Mini kawalerka w samym Centrum Warszawy

Hotel Description

Okay, so this little place on Poznańska is basically what it says on the tin – a mini studio right in the heart of Warsaw’s Śródmieście district. I mean, when they say “kawalerka,” they’re not kidding around – it’s compact, but honestly? You’re not going to find a better location for the price. You’re literally a five-minute walk from the Palace of Culture (love it or hate it, it’s useful for getting your bearings), and the Old Town is just a pleasant stroll across the Vistula. What I really appreciated was how quiet it actually gets at night – Poznańska isn’t one of those main thoroughfares that has trams clanking by at all hours, which was a pleasant surprise.

The space itself is pretty cleverly designed, though you’ll want to pack light because storage is… well, let’s just say you’ll get creative with your suitcase placement. The kitchenette is functional enough if you’re planning to grab groceries from the Żabka downstairs (there’s always a Żabka), and the bathroom is one of those efficient European setups where everything has its place. Check-in was smooth – the host actually met me there, which I preferred over hunting down a lockbox or something. The Wi-Fi worked fine for video calls, which honestly saved my trip since I had to jump on a few work meetings. One thing to note: the building’s got that classic Warsaw apartment vibe with the heavy doors and old-school intercom system, so don’t expect anything fancy in the common areas.

What really sells this place is stepping outside your door and realizing you’re in the thick of everything. Nowy Świat is right there with all its cafes and that weekend energy, plus you can walk to most of the main sights without dealing with public transport – though the metro’s close if you need it. I found myself grabbing morning coffee from this little spot around the corner (the barista remembered my order by day three, which felt very neighborhood-y), and evenings were perfect for wandering toward the river or checking out whatever was happening in the squares. The 8.3 rating makes sense – it’s not luxury, but it delivers exactly what you need for exploring Warsaw without the tourist hotel markup. Just remember it’s a studio, so if you’re traveling with someone, you’ll be getting cozy whether you planned on it or not.

Warsaw hotels provide guests with comfortable accommodations in Poland’s capital, known for its remarkable post-war reconstruction and dynamic business environment.

Reviews

• Good – Dola from Bangladesh – April 21, 2025 (7/10)

  Loved the location and the building itself. It was a calm environment to be in, minus the construction work that was going on at the time. The room, although small was comfortable enough for the short stay.
  
  What could be improved: However, I must say I felt a lot of things missing that a rental apartment/airbnb usually provides. When I first entered, the drying rack was full of wet laundry that made the entire apartment smell, due to it not drying properly. I think it is common to offer oil, salt, pepper and sugar as common commodities. Furthermore, there was also no extra toilet paper or any kitchen paper. A mirror in the room could be also appreciated. Lastly, I was really struggling with the TV remote.

• Very pleasant stay, clean convenient and comfortable – Tomasz from Poland – July 16, 2024 (8/10)

  The place was clean, it had everything I needed, the fact I didn't have to share facilities without anyone was a big plus, good location. Very neat system with locking and unlocking the doors, it was very convenient that I didn't have to meet up with anyone to get or hand over the keys, I just used the provided code. I was also pleasantly surprised that even though it was extremally hot the day I was staying the temperature in the room was fine.
  
  What could be improved: nothing in particular. I like sleeping on smaller pillows, so that was something that wasn't particularly comfortable for me, but that's a rather minor and subjective thing.

• Okay for short stays and one person – Alessandra from Spain – June 2, 2025 (7/10)

  In general, the accommodation is recommended for a short stay in Warsaw. The price-performance ratio is perfectly acceptable and the accommodation is very centrally located in Warsaw, close to the main railway station. It is a 35-minute walk to the Old Town, but you could also get there faster by public transport. The flat is very modern and has everything you need for a stay.
  
  What could be improved: What I didn't like: The accommodation initially sent me all the important information in Polish. I then had to translate everything with a translator so that I could understand the information. After I asked to write in English, this was then also fulfilled.
  The host forgot to tell me the code for the flat door in the messages. I then stood outside the accommodation and tried to contact the host, which took some time. In addition, the flat was not ready at 3 pm and I had to wait until the cleaning lady had finished cleaning the room. I found it difficult to communicate with her as she didn't speak English.

• Very Good – Monika from Poland – March 30, 2025 (8/10)

  The smell in the bathroom was really bad as well as towels, they smelled bad and weren’t absorbing much water

• Hassle free accomodation – Bulut from Poland – November 9, 2024 (9/10)

  Room was generally clean,comfortable, there was additional bedding hung on the drying rack. Although haven't used it, I saw stevia provided as an alternative sweetener for tea/coffee. The location was perfect. Directions for entering the apartment were clear and sent on time, i didn't have to call anyone additionally. Photos of the each door (gate, apartment and room) were also included in the email for easy guidance. Keyless entry. I was able to find parking spot in 10 meters distance to the apartment around 22:00.
  
  What could be improved: Room could be a little warmer. It would also be nice if the table next to bed were either a little farther from the bed or weren't fixed to the wall (just be a little careful so as not to bump your shoulder to the table corner, I was to tired to check if it was foldable). It would be nice if there were one yime use shampoo shower gel etc. Included in the shower.

• Good – Junyao from Sweden – March 23, 2025 (7/10)

  Great location
  
  What could be improved: Hard to find the apartment access
  
  People make big noise in the corridor

• Exceptional – Alex from Lithuania – July 31, 2024 (10/10)

  Hard to find better within this price range.

• Exceptional – Кирьянова from Belarus – June 26, 2024 (10/10)

  It was super clean 👍🏻 and I like that everything was new
  
  What could be improved: In my opinion the bed isn’t large enough, only for 1 person

• I wouldn’t recommend it – Marwan from Sweden – November 11, 2024 (1/10)

  What could be improved: I recently stayed at this apartment and was deeply disappointed, primarily due to the unreasonable 10 a.m. checkout time. Being forced to wake up early while exhausted felt exploitative, as they charge an extra 65 PLN just to extend checkout by two hours. This policy seems designed to take advantage of guests who simply want a bit more rest. In contrast, most hotels and apartments I’ve stayed at have a standard checkout at 12 p.m. or 11 a.m., and owners are often accommodating if the room is available. Here, however, even asking for a short extension felt like a money grab, with higher fees for longer stays.
  
  Additional negatives:
  – The studio is located on the second floor of a building without an elevator, and each floor is quite high, making it feel like climbing four flights of stairs.
  – The studio itself is very small, including a small bed that is not comfortable for two people and a tiny dining table with just one chair.
  – Visiting during winter, I also noticed there was no air conditioning, which could be problematic in hot summer months.
  – The sound insulation through the door is poor, as I could clearly hear noisy neighbors late at night, making it difficult to sleep.
  
  Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this apartment unless major changes are made.

• Very Good – Bergmans from Belgium – July 20, 2025 (8/10)

  Très bon emplacement du logement, proche de la gare, du centre ville et de beaucoup de restaurants/bars. Appartement petit mais très fonctionnel !
  
  What could be improved: Nous entendions fort les autres personnes dans le couloir et les rideaux ne sont pas très opaques donc en été, il fait clair dans la chambre à partir de 5h30 – 6h
