Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to City Center Apartment Elektoralna by Noclegi Renters on a busy Warsaw afternoon, I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect from an apartment-style hotel. But you know what? This four-star property surprised me right from the start. The building sits right on Elektoralna Street in Śródmieście, and I mean literally in the thick of everything — you can hear the city humming around you, but in a good way that makes you feel connected to Warsaw‘s energy.
Location That Actually Matters
Here’s the thing about staying in the real heart of Warsaw — it’s not just marketing speak. I could walk to the Old Town in about fifteen minutes, and the Palace of Culture and Science was practically around the corner. What I really loved was having actual neighborhood life happening right outside. There’s a small café two blocks down where locals grab their morning coffee, and you’ll find yourself naturally falling into the rhythm of the area. The metro station is close enough that you don’t need to plan your day around transportation, which honestly makes such a difference when you’re trying to see everything.
The Space Itself
The room — well, it’s more like a proper apartment setup — felt surprisingly spacious for central Warsaw. I appreciated having a real kitchen area where I could actually prepare simple meals instead of eating out for every single meal. The furnishings are modern without being sterile, and there’s enough storage space that you can actually unpack your suitcase properly. The bathroom was well-designed too, with good water pressure and plenty of hot water even during peak hours.
Daily Life and Practical Details
What struck me most was how the place works for different types of travelers. I watched couples heading out for romantic dinners (and honestly, the location gets an 8.0 rating from couples for good reason), while business travelers were clearly using the space as a temporary home base. The Wi-Fi actually works reliably, which you can’t always count on, and the building stays reasonably quiet despite being in such a central spot. Parking can be a bit of a challenge in this area — I mean, it’s downtown Warsaw — but there are options nearby if you’re driving.
Why Guests Keep Coming Back
After spending several nights here, I get why this place scores so well with visitors. It’s that rare combination of being right where you want to be without feeling like you’re staying in a tourist bubble. The staff knows the neighborhood well and can point you toward things you wouldn’t find in guidebooks. Plus, having that apartment-style setup means you can live a bit more like a local instead of just passing through. The 8.2 rating feels about right — it’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but it delivers exactly what most travelers actually need in a really solid way.

Great location
Beautifull area
Central but a quiet neighbourhood
What could be improved: complicated to get a response from the host.
Dirty bathroom sink.
Hair and bad smell on the pillow cases.
Dust in the rooms and in cupboards.
Dirty cups, glasses, cooking pot and frying pan.
No dish soap. No kitchen cloth 😶
Rust on the electric kettle.
After complicated attempts to comunicate with several reprasentatives of the owner of the apartment ,and no result, I bought some new dishes and items that were either missing or in bad condition.
The apartment is modern and is located in a lovely area of Warsaw but I had to spend much time cleaning and buying new equipment.
4th floor without elevator.
Warszawskie noce...
Apartament przestronny, dość cichy, na 4-tym piętrze bez windy. Wygodna łazienka z dużym prysznicem. Wyposażenie wystarczające na kilkudniowy pobyt. W okolicy nie było problemu z parkowaniem, poza tym do metra i autobusów również jest niedaleko.
Great location, great apartment.
The area is great. We should know; we lived there for 2 years :)
Food and restaurants are good value, especially at Hala Mirowska. Restauracja ukraińska U Sióstr is is a Ukrainian restaurant where 2 people can eat for about £10.
What could be improved: The cost of staying in Warsaw is more expensive. But it is the same in the UK.
Wonderful
Idealna lokalizacja - tuż obok Ogrodu Saskiego, blisko na Starówkę oraz do centrum (Pałac Kultury, itd.), do tego bardzo cicha okolica. Bardzo dobrze działający Internet. Standard mieszkania może nie jest najwyższy ale zdecydowanie stosunek cena/jakość jest na bardzo wysokim poziomie.
Spacious & cozy
Cozy, spacious, has full set of appliances, stylish, comfortable place to have rest and to work
Wonderful
Very nice flat in a great location (centrally located, close to public transport but still quiet). Newly renovated (except for the floor) and furnished. Very spacious kitchen with a lot of equipment. Comfortable bathroom. Big beds. Easy to find place to park close to the building (however it is paid). I would stay there again.
What could be improved: It would be nice to have some curtains/ blinds in the kitchen. Good knives and extra trash bags would be a plus. Box for the keys should be bigger - you need to spend a lot of time to be able to squeeze the keys in it.
Fair
The location and quick email response.
What could be improved: The property gets really hot, we stayed in the summer. The shower blocks and causes water to overflow after a few days of use. Not the best for long stays as it had supplies for one to two nights.
There were problems with the payments which meant I had to make a bank transfer (didn't have a problem with other bookings for my stay).
