Apt * Stella

Apt * Stella Overview

Apt * Stella sits right on Marii Curie-Skłodowskiej, smack dab in Śródmieście, so you’re literally walking to the Old Town in a few minutes – honestly, it feels like living in the heart of the city. The front desk was a pair of friendly locals who didn’t bother with a formal tour of the amenities; they just handed me a key and pointed out the nearest tram stop (line 2 heads straight to the Market Square) and the small, often overlooked parking spot behind the building. I mean, parking in Wrocław can be a nightmare, but that little space was a lifesaver. The check‑in was quick, no long lines, and I was in my room before the city’s chatter even hit the windows.

The room itself was a clean, 3‑star kind of place – the kind of place where the wall art feels like it was chosen by a local artist rather than a hotel chain. The bed was unexpectedly comfy, with a mattress that had just enough spring to give you that “I can’t believe how good this is” feeling. The bathroom had a shower that sprayed water with a gentle, almost soothing rhythm – I swear the sound of the water was like a tiny waterfall, which was surprisingly calming after a day of walking. The décor was minimal but thoughtful: a small desk that’s perfect for jotting down travel notes, a coffee maker that fills your room with the smell of fresh brew, and a window that opens onto a street where you can hear the distant chatter of a café and the clink of glasses from a beer hall a few blocks away. I found it a bit noisy at night, but the walls are thicker than you’d expect, so you can actually close your eyes and drop off. The only real critique? The Wi‑Fi password was a bit of a puzzle – you have to guess the code from the small card on the desk, so it’s a minor inconvenience but a small price to pay for staying in such a vibrant spot.

Walking out of the door, I took a quick detour to the Wrocław Zoo, which is practically a stone’s throw away. The zoo’s entrance is just a short stroll and you can spot the kids playing in the gardens. I also wandered down to the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist – the bell tower’s sound is like a hymn echoing across the city, and the interior is a quiet sanctuary after the bustle of the day. If you’re into arts, pop over to the Hala Stulecia; it’s a bit farther but the tram makes it easy. The best part of staying here is that you’re not stuck in a tourist trap – you’re right where locals hang out, so you can find a good coffee shop with the best latte art on the corner of Poniatowskiego Street. I thought about staying longer, but the hotel’s proximity to the tram and the quiet of the rooms made it a perfect base for exploring. In short, offers that sweet spot between convenience and charm – it’s a solid 3‑star stay that feels like a genuine Wrocław experience.

  Beautiful and cozy accommodation in a perfect location (very near to ZOO). Everything was prepared at an excellent level. Super communication with the owner.

• Lisa from Ireland (10/10)

  Very clean and fresh – the hosts thought of everything- milk tea coffee , towels toiletries all provided- I called as I was unable to get in ( by the way totally my fault – I misread the instructions) hosts answered call straight away and answered my query instantly

• Janet from France (9/10)

  Spacious and beautiful apartment, well-decorated. Beds are comfortable. 15-min walk to the Congress center (we were there for a conference) but we also enjoyed going to the park and zoo. Tram and bus are a few steps away. The host was very responsive and helpful.

• Dariusz from Poland (8/10)

  It was exceptionally clean, host provided all amenities, including milk, coffee, tee, soup, shower gel, hairdryiner, etc. It is very well located if you would like to stay close to the University of Wroclaw, Politechnika, Medical University. I believe that the hosts are very nice people but unfortunately, I also believe that this is not the case for neighbors so your stay might be disrupted.

• Peter from Slovakia (7/10)

  Large apartment with 2 bedrooms. All clean. The modern bathroom contrasts with the old furniture in the rooms. Nice interior for lovers of antiques but overal not really cozy apartment.

• Roman from Poland (10/10)

  Bardzo profesjonalne podejście do klienta.

• Dorota from Poland (10/10)

  Lokalizacja(wszędzie blisko a jednocześnie spokojny zakątek). Przestronność i wygoda apartamentu. Mimo 38 stopni na zewnątrz w apartamencie było bardzo przyjemnie.

• Radosław from Poland (10/10)

  Wielkość pomieszczeń, pełne wyposażenie z lodówką, piekarnikiem, czajnikiem itd. Duża łazienka, czysto.

• Natalia from Poland (9/10)

  Świetna lokalizacja, czysty i przestronny apartament, świetny kontakt z właścicielem. Wszystko super. Idealny dla 4 osób 🙂 Pieszo można dojść do ZOO, Hali Stulecia czy Mostu Zwierzynieckiego – warto wybrać się na spacer. Przy ulicy miejski płatny parking (tylko w dni robocze), ale byłam mile zaskoczona ilością wolnych miejsc.

• Inga from Poland (10/10)

  Bardzo czysto, komfortowo, apartament bardzo przestronny, kontakt z gospodarzami bez zastrzeżeń. Lokalizacja dogodna do zwiedzania miasta, a w pobliżu restauracje i sklepy.
