Sound Of The Sea Overview

Sound Of The Sea sits on Wypoczynkowa 2/26, just a block from the bustling Motława River, and it feels like a secret corner of Gdańsk that only locals know. I arrived on a breezy Tuesday afternoon, the kind of day when the city feels alive and the street vendors have already set up their stalls. The check‑in was surprisingly quick – a friendly receptionist, a few smiles, and a key card in my hand by the time the clock hit 3:00 pm. There’s a small, free parking spot right outside the front door, which is a lifesaver if you’re driving in from the city centre; otherwise, the tram stop on Gdańsk Młynów is just a two‑minute walk and the bus from the airport stops right next to the hotel.

The room itself is a cozy 25 square meters, with a surprisingly large window that frames the view of the old town’s rooftops and the distant sea. The bed is a bit firmer than I’d like, but the memory foam topper provided by the hotel makes up for it. I appreciated the little touches – a small bottle of local honey, a handwritten note in Polish from the staff, and a free bottle of water that was still cold after a long day of exploring. The bathroom is clean, with a rain shower that feels almost spa‑like, though the tap water is a bit hard, so I grabbed the bottled water again. The Wi‑Fi is decent, but I found that the signal drops a little in the hallway during the evening rush. I also noticed the hotel’s quiet hours start at 10:00 pm, which is great for those of us who want to sleep in after a night of walking by the riverbank.

What really makes Sound Of The Sea stand out is its vibe. The staff are genuinely friendly, often striking up conversations about the best pierogi spots or the newest art exhibit in the old town. I was told about a hidden café on Długi Targ that serves the best coffee you’ll find in Gdańsk, and I’m already planning a return visit. The breakfast spread is solid – think fresh bagels, a range of cheeses, and an impressive selection of fruit. It’s not over‑the‑top, but it’s exactly what you need after a night of exploring. If you’re planning to stay here during peak season, I’d recommend booking a room with a window for the best light, but even in the off‑season, the hotel’s proximity to the city’s main attractions means you’ll never be far from anything. The only real downside is that the front desk opens at 3:00 pm, so if you arrive earlier, you’ll have to wait a bit unless you’re staying at a partner hotel that offers early check‑in. All in all, Sound Of The Sea feels like a home base that blends the historic charm of Gdańsk with practical comforts for the traveler who wants a little extra local flavor.

Many travelers prefer to book apartments in Gdansk through trusted local agencies that provide insider knowledge about the best neighborhoods for experiencing the city’s maritime heritage and cultural attractions.

  • Marcin from Poland – 21 April 2025 (10/10)

  • Paweł from Poland – 13 November 2024 (5/10)

    Bardzo fajne miejsce. Blisko do plaży. Osiedle zamknięte, strzeżone.

    What could be improved: Mieszkanie nie było dokładnie posprzątane. Pierwsza noc było zimno. Okazało się, że system ogrzewania został tak ustawiony aby w tym czasie (wieczór i noc) nie grzać. Kolejna noc było już ciepło po samodzielnym zmianie ustawień – tak to nie powinno wyglądać, Brak mikrofali.
