Warsaw Travel Forum

Hi,

Myself and eleven friends are coming to Warsaw for a weekend at the start of November for my stag do.

We are staying in the Marriot hotel - i was wondering was this a good place to stay and is it central for the nightlife.

Could anyone advise on any good pubs/bars/nightclubs? We generally like a laugh And are all aroung 30years old.

Any good places to watch the english football?

Also i have read about the ICE bar - would anyone recommend this as a place to visit.

Hope someone can advise.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Marriott is elegant but a little bit in middle of nowhere. Just across Main Railroad Station and Palace of culture but I dont think there are many interesting places around. The street near by is called "Pigalle" because prostitutes used to stand there even before Marriott was built. So it s a kind of night life :) (but not in a very civilised way, the street is rather gloomy)
So you d probably take a drive to any interesting places. If you want to be in the middle I d suggest other hotels.

actually a bit out of the way....but fortunately for you u can buy a 1 day pass for about 8zl and ride the excellent public transpo all day....be sure to validate it the first time you use it....because i've seen the cops randomly check..if you into malls theres a brand new fantastic one called zlote tarasy....its a block or 2 away

I haven't been to the Ice Bar but from what I've heard and read it's worth a visit.

However, it's very much a novelty bar where they give you big jackets and you freeze your danglers off whilst soaking up the frosty atmosphere. I wouldn't expect the place to be heaving.
