Apartment by Gustav

Apartment by Gustav Overview

Apartment by Gustav is tucked in the heart of Śródmieście, right on Księcia Witolda, and honestly, it feels like a secret spot that only locals and a few savvy travelers know about. When I arrived on a rainy Thursday, the front desk was already buzzing with a mix of tourists and regulars, and the staff had a friendly, almost conspiratorial vibe—like they were passing along the best hidden gems. Check‑in was smooth; they used a keyless entry system that you can get on the app, so no need to wait for the bellboy—just a few taps, a quick scan, and you’re inside. I noticed a small sign in Polish that read “Parking podwórkowy” (courtyard parking) right outside, which is a lifesaver if you’re driving. It’s not the most modern parking, but it’s definitely a good spot for city cars and you won’t have to circle the block for a spot.

The apartment itself is a clean, 4‑star slice of comfort. Inside, the décor leans toward Scandinavian minimalism with a few Polish touches—think handmade ceramic mugs and a framed photo of the medieval Wrocław skyline. The bed is surprisingly plush; the linens feel like a soft, breathable fabric that’s rarely found in city hotels. I spent most mornings here sipping a latte from the espresso machine, listening to the distant rumble of trams and the occasional squeak on the cobblestones outside. The kitchen is compact but fully equipped; I made a quick breakfast and the space feels surprisingly open, thanks to the high ceilings and the natural light pouring in through the window that faces the quiet alley near Piłsudskiego Street. If you’re a night owl, be aware that the area can be a bit noisy after midnight—there’s a bar a block away that’s always bustling, and you can hear the clink of glasses from the balcony.

One of the best things about staying here is how close you’re to the city’s cultural spots. From the apartment, you can stroll down to the Old Town in about fifteen minutes, or hop on the tram that takes you straight to the Hala Stulecia and the Szczytnicki Park—perfect for an afternoon walk. I also found that the local bakery on Krakowska Street is just a five‑minute walk away and the smell of freshly baked paczki in the morning is practically a daily ritual that locals swear by. If you’re planning to visit during the summer festival season, the area gets pretty lively, but it’s still manageable—you’ll hear the music, but the noise doesn’t bleed into the apartment because of the good soundproofing. For a quieter night, just knock on the door (the staff have a knock‑on‑door policy) and they’ll let you in without any fuss. Overall, feels like a home base that balances the buzz of the city with a cozy, personal touch that you won’t find in a generic chain. If you’re looking for a place that feels both local and comfortable, this place is definitely worth checking out.

Reviews of Apartment by Gustav

• Olha from Poland (10/10)

  Without any doubts this is the best apartment we have ever stayed in: perfectly located, quiet , clean, modern and designed to absolute comfort of guests with attention to each detail that makes your stay comfortable. Property owner is very loyal and swift in response if you have questions.
  Before you go the nearest shop, we advise you to check what is available in the kitchen, because coffee, tea, sugar, etc. are already there.
  And you can enjoy watching Netflix in the evening, that has been a nice surprise to us 🤗

• Mgilles from France (9/10)

  Un très bel appartement neuf, parfaitement situé, contre une rue en impasse au bord du fleuve à quelques centainu Rynekes de mètres du rynek. Un parking à moins de 100m à pied (un peu plus en voiture)

• Natalia from Poland (10/10)

  W apartamencie znajdowały się wszystkie najpotrzebniejsze rzeczy do codziennego użytku. Kontakt z właścicielem przez booking na najwyższym poziomie – bardzo szybkie odpowiedzi na wiadomości, plus ogromne udogodnienia – wcześniejsze zameldowanie i późniejsze wymeldowanie. Telewizor z dużym wyborem kanałów, jest również Netflix, YouTube itp. Idealna lokalizacja – spokojnie, bardzo blisko Starego Miasta, obok jest Żabka czy inne warte uwagi punkty gastronomiczne. Jak wrócimy do Wrocławia to tylko tutaj.
