Sunrise – Letnica by OneApartments

Sunrise – Letnica by OneApartments Overview

Sunrise – Letnica by OneApartments is tucked right on Starowiejska, the kind of corner you’d think might be too far from the Old Town, but trust me, it’s a stone’s throw away—just a quick 5‑minute walk to the cobblestones and the bustling Westerplatte square. I pulled into a narrow street parking spot, and the meter had a 30‑minute limit, so I had to let someone else handle the rest of the afternoon. The check‑in was a quick, friendly handshake; the front desk staff actually remembered my name after a couple of calls, which felt like a small personal touch in a city that’s always moving. The lobby’s minimalist décor, with its muted wooden paneling, is more than just a waiting area; it’s a place to sip a locally roasted coffee and watch the city breathe. (Honestly, the espresso was stronger than my usual, and it really kick‑started my day.)

Once inside the room, the first thing I noticed was the floor‑to‑ceiling windows, giving a panoramic view of the Baltic’s sunrise—no joke, you could almost feel the sea mist on your skin. The bed was a king‑size affair with a mattress that remembered the exact curve of my back from the first night. I fell asleep to the gentle hum of the city, a mix of distant tram bells and the occasional gull cry. The bathroom smelled faintly of citrus, a subtle hint that the hotel’s cleaning team knows how to keep the air fresh without the overpowering disinfectant scent you find in many hotels. The in‑room Wi‑Fi was spotlessly fast, which is a lifesaver when you’re juggling work and wanderlust. (I mean, I could stream a whole season of my favorite series without buffering—nice!)

What really makes Sunrise – Letnica by OneApartments stand out is how it feels less like a tourist trap and more like a local’s favorite spot. A short stroll west takes you to Rakowicka, where a chain of historic cafés offers the best pierogi you’ve ever had—mine were topped with caramelized onions and a whisper of truffle oil. The street around the hotel buzzes with street performers and the occasional market vendor, but I found the noise level surprisingly manageable; the only real sound at night is the city’s soft lullaby of distant traffic. Parking can be a bit of a scavenger hunt, but the street meters are well‑marked, and the hotel offers a small valet service if you’re willing to splurge a bit. We’re not far from the Gdańsk Main Railway Station, so catching a train to the coast or the university campus is a breeze—just a quick 10‑minute walk. The hotel’s rating of 10 is no exaggeration; the staff’s attentiveness and the quality of the amenities make every extra cent feel earned. The only critique? The free Wi‑Fi password is written on a tiny card taped to the door, so I had to search a bit before it connected—small but worth noting for the tech‑savvy traveler. All in all, Sunrise – Letnica by OneApartments is a cozy, well‑situated haven that feels like a home away from home, especially if you’re looking to soak in Gdańsk’s charm without the tourist shuffle.
