We have a common room on each floor and a full kitchen for everybody to use. The hostel is centrally heated in the winter and it has 24 hour hot water.

We provide you with excellent quality for the low price, but please remember WE'RE NOT A HOTEL. This is a Hostel with many people meeting and socialising together and that means that they can make noise sometimes =)

Direction

* BY TRAIN

To those coming to the hostel from the Central Train Station (Warszawa Centralna) we recommend a short walk.It should't take you more than 15 minutes and will allow you to see some of the city in the first minutes of your stay.

After leaving the train station (Warszawa Centralna) make sure that you have the Palace of Science and Culture (huge, weird looking building with a clock tower on the top- it's on our map) on your left side and that you're on Aleje Jerozolimskie Street. Keep walking; you have to pass the Polonia Palace Hotel (on your right,on the other side of the street). When you see the big main crossing of Aleje Jerozolimskie and Marszalkowska Street, go through underground passage: straight as far as you can go and then right. After coming out from underground passage you have to find yourself standing at the bottom of the Novotel Hotel. Make sure that you have this hotel on your left and that you're on Marszalkowska street. Keep walking straight along the street.
After passing Wilcza street (a side street from Marszalkowska) turn left on Piekna Street and keep walking along it. We're located in a light pink building with a huge Nathan's Villa Hostel banner on it.

If you decide to use public transportation, take one of these buses:

- #525, 502, 505, 514 from the bus loop behind the main hall of Centralna Station and get out on the second

stop called "Pl. Konstytucji"

OR

- #405, 501 from bus stop opposite Centralna Station, just next to Marriott Hotel and get out on second stop called "Pl. Konstytucji"

( but please consider that bus # 405 runs from Monday to Friday from 5.30 a.m. to 10.15 a.m. and from 1.50 p.m. to 6.30 p.m., and doesn’t run in July and August)

Once you are on Pl. Konstytucji locate the KFC restaurant on corner of Marszalkowska and Piekna streets. Walk along Piekna about 50 meters, you should see a facade of a light pink building with Nathan's Villa Hostel billboard on it. Our hostel is in the courtyard of that building.

* BY TAXI

A taxi ride Central Station should not be expensive, not more than 15 Zloty / about 4-5 euros / However taking a taxi from the airport and Dworzec Zachodni will be around 25-30 zloty.

Each taxi has prices displayed on passengers doors. Regular prices should be between 1,40- 2,00 zloty per kilometer. Do not trust more expensive ones, you can end up paying a small fortune for a ride!

We do suggest you take public transport. It is very convenient and much cheaper. But if you want to take a taxi the best way is to call- # +48 22 6923 - that’s HALO TAXI, all their drivers know where the Hostel is situated
