Marriott Hotel Warsaw

Well, just like in Moscow or Detroit, this is quite a regular place for exhausted business travellers and it has everything you expect to find to lay back and stretch your legs in comfort. The building looks to be a typical boring concrete skyscraper of the late Soviet era (you can easily find those type of buildings in Moscow, Riga or East Berlin too) but one fine day it was completely renovated and stuffed with some typical, slightly old-fashioned Marriott-style furniture.
It's the way too conservative, from point of view, to be the preferred choice if you're travelling on your own, and it is quite expensive too.
I have to admit buffet breakfast is simply superb.

We had decided on going to Warsaw between Christmas and New Year even though it is rather cold there; we just wanted to go away and se something new.
I checked for good hotel deals on hotels.com and found a great offer on the Marriot. The hotel is situated next to the Russian Cultural gift to the Polish people. The hotel is one of the tallest buildings in Warsaw.
We got a room on the 19th floor with a view over the cultural centre. It was a nice large room and the bed was fantastic; I guess it was the best bed we both had slept in ever.
Besides the good price offer, we had booked the hotel because of the pool and the gym, but when we arrived in the reception they had a sign where they announced that the pool area was closed between Christmas and New Year.
The hotel had a great breakfast buffet and it was a good way to start the morning in order to get energy for cold walks in the city afterwards.

The hotel was in general a very good hotel
