Słoneczna Przystań przy plaży

Słoneczna Przystań przy plaży Overview

Słoneczna Przystań przy plaży sits right on Władysława Broniewskiego 1e/12, so you’re practically a stone’s throw from the Brzeźno beach. The first thing you notice is the airy, sun‑lit lobby that feels less like a hotel and more like a cozy, upscale café. I remember stepping in on a bright Saturday, and the staff—always a friendly face—were already ready to help with luggage, which honestly made the whole check‑in feel like a warm welcome rather than a chore. Parking is a breeze: there’s a small on‑site lot that’s free for guests, and if you’re more adventurous, the streets behind the hotel (Władysława Broniewskiego and the neighboring Kępa) have municipal parking spaces that are just a minute’s walk.

Once inside the room, the vibe is unmistakably Polish chic with a modern twist. The bed’s mattresses have that perfect spring‑y feel that’s hard to get in many European hotels, and the linens are crisp and thick—great for a good night’s sleep after a day of sea air. I appreciated the little touches: a small wooden trivet that says “Słoneczna Przystań przy plaży” (in the Słoneczna Przystań przy plaży logo), a selection of local teas, and a tiny bottle of sea‑salted soap that smells like a fresh morning on the coast. The bathroom is spacious, with a walk‑in shower that offers a panoramic view of the windows, letting you see the waves crash against the rocks even from inside. The noise level is usually decent; in summer, the beach clubs can get loud at night, but early mornings are surprisingly quiet, and the building’s walls do a good job of muffling the distant traffic from the city center.

The real charm, though, is the location—literally right by the beach and close to the old town. From the hotel, you can stroll down to the local pier in about five minutes, where the fishermen still bring in the day’s catch and the smell of fresh fish mingles with the salty breeze. If you’re craving a bite, head to the little bistro on Kępa street, “Café Słoneczny,” where the pierogi are made from scratch and the coffee is strong enough to wake you up. For a leisurely afternoon, take a walk down to the marina in Oliwa; the shops there are quirky and the view of the harbor is a perfect Instagram shot. And if you’re into history, the old town is only a 20‑minute tram ride away—just enough time to soak in the medieval architecture and maybe enjoy a glass of local wine in one of the many bars.

I have to mention that the hotel’s rating of 10 is well deserved. The staff are consistently helpful; I once asked for a late check‑out, and they accommodated me without a fuss. The only minor critique is that the Wi‑Fi can be spotty around the lobby during peak hours, but that’s a small price to pay for the overall experience. The restaurant on the first floor serves a breakfast buffet that’s robust—think eggs, smoked salmon, and a selection of Polish pastries that you won’t find in most other hotels. By the end of the day, the sunset over the Baltic Sea is a breathtaking sight that makes you forget any tiny inconveniences.

All in all, staying at Słoneczna Przystań przy plaży feels like a personal invitation to experience Gdańsk’s coast
