I have stayed for 2 nights on a business trip. Services were very good. The hotel has very specific design, old venetian style of rooms, but somehow i didnt find it enough for a 5 star hotel. The bathroom was great with both shower and a bath tube in the middle of the room, but the room itself was dark / dark furniture, dark walls and paintings, and i didnt have a positive feeling in there. Also the rooms and coridors were really noisy, i couldnt sleep well.

Hotel Rialto is a lovely hotel. However....

We booked through ebookers which stated that a courtesy breakfast was included in the price. Reception insisted that this was not the case, our price did not include breakfast, and that we would have to pay for breakfast at £20 per person per breakfast and they weren't moving on that. Not wanting to add £80 to our two night stay bill we walked to the bakery down the road instead. Not having internet access we weren't able to check if this was the case until we got home... and indeed it states that a courtesy breakfast is included.... not impressed.

So... the breakfast experience took the shine off what would otherwise have been a lovely stay and wouldn't go again.

Leason learnt... print everything off and take it with you!

Rialto - please change the ebookers description

The Rialto Hotel is a very stylish hotel located within walking distance from both, tourist attractions and the business district. The rooms are comfortable and offer a welcomed change form the the way the vast majority of hotel rooms look all over the world. The rooms I have seen are kept in Art Deco and Colonial styles. The cleanliness of my room was always impeccable, in part because the cleaning staff do afternoon touch-ups.
The employees are friendly and attentive, but discrete. The Restaurant is rather good for Polish standards, as it offers a fresh take on classical dishes of local cuisine. The produce used seemed fresh and the preparation was on point.
Add a great value for money to the already impressive offer of the Rialto Hotel and what you get might just be the best hotel in Warsaw.

Spent there only one night, but this was enough to convince us. Classic décor – although I’m not a fan, it was so well designed and with such attention to detail, that it really impressed me.

Reception very kind and professional. We got upgraded, huge two chamber room, with huge bathroom and comfy bed. Quality materials used, fashionable lights in the room, details everywhere, well thought design. Really loved the room.

As for the area, basically in the city center (but ot the Old City), plenty of bars and restaurants.
Surprisingly affordable for that good five star hotel.

Recommended.
