InterContinental Warsaw

InterContinental Warsaw

What is your IHG Rewards Club status?
Spire Royal Ambassador

Were you happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you get?
Booked cheapest advance rate, and received a Club Executive Junior Suite

How are the rooms?
Junior suites are more suites than junior: 2 rooms, very large (around 70 sqm)
Classic corporate but still elegant interior design
Seating area with flat screen television, desk, minibar
Separate toilets
Bedroom with closet, sofa, flat screen television (large selection of international channels) and iPhone dock
Nespresso coffee maker
Marble bathroom with separate walk-in shower and bathtub. Agraria cosmetics



How is the exec. lounge?
Quite large.
Excellent staff: very impressed by the quality of service
Dated design
Panoramic view over the city
Good selection of evening food (but do not expect haute cuisine)
Very good breakfast
2 PCs
Conference room

What was good and what was bad?
Good
- Large junior suite
- Large pool with panoramic view (but can be quickly noisy and/or busy)
- Pleasant club lounge
- Friendly staff
- Convenient location (can be reached by Uber cars for less than 5 euros). Rent a bike station close to the hotel. Some trendy spots just next to the hotel (bars at Culture Palace, museum of contemporary art + library + café just next door)
- Warsaw is getting incredibly creative, with lots of trendy spots

Bad
- Nothing (except that both lobby, club lounge and restaurant area could definitely have a more luxurious atmosphere : more a Holiday Inn design than InterContinental)

Value for $ or Priority Club Points? Would you return?
Yes
