For a funky, contemporary experience with a sense of heritage, choose H15 Boutique Hotel. Here, the cutting edge designer rooms are encased by the Neoclassical architecture of the original building. A black and white chequered patio serves as a feature lobby – bold monochrome is somewhat of a theme running through the decor. Fine artist Rita Zimmerman’s vibrant photography in the form of large prints accent the rooms’ walls, along with minimalist framed four-poster beds and Italian furniture pieces. Peep through internal glass walls and dine in the Michelin starred restaurant. H15 Warsaw is a member of the Great Small Luxury Hotels of the World.
