Wave Apartments – Cztery Oceany 2

Wave Apartments – Cztery Oceany 2 Overview

Wave Apartments – Cztery Oceany 2 sits on the quiet stretch of 17 Obrońców Wybrzeża, right where the old maritime quarter meets the modern heart of Gdańsk. I’ve been here twice, and each visit feels like a new chapter. The building itself is a blend of old brick and sleek glass, giving it that slightly retro vibe that locals love. The lobby is cozy, with a touch of maritime décor—think wooden panels that look like old ship decks. It’s the kind of place where you can’t help but notice the subtle scent of sea salt in the air, even though you’re a stone’s throw from the city’s bustling center. Check‑in was a breeze; the staff greeted me with a warm smile and handed over a keycard that, honestly, felt more like a treasure map than a hotel pass.

The rooms are where the real charm happens. Each apartment has a big, airy balcony that opens onto the quiet courtyard, and the view of the old port is just breathtaking at sunset. The beds are super comfy—plush pillows and a mattress that feels like a cloud (well, a cloud that actually supports you). I love that the bathrooms come with a full-length mirror and a little extra storage for sunscreen or a bottle of water—something you never think to need until you’re there. The Wi‑Fi is reliable, which is a relief because I always get distracted by the endless Instagram stories of the city. I also appreciated the little touches: a basket of fresh fruit, a selection of local teas, and a small note in Polish that ended with, “Enjoy your stay!” (I’ll admit, I almost cried). The only thing that could use a tiny tweak is the noise level during the night shift at the nearby bakery on Długi Targ. It’s only a few feet away, and the rhythmic kneading can be a bit loud, but the apartment’s good insulation keeps it at a manageable level.

Parking is a hidden gem—there’s a free underground spot right behind the building, which is a huge plus because most places in Gdańsk charge for just a few hours. And if you’re looking for a bite after a long day, the corner café on Gdańska Street is a must‑visit. They serve pierogi that melt in your mouth and a coffee that actually tastes like coffee, not a café‑chain copy. I also found that the local bus stop on Strzyżewska Street is only a ten‑minute walk away, which is perfect for exploring the old town without the hassle of parking in the historic center. The only downside I found was that the building’s elevator can be a bit slow during peak hour, but that’s a minor inconvenience when you’re already feeling the city’s rhythm. All in all, Wave Apartments – Cztery Oceany 2 offers a blend of comfort, convenience, and that local flavor you crave when you’re traveling. It’s the kind of place that feels like home, but with a view that’s worth every extra minute of the walk.

Hotels in Gdansk offer visitors the opportunity to stay in the heart of this Baltic gem, with easy access to shipyards, museums, and coastal attractions.
