The Best Hotels in Warsaw for Every Budget

The Best Hostels in Warsaw

Safestay Warsaw Old Town

A solid hostel option in the Old Town is Safestay Warsaw, a hop-skip from the Presidential Palace with the many attractions and eateries of the Old Town on its doorstep. Dorms have individual reading lights, privacy curtains and lockers – or you can nab a private ensuite double or twin room. There’s a communal loft space for mingling and a cafe-bar, plus Safestay runs pub crawls too. Guests rate the friendly staff and comfortable beds, although some reviews note that bathrooms could benefit from more frequent cleaning.
Rooms start at around £18 per night

Kapsuła Hostel

Now you know I love a capsule hostel – for the price you can’t really beat them. If you want hostel prices but need more privacy than a typical dorm, a capsule hostel is for you.

Kapsula is in Warsaw’s city centre, about 20 minutes’ walk from the Old Town. It’s at the more basic end of this hostel type, but ideal if you want your own space and don’t want to pay up for a hotel room. The capsules are a decent size and have air con, lighting, a power socket and a blind for privacy.

Kapsula has a quiet zone policy (they even give out free slippers!), which is handy if you don’t want party vibes. Bathrooms are divided by gender and kept very clean, and there’s a lounge and kitchen area with a microwave and kettle for basic drinks and meals.

Pods start at around £26 per night

Oki Doki Old Town

For a more classic hostel experience, where you can get sociable and mix easily with other guests, head over to Oki Doki Old Town. It’s one of Warsaw’s best-loved hostels, and you’re just five minutes from the Old Town square, so you’re right in amongst it all.

Choose to stay in a mixed or female-only dorm, or a private room if that’s in budget. Beds are comfy and and bathrooms are clean, and some – but not all – rooms have air conditioning. 

Communal areas include a kitchen, games room and bar, so it’s a convenient spot if you’re travelling solo.

Dorm beds start at around £26 per night

The Best Budget Hotels in Warsaw

B&B Hotel Warszawa-Okęcie

B&B Hotel is a no-frills base with smart, compact rooms. It’s also near the airport, meaning good connections to the city – there’s a tram stop right outside the door. Rooms are simply furnished and modern, with feature walls depicting floor-to-ceiling photos of the city. There’s also a small shop selling snacks and drinks on-site, which is handy.
Rooms start at around £48 per night

ibis Styles Warszawa Airport

An ibis hotel is always a strong budget option, and their Warsaw airport outpost is no exception. This is an ibis Styles, so the decor has gone up a notch – there’s a cool monochrome theme going on –  and the airport is just a short (and free) shuttle ride away. Rooms have sound-proofed windows and blackout curtains – plus there’s underfloor heating in the bathrooms which always feels a bit posh. There’s a generous buffet breakfast, and a lounge bar for drinks. It’s a smart pick if you’ve got an early or late fight and you want the convenience of being by the airport.
Rooms start at around £50 per night

Motel One Warsaw-Chopin

Motel One is a good value brand for budget city stays – I find them to be reliable and good value, plus they’re easy on the eye too. This one is in a modern building right next to the Chopin Museum, and a 20-minute walk from the Old Town square. Rooms are playful and contemporary, with shades of grey, white and teal. Guests rate the helpful staff and the clean, comfortable rooms.
Rooms start at around £60 per night

The Best Mid-Range Hotels in Warsaw

PURO Warszawa Stare Miasto

You probably know how much of a fan I am of PURO hotels – they look great, their rooms are so comfortable and you can find them across Poland. There are actually two outposts in Warsaw – this one is a 5-minute walk from the Old Town square.

PURO Warsaw Stare Miasto is a 4 star hotel with design magazine-worthy interiors at a very reasonable price. There’s a Scandi vibe going on, so interiors are chic – lots of brick, stone and wood – and facilites-wise there’s a gym and sauna and free bike hire. Their restaurant MUND serves up Nordic dishes and there’s even a rooftop terrace – MUND Up – with panoramic views.

Rooms start at around £94 per night

Hotel Indigo Warsaw

Hotel Indigo is helpfully perched at the start of Nowy Świat, one of the city’s buzziest streets, in a lovely renovated building with an impressive  central courtyard.

This is a 4-star property in a renovated building with smart interiors. Decor is modern and tech-enabled – think curtains and lights controlled by a screen. Guests rate the comfortable beds, spacious rooms, extensive breakfast buffet and top location. Just note that this is a place to stay if you like being in the middle of things, as Nowy Świat get lively on evenings and weekends.

The wellness area has a sauna and steam room – great for resting tired legs after a long day of walking – and you can eat delicious modern Polish dishes at FLO restaurant. Bike hire is available for free at reception

Rooms start at around £90 per night

Hotel Polonia Palace

Hotel Polonia Palace is the second-oldest hotel in the city – an impressive feat in a place which was heavily bombed during WWII and has been painstakingly rebuilt.

Stay for grandeur with a sense of history – even an American president has stayed here! You’re close to the central station and can walk to most sights in about 20-30 minutes.

You’ll find a striking exterior and comfortable bedrooms, plus there’s a spa, gym, sauna and a lobby bar overlooking the Palace of Culture and Science.

Rooms start at around £84 per night

The Best Boutique Hotels in Warsaw

Flaneur Hotel, WorldHotels Crafted

Flaner Hotel is a 4 star, Art Deco-style hotel on the Royal Route, a stretch of connected streets running south from the Old Town flanked by many beautiful buildings. 

Flaneur is a French term that roughly means a kind of affluent wanderer – the idea being this hotel is for the kind of traveller who likes to linger and soak up the atmosphere.

This is another well-priced 4 star gem. Rooms are generous in size with elegant decor, and bathrooms are top-notch. Plus there’s an excellent cocktail bar – Zwierciadło – which does excellent cocktails in the evening.

Rooms start at around £82 per night

H15 Boutique Hotel

This building was once the Soviet embassy and even the Nazi party headquarters before its current incarnation as H15 Boutique Hotel. It’s in Śródmieście Południowe, about 20 minutes’ walk from the Old Town.

You get enormous rooms here with kitchenettes and sitting rooms – so more like serviced apartment in terms of size. There’s a courtyard with a glass roof that doubles up as a champagne bar in the evenings. This hotel features in the Michelin Guide – and they know a thing or two about nice places to stay.

Rooms start at around £130 per night

The Best Luxury Hotels in Warsaw

InterContinental Warszawa

The view alone makes this hotel worth the splurge – there’s a rooftop pool on the 43rd floor. Up here you’ve also got a whole wellness area, with views towards the Palace of Culture and Science – so why not catch sunrise or sunset over the city?!

InterContinental is in an enviable location, by the central train station and Złote Tarasy shopping centre. Rooms are spacious and luxe, there’s a Club Lounge if you want to go a step more bougie, and there’s even a live harpist at breakfast!

Rooms start at around £175 per night

Hotel Warszawa

Hotel Warszawa is another sleek converted property with understated decor that just screams 5 star, located on Plac Powstańców Warszawy.

There’s a spa and wellness centre with a very swish indoor pool, plus a sauna and fitness centre. The terrace on the roof gets you those all-important city views, and rooms are incredibly stylish. You can also hire bikes here for free.
If you prefer new and stylish hotels rather old world glamour, then Hotel Warsawa is for you.

Rooms start at around £194 per night

Hotel Bristol, a Luxury Collection Hotel

Opposite Raffles is Hotel Bristol, another big name in luxury hotels and part of the Marriot Group. This one dates back to 1901 – the oldest hotel in the city (pretty rare here as so much of it was bombed in WWII).

You’ll be impressed as soon as you walk in the door, admiring the lobby’s painted ceiling and Art Nouveau detailing. You’ve got all the facilities you’d expect – a pool and spa and a rooftop bar too, perfect for evening drinks with an impressive backdrop.

Rooms start at around £250 per night

Raffles Europejski Warsaw

Raffles is an iconic hotel brand, and this Warsaw outpost is fittingly located on the Royal Route opposite the Saxon Garden. It’s in a beautiful restored building that dates back to 1857 and is one of the city’s grandest hotels.

Stay here and embrace proper old school luxury – butler service around the clock, a traditional spa and hammam, high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows and an in-house patisserie. The attentive staff are a standout here, so for a treat stay, this is hard to beat.

Rooms start at around £350 per night
