For a taste of Old Gdańsk check into Dom Schumannów, a quirky hotel/guest house run by and set inside the building that houses the offices of the PTTK tourist service. Located next to the Neptun fountain guests have the chance to see what is must be like to live behind the grand gabled facades of Długa. Sure there’s flatscreen TVs, wifi internet and kettles, but the emphasis here is on the past, and that’s apparent in the furnishings: vintage switchhook telephones stand next to wood carved beds and other pre-war relics.
