About

Przystan Motlawa

Przystan Motlawa occupies a modern building on Tartaczna Street, a quiet lane a short stroll from Gdańsk's old town and the Motlawa River. The apartments are set up for independent stays: each has a kitchenette, dining table, and washing machine, with soundproofed rooms and parquet floors throughout.

The location is the real draw. The National Maritime Museum, Green Gate, and St. John's Church are all within a 10-minute walk, and the central square with its restaurants and bars is closer still. For active guests, the surrounding area offers canoeing, hiking, and horseback riding.

“I stayed three nights and found the apartment brand new in a handsome building. Beds were comfortable and the coffee was great. Having a small Żabka shop in the building was handy. The location was excellent for the river, old town, restaurants, and shopping. The owner communicated well and the 24-hour security desk made key pickup and luggage storage easy. A fantastic stay.”
