About the hotel
Designed by a team led by Tadeusz Spychała and opened in November 2003, the tower is known for the large void through its lower section, a planning requirement so that flats behind it would still get enough sunlight. It stands on Emilii Plater Street beside Warsaw Central station, the Palace of Culture and Science and the Złote Tarasy mall. Its 414 rooms include long-stay apartments with kitchenettes, the RiverView Wellness centre has a pool with views over the city, and dining includes Anawa restaurant and Verdant Bar.
