Aparthotel Nowy Świat 28

Hotel Description

You know what? I’ve stayed at a bunch of places along Nowy Świat, and this aparthotel actually gets it right in ways that surprised me. The location is honestly perfect if you want to be in the thick of Warsaw’s best street without paying those insane Old Town prices. I mean, you’re literally steps from the Royal Route – I could grab my morning coffee at one of those tiny cafes near the university and be back in my room in under five minutes. The building itself has this understated elegance that fits right into the neighborhood; it’s not trying too hard to be fancy, which I appreciate. When I checked in around 3 PM on a Thursday, the staff spoke excellent English and actually gave me useful tips about which tram lines to avoid during rush hour (trust me, this matters).

The rooms are what you’d expect from a solid 3-star place, but with some thoughtful touches that make the aparthotel concept work. Mine had a little kitchenette that was actually functional – not just a mini-fridge and a sad hot plate like some places. I ended up cooking breakfast a few times using ingredients from the Żabka downstairs, which saved me a decent amount of money over my week-long stay. The bed was comfortable enough, though the pillows were a bit soft for my taste, and the bathroom had good water pressure (always a gamble in older Warsaw buildings). What I really liked was how quiet it stayed at night, even though you’re on one of the city’s busiest streets. The windows must be pretty decent because I barely heard the trams rumbling by, and believe me, there are a lot of them.

Honestly, the 7.8 rating feels about right – it’s not going to blow your mind, but it delivers exactly what it promises without any unpleasant surprises. The WiFi worked perfectly for my work calls, which was crucial since I was there on business. Location-wise, you’re a quick walk to the Palace of Culture if that’s your thing, but more importantly, you’re surrounded by the kind of restaurants and bars where actual Varsovians hang out. I discovered this amazing pierogi place just two blocks down toward Plac Trzech Krzyży that I never would have found if I’d stayed in some tourist bubble near the castle. The only minor complaint I’d have is that housekeeping was a bit inconsistent – some days they’d refresh everything perfectly, other days it felt rushed. But for the price point and the neighborhood, I’d definitely book here again. It’s the kind of place that lets you feel like you’re living in Warsaw for a few days rather than just visiting it.

Reviews

• Very Good – Yuliya from Belarus – July 21, 2025 (8/10)

  Good location, but if you’re not a party person it could be noisy outside at night because of bars and pubs. But apartment provides with the earplugs.

• Wonderful – Elżbieta from Iceland – June 11, 2025 (9/10)

  Location!
  
  What could be improved: There is construction work just outside of the apartment. They start work very early in the morning so it may be annoying if you like to sleep longer.
  But the owner sent a message before we arrived so we knew about it

• Very Good – Grzegorz from Spain – April 29, 2025 (8/10)

  Great location, nice decoration, spacious and really comfortable bed! Walking dostanie to bars and restaurants.
  
  What could be improved: Apartment has really thin walls, what result in neighbours knocking to our doors and shouting at as becouse tv in the apartment was too loud.

• Just perfectly enough – Ax from Poland – February 26, 2025 (9/10)

  Fabulous property in a prime location, very comfortable bed and room facilities. The tv was great, perfect size for the room. Clean and neat, a perfect spot to stay in while exploring the city.
  
  What could be improved: There were a couple of things missing from the kitchen, like wine glasses or a bottle opener. Also the placement of the bed (in the middle of the room) wasn't very steady at night.

• Very Good – Karolina from Poland – January 26, 2025 (8/10)

  Very good central location. Fast communication with the owner. The apartment has a nice design. It was clean and comfortable. Overall, very pleasant stay.
  
  What could be improved: It's located next to popular bars, so if you're staying during the weekend, it will be noisy.

• Fabulous room view ! – Rong from Malaysia – January 10, 2025 (7/10)

  Centrally located, easily access with public bus or tram. Balcony is fabulous!
  
  What could be improved: Nope but be aware no lift and surrounded with bars.

• Good – Ketija from Lithuania – December 23, 2024 (9/10)

  Good location, easy to navigate and find.
  
  What could be improved: Even though the bathroom was nicely heater, the bedroom was cold due to the bedroom having only one radiator.

• Overall we were happy! Location is very good. – Olha from United Kingdom – November 26, 2024 (8/10)

  We stayed in Olive room. It’s in second floor (3rd) We wasnt realize from reviews how noisy it will be. So in the middle between buildings is some bars and sounds like disco with sub buffer. Luckily we was very tired and we had a nice sleep even without earplugs (was provided by property).
  Netflix was working. Towels, shampoo, shower gel are provided.
  
  What could be improved: Shower was very strong from the top, and shower cover need to be changed due to hygiene reasons

• Nice stay in Warsaw – Hristo from Bulgaria – August 6, 2024 (8/10)

  The place is very close to the Central Railway Station and 3 stops away from the National Stadium. It's also close to the Old Town of Warsaw. The bed was super comfortable so we slept well.
  
  What could be improved: We asked if it's possible to check-in early and we were asked to pay 20 PLN per hour. So we paid 40 PLN extra for check-in at 13:00 instead of 15:00. This may be a thing in Poland, I don't know, but I haven't seen it anywhere before (and I travel a lot, like really a lot), so it was a bit annoying. Especially as we had already paid 157 EUR for one night in the studio (Prices were super increased due to Taylor Swift's concerts on these dates). Also the bar just below the terrace is super noisy at night (but there were ear plugs provided by the hosts).

• Wonderful – Chmiel from Poland – July 15, 2024 (9/10)

  Location, decor & price.
  
  What could be improved: It was super warm outside and had to keep the window open – and because it’s in a busy area it was rather loud
