Hotel Logos

The three-star Hotel Logos gingerly straddles the line between impersonal Eastern Bloc monstrosity and quirky, retro Eastern Bloc artifact. Housed in a massive, mirrored building set among more traditional apartment buildings in a quiet but central location, Hotel Logos dramatically makes its presence known.

The hotel's 49 rooms achieve their ends in a cookie-cutter fashion, a kind of neutral mathematics: Amenity plus amenity equals tourist-class status. Accordingly, rooms are rather boring. Floral curtains, patterned duvets and wall-to-wall carpets are all uninspired. Still, there are a few nice retro touches, in particular the couches found in apartment suites. Double rooms facing the street have tiny window alcoves for sitting. All rooms are equipped with a telephone, minibar and free Wi-Fi.

Hotel Logos boasts some of the business hotel goods—full concierge services restaurant, sauna, a meeting room. A short distance from Stare Miasto, it’s close to the tourist action but somewhat removed from it. For those visitors more concerned with a tourist-class standard than style, Hotel Logos is a fine choice.

Breakfast is included.
