Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about this place? The name literally tells you everything – “W sercu Powiśla” means “in the heart of Powiśla,” and honestly, they’re not kidding around. This neighborhood sits right between the Old Town buzz and the Vistula riverbank, which means you get the best of both worlds without the tourist chaos directly outside your window.

The apartment itself is refreshingly honest about what it offers. There’s no TV, which I actually loved – I mean, when’s the last time you traveled somewhere to watch local programming anyway? Instead, you’ve got this decent-sized balcony where I spent most evenings just watching Powiśla come alive below. The air conditioning works well (crucial during those sticky Warsaw summers), and the WiFi is solid enough for video calls back home. The space feels lived-in rather than sterile, with those small touches that suggest someone actually cares about the place rather than just running it as a business. The floors creak a bit when you walk around, but it’s that charming old-building kind of creak, not the “this place is falling apart” variety.

What really sells this spot is the location – you’re maybe a ten-minute walk from the river boulevards where locals jog and drink coffee, and the same distance to Krakowskie Przedmieście if you want to dive into proper sightseeing. The building sits on a relatively quiet street, so you’re not dealing with tram noise all night, but you can still hear the gentle hum of the city. I noticed the best local pierogi place is literally around the corner (the one with the red awning – trust me on this), and there’s a small grocery store that stays open late, which saved me more than once. Parking can be tricky if you’ve got a car – street spots fill up fast, but there’s a paid lot about five minutes away that locals pointed me toward. Check-in was smooth, though I did have to coordinate timing since it’s clearly someone’s personal apartment rather than a hotel desk situation. The 9.0 rating makes total sense once you spend a night here – it’s not luxury, but it’s exactly what you want when you’re looking for an authentic Warsaw experience without paying Old Town prices.

    Getting to the building was actually quite easy… access from main gate a little bit tricky but we figured it out. Once settled everything worked out great.
    Bathroom spacius with big shower – towel provided 😉

Frente a cualquier necesidad o problemas hay una óptima atención al cliente. No podríamos esperar más. Muchas gracias por la hospitalidad.

  • Anna from Poland (8/10)

    rewelacyjna lokalizacja

  • Andrzej from Poland (9/10)

    Obiekt godny polecenia. Dobra lokalizacja, blisko na wislane bulwary. Z drugiej strony cisza i dużo zieleni wokół bloku, w którym znajdował się apartament. Mieszkanie nowoczesne, czyste, dobrze wyposażone w sprzęty kuchenne. Dwie ładne sypialnie oraz duży salon z aneksem kuchennym stwarzają warunki do spania nawet dla 6 osób. Szybki kontakt z właścicielem apartamentu, bez problemu gospodarz otworzył zdalnie mieszkanie nawet na godzinę przed oficjalnym czasem zameldowania. Nie mam jakichkolwiek zastrzeżone do obiektu i poziomu obsługi.

  • Viktor from Ukraine (9/10)
