What is convenient - the hotel is right next to the railway "Warsaw-Central" is located between Marriott and Novatel, closer to Novatel).
It takes about 7 minutes to walk from the station. Wonderful lobby in the hotel, atrium, palm trees, nice design - very pleasing to the eye, it's great to sit there in the evening.

One day there was a wedding in a separate hall, but there was no noise. (In general, in the Old Town on the Town Hall Square in the church, on occasion it is interesting to see how the wedding takes place).

Maybe because of the palm trees, but a slight feeling of a resort hotel even arose))). The hotel is very worthy. Reception because of this a little stiff, but quite adequate.

Late check out at 14-00 (free) without any problems at the request did.

There was a complimentary bottle of mineral water in the room every day. Our room was on the top floor, with windows to the atrium (we asked for a quiet room when booking). I believe that rooms facing the avenue will not be very comfortable due to the noise from the street (it is busy around the clock).
The ceiling in the room, which we got, is perhaps rather low. Probably due to the fact that the room was on the last floor, the ceiling is slightly attic (slanted).
Standard room was small but comfortable.
The bed is comfortable. There is air conditioning (when you open the window, the air conditioner turns off).

The bathroom has a bathtub. The shower gel has a pleasant aroma (which happens infrequently).

There were two windows. Small in size. Both open up.

Our windows overlooked the courtyard (atrium) - so it was quiet (the hotel stands on a busy avenue, the very center of the city).
Leaving the hotel to the left is a little convenience store.

In the nearby Metropol (leaving, on the right around the corner) there is an exchange office with a good exchange rate (4.06zle, in August 2011).

We did not find the only best rate in the center (4.11), but in the center and in the Old Town everywhere it is even worse than 4.06.
Therefore, it is often more profitable to pay with a card everywhere (in any case, Raffeisen writes off zlotys from a euro card at a rate better than 4.11)
At the crossroads near the hotel (almost directly opposite) - metro Centrum, lots of trams, buses.
There, on the other side of the intersection: KFC, Pizza Hut (both take cards), both have free Wifi.
The hotel has free wifi only at the reception, unfortunately (you have to ask them for the password).

If you look at the entrance to the Pizza Hut, then on the left a street goes behind it, where there are many cafes that work in the late evening, you can eat there even after 23-00, and pay with a card.

You can get to the Old Town by a stop or two by tram or take a walk. It is convenient to get out at the picturesque Saski ogorod-Saxon Garden, and already through it, past the pond with ducks, the fountain and the Eternal Flame, walk to St. city ​ ​ across st. Krakow suburb.

There are no special claims to the hotel.

Is it about Wi-Fi (as I said, only in the lobby at the reception). It's not very convenient. But as I said in the lobby is very nice to sit. Under the chairs in the hall, sockets (220v) were found to connect the laptop.
Breakfast is not included in the room rate.
They didn’t have breakfast or lunch at the local cafe restaurant, somehow they didn’t find something particularly sensible there for sane money.
The closest option to have breakfast, as I said, is Pizza Hut and cafes on the street that goes to the left behind it. Or a food court in a shopping center near Warsaw Central.
There is also an "IlPatio" in the shopping center (Moreover, you can get a 10% discount with the Malin card). True, they don’t cook much in this particular ilPatio.

Of the slight inconveniences - you can get to the other side of the street only through underground passages. With heavy things, when you walk from the station (and it is on the other side) - this is not very convenient.
There are no ground crossings (but in the evening, when there are not so many cars, it is theoretically possible to cross). Therefore, despite the obvious proximity of the hotel to the station, if things are heavy, it is better to take a taxi (no matter how strange it may sound).
By the way, in the underground passage near the hotel there are mini-coffee shops and small pastry shops.

We booked a room from Friday to Monday. Because it's a weekend, it was relatively inexpensive: 740 PLN for 3 nights (that is, about 61 euros per night).
Weekdays are more expensive. Booked through Booking. com. com
