DeLux15 – Apartament Chmielna

Hotel Description

Honestly, when I first walked into DeLux15 on Chmielna, I wasn’t expecting much from a 3-star place in this part of Warsaw – but you know what? This little apartment hotel completely surprised me. The location is actually perfect if you want to be in the thick of things without dealing with the tourist chaos around the Old Town. Chmielna Street has this great energy – it’s got that authentic Warsaw vibe where you’ll see locals grabbing coffee at the corner café in the morning and the street comes alive with a mix of shops and restaurants that aren’t just there for tourists.

The apartment itself feels more like staying at a friend’s place than a typical hotel room. I mean, there’s a proper kitchenette where you can actually cook something decent (the stovetop works well, unlike some places I’ve stayed), and the living area has enough space to spread out your stuff without feeling cramped. The bed was surprisingly comfortable – I’m pretty picky about mattresses and this one didn’t leave me with that hotel back ache. What really got me though was the attention to small details: good water pressure in the shower, blackout curtains that actually block the light (essential if you’re dealing with jet lag), and they’ve got these thick towels that feel like someone’s grandmother picked them out. The Wi-Fi is solid too, which matters when you’re trying to navigate a new city or get some work done.

Here’s the thing about this area – you’re a quick walk to the Palace of Culture if you want the touristy stuff, but you’re also close to some genuinely good local spots. There’s this little milk bar two blocks down that serves the kind of pierogi that makes you understand why Polish people get nostalgic about them. The tram connections are excellent from here, so getting around the city is actually easier than staying in some of the more “central” hotels that charge twice as much. Parking can be a bit tricky on the street, but there’s a garage nearby if you’re driving. The only minor complaint I’d have is that weekend evenings can get a bit lively outside – not rowdy exactly, but you’ll hear people having a good time until later than you might expect. Pack earplugs if you’re a light sleeper, or honestly, just embrace it – it’s part of the Warsaw experience. For what you pay here, especially given that 9.2 rating (which feels accurate after staying there), you’re getting way more character and comfort than those generic chain places that cost double and make you feel like you’re in an airport terminal.

Warsaw’s hotels showcase the perfect blend of Polish tradition and modern comfort, with many featuring historical tour services and authentic Polish hospitality.

  The apartment was beautiful very clean and it has everything that a solo traveler for a few days requires. Best part was the Google TV, I enjoyed the movies while cooking food.
