Scala 60C City Center Apartments & Studio by Lion Apartments

Scala 60C City Center Apartments & Studio by Lion Apartments Overview

Scala 60C City Center Apartments & Studio by Lion Apartments is tucked right on 60c Łąkowa, smack in the middle of Gdańsk’s old town, just a stone’s throw from the Motława River and the bustling market square. When I checked in, the staff were friendly and the front desk had a self‑check‑in kiosk that made the whole process feel almost spa‑like – no long waits, no endless paperwork. The apartment itself is a surprisingly airy space with high ceilings that echo the city’s historic vibe, and the studio layout is perfect for solo travelers or couples who want that extra bit of privacy. I was pleasantly surprised to find a small kitchenette that actually works – the fridge is a decent size, and the coffee maker is a lifesaver for those early‑morning espresso cravings. The living area is furnished with a comfortable sofa that folds into a bed, so the space feels like a home away from home.

The real charm of Scala 60C City Center Apartments & Studio by Lion Apartments comes from its surroundings. Walking out onto the street, you’re greeted by the scent of fresh pierogi from the shop on the corner of St. Mariacka, and the rhythmic clatter of trams that you can hear even from the apartment. I found myself pausing at the café on Płaska Street, sipping a latte and watching the locals go about their day – the kind of scene that makes you feel like you belong. If you’re looking for a quiet night, the apartment is only a few minutes’ walk from the quieter streets of Freta, so you can wind down without the noise of the main square. Parking is a bit of a hunt; there’s street parking a block away, but the hotel partners with a nearby garage that offers a 10‑minute walk (and a small fee). It’s not a hassle, but good to keep in mind if you’re renting a car.

I’ve stayed in a handful of city‑center spots, and this one feels like a solid middle ground – not too pricey for a 4‑star experience, but also not as high‑end as the boutique hotels that line Długi Targ. The only downside I noticed was the slightly drafty windows in the winter, which you can offset with the two‑layer curtains that come with the room. On the bright side, the staff really know their city: they pointed me to the hidden gem of a bakery on Gdańska Street and suggested the best time to catch the sunrise over the harbor. If you’re traveling in late summer, be prepared for a crowd at the nearby park; in the off‑season, however, you’ll find the streets almost empty, which is a nice change of pace. Overall, I’d say Scala 60C City Center Apartments & Studio by Lion Apartments is a genuinely comfortable, well‑placed spot that feels like a conversation rather than a pitch.

Reviews of Scala 60C City Center Apartments & Studio by Lion Apartments

• Alina from Romania – 28 May 2025 (10/10)

  Clean, new and comfy. The apartment had all the facilities. Even a washing machine, dishwasher, all you needed for cooking and coffee. Quiet building, new apartment complex and a walking distance to the city center.
  
  What could be improved: Wifi was the only thing missing.

• Dawn from United Kingdom – 15 November 2024 (10/10)

  Location was perfect, apartment was modern and clean. Fantastic value for money
  
  What could be improved: Nothing

• Kelly from United Kingdom – 24 September 2024 (8/10)

  The location was near the old town and a tram stop that will take you to the main forum shopping centre or the stories plaza beach
  
  What could be improved: The studio had no sofa which was disappointing

• Bianca from Netherlands – 10 July 2024 (9/10)

  Clean and modern apartment, nice location, walking distance to the city center, restaurants, and supermarkets. Wifi was good. The bed was comfortable. The curtains were good, no light could come in during the night. The kitchen was fully stocked. 20 min by bolt to the airport.
  
  What could be improved: I couldn't get in the garbage disposal area, because it was locked.

• Lela from Georgia – 28 April 2024 (10/10)

  I like the city and people very much
  
  What could be improved: It was cold weather

• Lydia from United Kingdom – 28 January 2024 (8/10)

  The location of the property was excellent, close to a tram stop, supermarkets and the main town was in walking distance. The complex was new so it felt very clean and fresh and we also found it to be very quiet. The apartment itself was well equipped with everything we needed for a short break. Plenty of cups, plates, towels, extra pillows etc. The water pressure and the temperature in the shower was really good. Access to the apartment is all via codes which we really liked – saved worrying about keeping keys/cards safe! So altogether a very pleasant stay.
  
  What could be improved: Personally I didn’t like that there wasn’t a full length mirror, only a circle mirror in the bathroom. But there are full length mirrors by the lift so you can still check your whole appearance on the way out!

• Donna from United Kingdom – 8 December 2023 (10/10)

  Location is perfect
  
  What could be improved: Pillows really poor

• Bridie from New Zealand – 8 November 2023 (10/10)

  This place, THIS PLACE! We were so sad to leave our absolute favourite and best place we have ever stayed. We thought it looked nice, we were wrong, it was INCREDIBLE. From the SMEG coffee machine to the almost too-perfect bed, to the stunning bath and bathroom. Not only that, we had an upgrade because of some isuue and we were so thankful. Also the location is literally as close as you can get from Old Town. BOOK HERE NOW!
  
  What could be improved: We had an issue getting int but the customer service was so amazing it was easy as!! So, no negatives.

• Alan from United Kingdom – 7 October 2023 (9/10)

  Lovely modern apartment with good amenities. Good location.
  
  What could be improved: Poor instructions. Key pick up stated at office at 60c block. The office was actually at 60a block. We spent nearly an hour trying to locate someone until a resident pointed us in the correct direction to find the office.

• Katerina from Ukraine – 2 October 2023 (10/10)

  Really beautiful and clean apartment with very good equipment, good cosmetics. Close to the city center. Very safe and calm location with a supermarket nearby. Will be happy to come back to the place again
  
  What could be improved: It was a bit complicated to figure out how to get inside of the building but once I got inside, it was after easy
