Top hotels in Powisle
Barceló Warsaw Powiśle
Absolutely fantastic location. Very attractive setting. No bottled water in the rooms. Staff seemed polite but uninterested in extending themselves. The elevators only semi-functional/reliable.

Mariensztat 8 Hotel
Beautiful and thoughtful rooms, with a lot of extras. Super clean and the hotel continues with more construction in the courtyard, where it is already looking lovely. Owners are super friendly and helpful.Location could not be better, I hope to be back.
