re planning a trip to Gdańsk and want a mix of comfort, local flavor, and easy access to both the old and the new, this place is worth the check‑in. You’ll leave with the sound of the sea still echoing in your ears and a stomach full of pierogi.

Best hotels in Gdansk range from charming boutique properties in the historic Main Town to elegant waterfront hotels with stunning views of the Motława River and Gothic architecture.
