Szeroka Old Town – BillBerry Apartments

Szeroka Old Town – BillBerry Apartments Overview

Szeroka Old Town – BillBerry Apartments sits right on Szeroka 48/49, smack in the middle of Gdańsk’s old town. I was there on a chilly October evening, the kind of night when the cobblestones feel like wet glass under your boots. The staff greeted me with a warm smile and handed me a keycard that glowed on the counter – no long line, just a quick exchange and a friendly “welcome to Gdańsk!” (I mean, that’s a relief after the usual airport‑to‑hotel hassle). Parking was a bit of a scavenger hunt; the nearest spot is in a small garage on Złota Street, a 5‑minute walk, but there’s also a few street parking bays a block away – just keep an eye on the meters, they can be strict.

The apartment itself feels like a family home rather than a hotel room. The living area is big enough for a laptop and a good book, and the kitchenette has all the essentials: a kettle, a slow‑cook pot, a small fridge. I was pleasantly surprised by the quietness inside – the city’s chatter was muffled by the thick walls, so I could hear my own thoughts. The beds are the kind that make you want to stay in forever – memory‑foam, a bit too firm for my taste, but the pillows are plush enough to pretend you’re on a cloud. The bathroom is spotless, though the shower head has a bit of a leak that drips like a tiny, annoying fire alarm. Wi‑Fi is free, but the signal can wobble in the corner of the room – best to move to the living area if you need to stream something.

Outside, the streets are alive with the scent of pierogi and fresh coffee. I’d walk over to Dluga Street (just a few steps away) for a latte at a small café that serves the best cinnamon rolls I’ve ever tasted. The market on St. Mary’s Square is a riot of colors and sounds – vendors shouting, music from a nearby bar, and the occasional honk of a taxi. I found myself lingering by the Motława River, watching the boats glide past, the wind carrying a faint salty tang. If you’re in Gdańsk during the summer, the old town can get pretty crowded, but the mornings are quiet enough to enjoy a peaceful walk before the crowds rush in. Nighttime is nice too; the streetlamps cast a golden glow, and the noise drops to a low hum – perfect for a relaxed evening.

One small critique: the heating system can be uneven – the radiator in the living area sometimes feels like it’s still on cold mode even after you flip the switch. I had to pull a blanket over my feet, but it didn’t ruin the stay. And the elevator, while fast, does a bit of a jolt at the top floor – a little unsettling if you’re not used to it. On the upside, the staff are genuinely helpful; they recommended a hidden gem, a little bakery on Grzybowska Street, and even gave me a free bottle of local amber beer for the night (cheers to that).

Overall, Szeroka Old Town – BillBerry Apartments feels like a cozy nest right in the heart of Gdańsk. Whether you’re here for the history, the food, or just a quick break from the hustle, this place offers a relaxed vibe and a personal touch that you rarely find in chain hotels. I left feeling refreshed, with a suitcase full of memories and a promise to come back next summer. If you’re planning a trip, trust me – this is a spot that will feel like home from the moment you step through the door.

Apartments in Gdansk provide travelers with authentic local experiences, allowing them to explore traditional Polish markets and cook with fresh Baltic Sea specialties.

  Jättebra läge och lugnt, fint område. Frukost ingår inte☺️så vi åt ute.
  
  What could be improved: Vattnet i badrummet rann ut mot toaletten, vilket var besvärligt varje gång man duschade.Även i köket spreds vatten från kranen, vilket var besvärligt. I övrigt var allt jättebra. Tack!

  The apartment was lovely. It was really nicely furnished, very comfortable and had everything you could need for your stay. It was very clean and the beds were extremely comfortable.
