Thedynamically developing economy and the huge influx of foreign concerns in Gdansk contribute to the large increase in visitors from all over Poland each year. Along with new corporations deciding to open their branches in the Tri-City area, it is Gdansk that enjoys the greatest popularity among the visitors. The city despite many years of deeply rooted traditions becomes more open to the Western investors, hence it generates great popularity not only among commercial premises but above all among the rental market of apartments. Gdansk hosts new students and corporate employees every year. Most of whom have a permanent relationship with the city. Renting apartments is becoming not only a short-term solution but a long-term decision that generates more investments. If you are considering renting an apartment in the seaside capital, Gdansk will definitely become a place for you!
As mentioned at the beginning, Gdansk has one of the widest offers of apartments for rent in Poland. The dependence comes down to the location, type of buildings, and furnishing of the apartment itself. Students and employees of nearby corporations can count on beautiful studios (25m2) in the city center and sometimes in its suburbs. To families with children or people who value comfort, Gdańsk offers much larger areas, 3-bedroom flats, usually with a kitchen annex of (50m2) in its less frequented neighborhoods.
It can be safely assumed that the price of renting apartments in Gdansk decreases with the distance from its center. As in every major city, it is the city center that is appreciated the most. Despite the older buildings and the surrounding noise, the prices of smaller premises located near Motlawa will definitely exceed those much larger outside the city center. For people looking for comfort for many years and for those for whom a few minutes by bus would not make difference, I would definitely recommend apartments for rent in the Zaspa and Oliwa district or the aforementioned Wrzeszcz. Flats in Orunia, sometimes referred to as the bedroom of Gdansk, are less popular, but thanks to its lower popularity, their local housing prices are becoming extremely attractive.
Oliwa is a base of prestigious apartments and houses that provide not only a sense of comfort but also the possibility of communing with culture. Within a few years, the district has grown up with beautiful shopping malls, wonderful restaurants, popular pubs, cinemas, and a business center, which houses some of the largest corporations in the world. Oliwa is the best choice for combining peace and quiet with great opportunities offered by the center, located less than 8 km away.
Chełm, a district historically known as Nowa Gorka. It is one of the most densely populated districts with a relatively small area in Gdansk. Due to its localization (close to the city center), it became extremely popular with the locals. Its current shape was created recently, in 2018, by a resolution of the City Council. The close proximity of Gdansk Srodmiescie gives a chance to the pursuit of entertainment or culture, hence the growing popularity of apartments for rent in that area. Chełm is a small, attractive district, extremely popular among people working in nearby corporations and young students.
The thousand-year history of Gdansk, like the history of many other cities, is filled with ups and downs. Over the centuries, Poland and Prussia fought for the city, it was under the influence of the Soviets and even the Napoleonic army. During this turmoil, the drive for wealth and self-determination was always strong, and the past made Gdansk the cradle of a new historic movement: Solidarnosc
During the first partition of Poland, the Prussian king, Frederick II, imposed an embargo on Gdansk, which resulted in the loss of trade privileges and separation from satellite cities. However, Napoleon Bonaparte, after defeating the Prussian army, made Gdansk a Free City. The Congress of Vienna defined new borders in 1815 and Gdansk returned to Prussia. In 1920, according to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty, Gdansk became a Free City again. In 1939, despite the heroic struggle in Westerplatte and the resistance of the Polish Post, it was annexed to the Third Reich. During World War II, it was bombed by the English, and destroyed by Soviet troops during the liberation. 124 thou. The Germans living in the city were forced to leave it.
Visiting the capital of the Pomeranian Voivodeship is an amazing adventure each time. With its over a thousand years of history, traditions embedded in the city and maritime ambience, Gdańsk stands out among other cities. Regardless of whether we are here for the first or tenth time, we will always discover something new or different or we will be delighted to the limit.
A walk along the Motława River, where the first Gdańsk ports were built and the so-called Granary Island, is an indispensable departure element. The more that we have a combination of tradition and modernity here. Old townhouses on one side bow to modern buildings and glass hotels. And all with taste and taste. Amazing view.
Going further with the historical spirit, it is worth seeing the Gdańsk Shipyard, entering the new viewpoint on the M3 Crane and walking along the designated route in the Imperial Shipyard, culminating in robots coming out of the water - shipwrecked people on the Motława shore. It is currently the most famous art installation in Gdańsk.
For those who want to relax by the sea with the sound of the waves of the Baltic Sea, Gdańsk offers golden, clean and beautiful beaches. The city has as many as seven guarded swimming areas, including two on Sobieszewska Island: Jelitkowo, Jelitkowo Klipper, Molo Brzeźno, Dom Zdrojowy Brzeźno, Stogi, Sobieszewo and Orle.
The city can also be admired during walks. It is worth going to Wzgrze Pachołek or Gradowa Gra from where there is a view of the Gdańsk panorama and the shipyard areas. However, we will see beautiful greenery in the Oliwa Park. Here, among the tree-lined alleys, we will find solace and rest from the hustle and bustle of the city. There are, among others, waiting for us Whisper Grottoes, Oliwa Stream waters forming a waterfall, Japanese Garden and Bukowa Aleja.
Gdańsk is undoubtedly one of the most popular destinations for weekend trips and more. It is a city that is open to the sea, the world and people. It is impossible to list all its attractions. We know, however, that after intensive sightseeing or a full day of sunbathing, it is worth relaxing in the BillBerry apartments.

A friend and I will be traveling at least three weeks this September in Poland, spending 2 to 7 nights in various cities. Has anyone stayed in Airbnb's in Gdansk, Warsaw or Krakow? I would love to hear about your Airbnb experiences, and what you think are
the advantages and disadvantages of Airbnb's vs hotels.
I only tried Airbnb once. We walked out and lost our money. Since then we use VRBO a division of HomeAway. I am staying 6 nights in Warsaw this September and am currently deciding which one to stay at in Krakow. I always choose one with a washer so we have clean clothes. I like having the space and a kitchen. Not that I cook. But sometimes nice to do take out after a long day. Or heat baked goods. I have never been disappointed using them. Probably done so at least a dozen times. I do a mix of hotels and VRBO. We will also be in Poland for 3 weeks in September also. Staying at a hotel in Toruń and Gdansk.
In Krakow, we stayed in the Venetian House Aparthotel ( -
house.com) which had a full kitchen. Not the cheapest place to stay, but literally right in the middle of the old town square. We had a room that opened onto the square. There is a 24 hour grocery store almost diagonal on the other side of the square too (Biedronka, Rynek Głwny 34).
I have visited all three of the listed cities. We stayed in an apt in Warsaw in the old town. This was prior to the AirB&B, ie 2001. No problems, no complaints, very satisfactory, stayed 4-5 nights. The Mrs wanted that and handled all the details to reserve that apt.
I found hotels in Poland to be quite inexpensive and I much prefer staying in a place that offers a good breakfast and English speaking assistance with touring or whatever if needed. I normally travel solo so Air BnB type accommodations would be more of a hassle and that would mean cooking and doing dishes whilst on holiday - that's NOT going to happen!
Coincidentally, I just tried an AirBnB for the first time in Gdansk and had a strange experience. I'm not sure if it's a fluke or if it's common. Our schedule worked out so that we were there on the weekend and we were a group of 4 so the hotels were sold out or pretty expensive. I looked at the pictures, amenities, and reviews on AirBnB and thought I made a good choice. When we actually got to the apartment, it was pretty clear that it was not the apartment shown. No wifi, 6 more beds than expected and definitely not "sparkling clean" as described. Called the host and she said she had accidentally overbooked the original apartment. She apologized and offered a refund if we could find another place. She said she had also asked some of her colleagues and they weren't able to help out either. It was a pretty busy weekend, we had no wifi in the room so after a few attempts just decided to stay there rather than spend our time looking. I did request a partial refund and got enough so that it was a fair price. The beds were all clean and comfortable, the bathroom was OK and the location on Ogarna street was great. But we all looked longingly at the Hampton Inn whenever we were near it. I think it will be a long time before I use AirBnB again. We got a private room in the OkiDoki Old Town Hostel in Warsaw and loved it.
