A tenement house from 1852

Our hotel in Warsaw’s Śródmieście district is located in a townhouse designed in 1852 by Henryk Marconi, an Italian architect. Originally, the building was adorned with 12 statues created by students of the Academy of Fine Arts. Over the years, the townhouse underwent many changes, as did its owners. As early as the 19th century, the property changed hands several times. The building, which houses our hotel on Krakowskie Przedmieście, partially survived World War II, with its front section and original interior preserved. In the early 1950s, it was completely rebuilt based on a design by Bohdan Pniewski.

The World of *The Doll* by Bolesław Prus

Our hotel is closely connected to the novel The Doll by Bolesław Prus. It is within this very building that the author set the story of his book. From the moment you step inside, you enter the historical world of The Doll. In the novel, the shop of J. Mincel & S. Wokulski was located on the ground floor of the building, while on the first floor you could find the living quarters of Ignacy Rzecki. The design of our hotel has faithfully recreated, among other elements, the apartment of the loyal clerk, which now serves as the hotel reception area.
