Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to ASKI New Powiśle Copernicus Apartment on Leszczyńska Street, you immediately sense you’ve found something special in Warsaw’s bustling Śródmieście district. This four-star property sits right in the heart of the city — and I mean truly in the heart, not just marketing speak. The building has that refined Warsaw charm that makes you feel like you’re staying somewhere with real character, not just another generic hotel room. The attention to detail throughout the space reflects a commitment to guest comfort and satisfaction.
Location That Actually Matters
Here’s what I love about this spot — you’re literally steps away from everything that makes Warsaw worth visiting. The Copernicus Science Centre is practically next door (hence the name, I suppose), and the Vistula riverfront is right there for those evening walks that couples seem to adore. You know what’s really convenient though? They’ve got free private parking on site, which honestly is a godsend in this part of the city. I’ve stayed in central Warsaw before where finding parking was a nightmare, so this detail actually matters more than you might think. The location truly enhances the overall experience of staying in this vibrant neighborhood.
The Apartment Experience
What sets this place apart is that you’re getting a proper apartment, not just a hotel room with a mini-fridge. The space feels like someone’s well-appointed Warsaw flat — thoughtfully furnished but not trying too hard to impress. There’s enough room to actually unpack and settle in, which makes all the difference if you’re staying more than a night or two. The kitchen setup means you can grab groceries from the local markets and have breakfast at your own pace, though honestly, with all the great cafés in Powiśle, you might not use it much. This flexibility transforms your stay into a genuine home-away-from-home experience.
The Neighborhood Vibe
Powiśle has this interesting energy — it’s sophisticated without being stuffy, and you’re surrounded by locals going about their daily lives rather than just tourist crowds. The area has really come into its own in recent years, with excellent restaurants and that relaxed riverside atmosphere that makes Warsaw feel more livable than just visitable. You can walk to the Old Town in about fifteen minutes, but you’re also close to the more contemporary side of the city that many visitors miss entirely. The neighborhood perfectly balances cultural attractions with everyday authenticity.
Why Guests Love It
That 9.2 rating isn’t just numbers — this place genuinely delivers on what travelers actually want. The location score of 9.4 speaks for itself, and couples particularly seem to appreciate how the area balances urban convenience with romantic potential. You’re getting the independence of an apartment with the reliability of a well-managed property, plus that rare combination of being central but not chaotic. It’s the kind of place where you can imagine living in Warsaw for a week, not just passing through. Every element works together to create a memorable and satisfying stay.

Perfect location. Warsaw university, Vistula river , holy cross church are within 5 -10 min walk, a shopping mall and supermarket, a Vietnam pho nearby, super convenient.
The size of the place is great , all facilities are there. Easy check in process ,host is very responsive.
Although I did think it was in the Old Town by the map on Booking, it was a very nice location in a nice neighborhood, with a great balcony.

We loved everything and for sure will come back
Cute interior. Underground parking space. Near to Copernicus museum.
The staff and location were great. The apartment is fully equipped and comfortably fits two adults and two children.
The parking was secure. We were happy with the size of the apartment and the amount of dishes and pans in the kitchen. The street in front of the building was quiet and there was very little traffic. We also didn`t hear any noise from the neighbors. Shopping was nearby - 2 streets away - and we could reach alot of places on foot. We also really appreciated the laundry machine/tumbler in the kitchen.
Location is great, quiet area, next to a park, easy, 10-15 walk to the old town. 25 minutes walk to the central station.
Flat is very clean, has every you need for a short stay, for us it was just a base to stay and shower and sleep for the a couple of nights. It has a cafe near by which opens at 9pm for breakfast. Otherwise, bring your own breakfast if you want to eat before.
Enough space, nice and clean accommodation, comfortable and clean bathroom. Ability to park in the garage was a big plus. Good location to reach Copernicus Centre and the centre of the city. We would stay there again.
