City Center Aparthotel Chmielna by Noclegi Renters

Hotel Description

Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect from City Center Aparthotel Chmielna when I first booked it – the name’s a bit of a mouthful, right? But you know what, this place actually surprised me in the best way. It’s tucked right on Nowy Świat, which if you don’t know Warsaw, is basically the main artery that cuts through the heart of the city. I mean, you’re literally steps away from everything that matters – the Royal Castle, Old Town, all those little cafés that locals actually go to (not just the tourist traps). What I loved most was how it felt like having your own little apartment rather than being stuck in some sterile hotel room. The kitchenette was actually functional – I’m talking real plates, not those flimsy things you usually get, and the fridge was big enough to store groceries from the Żabka downstairs. The bed was surprisingly comfortable too, though I’ll be honest, the pillows were a bit too soft for my taste, but that’s probably just me being picky.

The location really can’t be beat if you want to experience Warsaw like someone who actually lives there. You’re walking distance from Krakowskie Przedmieście – that gorgeous tree-lined street where university students hang out and street musicians play on weekends. Plus, you’ve got the metro station at Nowy Świat-Uniwersytet just a few minutes away, which makes getting to places like Wilanów Palace or even the airport pretty straightforward. I spent most evenings just wandering around the neighborhood, grabbing pierogi from this tiny place called Zapiecek (there’s one right around the corner), or having a beer at one of those basement bars that you’d never find unless you knew where to look. The staff at the aparthotel were genuinely helpful too – not in that overly rehearsed way, but like they actually cared about making sure you had a good stay. Check-in was smooth, they spoke decent English, and when I had trouble figuring out the washing machine (it was all in Polish, obviously), someone came up to show me how it worked without making me feel like an idiot.

I will say, if you’re someone who needs absolute silence to sleep, you might want to pack earplugs. This is the city center after all, and Nowy Świat can get a bit lively, especially on Friday and Saturday nights when the bars empty out. But honestly, I found the urban buzz kind of charming – it felt authentic, you know? The building itself has that classic Warsaw vibe, sort of elegant but not pretentious, and my room had these tall windows that let in tons of natural light during the day. The whole experience felt less like staying in a hotel and more like borrowing a friend’s apartment in the coolest part of town. For the price point and that location, I’d definitely stay here again – it’s one of those places that just gets Warsaw right.

  What could be improved: Noise proof not so good, heard all the party all night long

• Wonderful – Cristian from Romania – June 20, 2025 (9/10)

  The room was very nice. If you need, there is a washing machine and iron. There are many places to eat nearby. You can get there very easily from the airport just by a bus.
  
  What could be improved: I would have liked to have a soap and toothbrush holder next to the sink and a holder to put the shower gel in the shower stall.

• Wonderful – Pool from Poland – June 8, 2025 (9/10)

  The location, the bed is very comfy
  
  What could be improved: It’s not easy to find the entrance and there’s a lot of drunk people around

• Nice place – Memli from Kosovo – June 8, 2025 (9/10)

  Everything you need is there, so the location is perfect.
  
  What could be improved: I didn’t like the loud noise that lasted until early in the morning. It was indeed Friday, but I couldn’t sleep because of the noise until morning.

• Wonderful – Isadora from Portugal – May 20, 2025 (9/10)

  I had a fantastic stay! The location was incredible – very close to everything, and right in front of the accommodation there’s a supermarket and a 24-hour mini market, which was super convenient. The beds were comfortable, and the place was very well-equipped with everything I needed.
  
  What could be improved: I honestly don’t have any negative points. I highly recommend it and would definitely stay here again!

• Apartment 10, Noclegi 10, Booking.com 0. – Glynis from United Kingdom – April 1, 2025 (9/10)

  I like that this property feels like home and has everything I need.
  
  What could be improved: The wifi is not strong enough and keeps dropping out or you can't get into it at all. It used to be good, but now it only has two bars at best. Also, This time I had no chat link for Noclegi and had things I needed to speak to them about. The contact information that Booking.com gave me did not work. And I couldn't get through by email either as that was only through Booking.com and kept bouncing back at me As well as that, Booking.com failed to pass on important emails from Noclegi, which ended up that I came very close to having my apartment cancelled. Thankfully it was only because they decided to phone me, that it got sorted out. But the whole situation caused me a lot of distress. This was the final straw with Booking.com.

• Wonderful – Pavlo from Germany – March 29, 2025 (9/10)

  excellent location, great Appartment with everything needed. Very clean. Easy to commute
  
  What could be improved: payment process is odd
