Where to stay in Gądów Mały
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
Gądów Mały is a place to sleep between errands. Rooms are few among its estates, so most travellers base themselves in central Wrocław and reach the district by road along Elbląska Street. The quietest corners sit near the Wrocław New Jewish Cemetery, and street names such as Lotnicza and Szybowcowa recall the airfield the estate replaced.
