Hotels with a Spa near Warsaw Central Station
After a long train ride into Warszawa Centralna or a busy day in the city, a spa in the same building as your room is a simple luxury. The five hotels in this selection all have one, and they are among the best rated in central Warsaw: the InterContinental and the Hotel Polonia Palace, both rated 9.4, the H15 Boutique Hotel at 9.2, the Nobu Hotel with its full-service spa and Japanese restaurant, and the Warsaw Presidential Hotel, a historic grand hotel a short walk from the station with an indoor pool.
Central Warsaw is dominated by the Palace of Culture and Science, the tall Soviet-era landmark facing the station, surrounded by glass towers and the Złote Tarasy shopping centre beside the platforms. The Royal Route leads north towards the rebuilt Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and Łazienki Park lies to the south-east. Metro line M1 stops at Centrum nearby, and suburban trains link the station area to Chopin Airport.
Where to stay
Pools, saunas and quiet suites downtown
Warsaw winters are long and cold, and a sauna, a pool or a massage makes a real difference after hours outdoors or on a train. Staying near the central station puts these hotels within a few minutes of the platforms, the metro and the main sights, so the spa becomes part of the day rather than a separate excursion.
Two hotels add an indoor pool to their spa, which is the main reason I would pick them. The InterContinental Warsaw, a polished luxury hotel rated 9.4, has an indoor pool, a spa and a fitness centre, plus several restaurants, a cocktail lounge and parking. The Warsaw Presidential Hotel, a historic grand hotel rated 8.8, combines an indoor pool, a spa and a fitness centre with several dining options and a business centre, and it is the closest to the trains, a short walk from the central railway station. Both suit travellers who want to swim before breakfast or after a day of meetings.
For a spa with a strong identity, the Nobu Hotel stands apart. This luxury hotel, rated 9.0, offers sleek, modern rooms, a renowned Japanese fine-dining restaurant, a full-service spa, a fitness centre and a bar, along with parking and an airport shuttle. It is the obvious choice if the spa and the restaurant are as important to you as the location. The Hotel Polonia Palace offers a more classic setting: a historic grand hotel in downtown Warsaw, rated 9.4, with refined rooms, a restaurant, a bar, a spa and a fitness centre, suitable for business, family and leisure stays alike.
The H15 Boutique Hotel is the option for longer or more independent stays. Set in a historic building and rated 9.2, this luxury aparthotel offers elegant suites with kitchenettes and city views, a polished restaurant, a bar, a spa, a fitness centre, room service and an airport shuttle. Being able to prepare a light meal in your suite after a spa session is a comfort that the larger hotels cannot offer. I would choose it for a week in Warsaw, or for a couple who want space and calm without giving up the services of a luxury hotel in the city centre.
All five hotels are pet-friendly and list parking, so travelling with a dog or by car is easy whichever you choose. For a quick comparison: the InterContinental and the Presidential win on their indoor pools, the Nobu on the character of its spa and restaurant, the Polonia Palace on its historic setting and top rating, and the H15 on suites with kitchenettes. The Presidential is the most practical for the trains, while the Nobu and the H15 add an airport shuttle. Whichever you choose, central Warsaw is easy to explore on foot or by metro from each of them.
A traveler's perspectiveMy choice depends on the spa I want. For a swim and a sauna close to the trains, I would book the Warsaw Presidential Hotel. For the most complete facilities, I recommend the InterContinental and its indoor pool. For a spa evening followed by Japanese dinner, the Nobu would be my pick, and for a longer stay with a kitchenette, the H15 Boutique Hotel.
