Apartments for rent in Gdańsk as short-term stays mean a kitchen and your own rhythm — not a year-long lease. Aim for walkable Old Town or Motława, clear check-in rules and a full price (cleaning, parking). Booking direct often beats Booking for the same address.

Short-term, not a classic lease
You want a weekend or week: online calendar, nightly rate, cleaning fee, guest limit. Not a 12-month flat lease with deposit.
Check cancellation, check-in time and whether self check-in works after 10 pm.
Location and space
City break: Old Town / Śródmieście. Quieter nights and parking: Motława / Długie Ogrody still walkable. Living room + bedroom beats a studio for 2+ nights.
Read the map, not only “Gdańsk centre” in the title.
Price and direct booking
Compare totals: nights + cleaning + parking vs hotel with breakfasts. Direct with the host often skips OTA commission.
StayHere: calendar, online payment, email confirmation — no middleman in messages.
How do short-term rentals differ from Airbnb?
Similar model; the channel differs. Direct with the host often means a lower total and faster contact.
How early to book?
Season and long weekends: 4–8 weeks. Off-season often 1–2 weeks is enough.
Do I need a car?
In the centre usually no. Driving? Look for parking or Motława / Długie Ogrody.
