Krucza City Centre Apartment

Hotel Description

You know what? I was honestly skeptical about staying in an apartment-style place in Warsaw’s city center – I mean, you never really know what you’re getting into with these converted buildings. But Krucza City Centre completely won me over, and I actually ended up extending my stay by two nights. The location on Krucza Street is just… well, it’s perfect if you want to actually live like a local for a few days rather than being stuck in some sterile hotel bubble. You’re literally a three-minute walk from the bustling Nowy Świat area where all the good restaurants are, but far enough up the street that you don’t get the weekend party noise that can drive you crazy in the main tourist zone. The building itself has that classic Warsaw charm – you know, the kind that survived everything this city’s been through – with these gorgeous high ceilings and original hardwood floors that creak just enough to feel authentic without being annoying.

What really impressed me was how they’ve managed to keep the apartment feel while still giving you proper hotel-level service. The kitchenette actually works (I made coffee every morning and even attempted some pierogi from the nearby market), and there’s this cozy living area where I found myself working on my laptop way more comfortably than I ever do in typical hotel rooms. The bathroom’s modern without being flashy, though I’ll be honest – the shower pressure could be a bit stronger, but that’s pretty standard for older Warsaw buildings. Check-in was surprisingly smooth too; they met me right at the building entrance since there’s no traditional lobby, which I was worried about initially but turned out to be way more convenient than waiting around some fancy reception desk.

I spent most evenings walking around the Śródmieście district, and honestly, this spot puts you right in the heart of everything without feeling touristy. There’s a fantastic little café called Charlotte on the corner that locals actually go to (you can tell because everyone’s speaking Polish and reading newspapers), and the tram stop is close enough that getting to the Old Town or anywhere else is basically effortless. The apartment stayed quiet even during weekday rush hours, which surprised me given how central it is. One thing that really stood out was the attention to small details – proper blackout curtains that actually block the street lights, decent Wi-Fi that didn’t cut out during video calls, and they’d stocked the place with those little touches like good coffee and local honey. Sure, it’s not going to give you the full concierge experience of a big hotel, but if you’re the type of traveler who prefers exploring the city over hanging around a hotel bar, this place just makes sense. Plus, at this price point in such a prime location, you’re getting incredible value – I’ve paid way more for way less in other European capitals.

Reviews

• Exceptional – Bogdan from Ukraine – July 25, 2025 (10/10)

  Easy to find. Self check in. Many bars and restaurants around.
  
  What could be improved: Just a recommendation: a few capsules of coffee for a coffee maker would be great.

• An amazing apartment in a perfect location – Dorin from Israel – April 22, 2025 (10/10)

  The apartment in a perfect location, nothing could be more convenient than that, walking distance from the city center, from Zloty Shopping Mall, from the Old Town, from public transportation, next to the Novotel Hotel. Building with a guard, well-kept and quiet. Fully equipped apartment, clean, spacious, two bedrooms, living room, kitchen and a sweet, back balcony. Immediate communication with the owner when needed. It made our entire vacation. We were there for 8 days.

• Nice location but overpriced – Jessica from United States – July 6, 2025 (8/10)

  Great location, close to lots of great locations.
  
  What could be improved: Unclear how to access the site from the street. Entrance is actually accessed on żurawia street. The instructions on how to access were not very clear. Someone at the building had to show us how to do this.
  
  Most expensive property we rented in Poland, by far, with the least amenities. We had to buy toilet paper, because there wasn’t enough. Not sure it was worth the price. The beds were very uncomfortable, mattresses need to be replaced.

• Pobyt udany, przyjechaliśmy z dziećmi na weekend, głównie zwiedzaliśmy. Bardzo polecam. – Agnieszka from Poland – August 13, 2025 (10/10)

  Lokalizacja super, czysto, komfortowo.
  
  What could be improved: W nocy bardzo duży hałas dochodzący z pobliskich barów i sklepu nocnego. Awantury nocne na ulicy, krzyki, piski,głośne rozmowy.

• Fantàstic! – Mario from Spain – July 13, 2025 (10/10)

  Apartament molt complet. Dues habitacions per a 4 membres, genial. Bona ubicació, prop del Palau de la cultura i la ciència; però un xic lluny del centre històric, per anar a peu.
  
  What could be improved: Ens va costar una mica trobar l'entrada a l'apartament, ja que no coincideix exactament amb el nom del carrer. Si mai aneu, l'accés és al carrer perpendicular Zurawia i no Kruzca.

• דירה נעימה ומומלצת – Mor from Israel – June 14, 2025 (9/10)

  הדירה היתה מאוד נעימה. איפשרו לנו גם להשאיר את המזוודות לפני שעת הכניסה.
  
  What could be improved: הכניסה לדירה היא לא בכתובת שנמסרה אלה מרחוב צדדי אחר, היה קשה למצוא את הכניסה בהגעה הראשונה.

• דירה נוחה ומאובזרת – Mariela from Israel – June 6, 2025 (8/10)

  דירה נקייה, מחולקת בצורה טובה, אסתטית, מיקום טוב ליד הרבה מסעדות ובתי קפה. יש מיזוג גם בחדרי השינה. המיטות נוחות ויש הרבה מקום איחסון.
  
  What could be improved: חדרי השינה פונים לכביש, בלילה עשוי להפריע לרגישים לרעש מאחר והחלונות לא אוטמים טוב רעשים. לציין שניתן לישון בספה נפתחת נוחה למדי בסלון הפונה לחצר, שם שקט. בנוסף יש לבקש מראש פרטים מדויקים לגבי מיקום הדירה. המידע שקיבלנו היה חסר ולקח זמן למצוא.

• Wonderful – Anna from Poland – February 22, 2025 (9/10)

  Apartament spełnił nasze wymagania. Bardzo dobra lokalizacja. Polecam!
