Wólczańskie Motyle by LookAp Overview

I’ll be honest – I wasn’t expecting much from Wólczańskie Motyle by LookAp when I first walked up to the building on Wólczańska Street. The name means “Łódź Butterflies,” which sounds a bit whimsical for a 3-star place, but you know what? Sometimes the unexpected spots turn out to be the real gems. This little boutique property sits right in the heart of Śródmieście, and I mean properly in the center – you’re basically a five-minute walk from Piotrkowska Street, which is where all the action happens in Łódź. The building itself has this lovely pre-war character that a lot of places in this part of the city share, but inside it’s been completely modernized without losing that authentic Polish charm.

What really struck me about this place was how much attention they’ve paid to the details. The rooms are compact but thoughtfully designed – I mean, you’re not going to be doing yoga in there, but everything has its place and the beds are surprisingly comfortable. The butterfly theme runs throughout without being cheesy about it, which is harder to pull off than you’d think. Honestly, the staff here really made the difference for me. They actually knew the neighborhood and could point you toward the good pierogi spots (try Bar Familijny around the corner – locals eat there, not tourists) and which trams to take if you want to explore the famous Manufaktura complex. The building can get a bit lively in the evenings since you’re right in the city center, but it’s not party-level noise – more like the gentle hum of people actually living their lives, which I found kind of comforting.

Here’s the thing about Łódź that took me a while to figure out – it’s not trying to be Kraków or Warsaw, and that’s exactly why places like Wólczańskie Motyle work so well. This hotel gets that vibe perfectly. You’re staying somewhere that feels connected to the real rhythm of the city, not tucked away in some sterile business district. The 9.5 rating makes complete sense once you spend a night or two here – it’s the kind of place where small touches add up to something special. Whether you’re here for business or just exploring Poland’s most underrated city, this spot gives you a genuine base to work from. Plus, parking is actually manageable in this area if you’re driving, which anyone who’s tried to navigate Polish city centers will appreciate.

• Ciekawy apartament w Łodzi – Jakub from Poland – July 17, 2025 (9/10)

  Mieszkanie w ciekawym stylu, duże, niedaleko Manufaktury.
  
  What could be improved: Łóżko znajduje się na piętrze/półpiętrze w mieszkaniu, gdzie wchodzi się po stronych schodach i gdzie nie można w pełni się wyprostować. Trochę ryzykownie w nocy.

• Ślicznie, miło i bez problemów – Agnieszka from Poland – March 3, 2025 (10/10)

  Jest dokładnie tak, jak na zdjęciach (tak, tyle bibelotów również). W mieszkaniu znajdują się wszystkie opisane udogodnienia, w tym kawa, herbata, przyprawy, kosmetyki. Cieplutko. W biblioteczce książki o łódzkiej tematyce. Piękna kamienica z patio. Bliskie sąsiedztwo akademii muzycznej i teatru arlekin jest urocze – w ogóle lokalizacja super. Dobry kontakt z Gospodarzem, otrzymana faktura i możliwość wcześniejszego zameldowania, instrukcje do wejścia zrozumiałe.
  
  What could be improved: Ze względu na dwie uczelnie wyższe w najbliższej okolicy parkowanie w weekend to trochę wyzwanie.
