About ULTIMATE Warsaw City Guide

ULTIMATE Warsaw City Guide is an independent guide for visitors to Warsaw, Poland. We publish 14 curated lists: restaurants, cafés, bars, hotels, sights, arts & culture, gardens, walks, shopping, health, property, developments, cars & trams and getting around. Today the guide holds 151 places, with 17 area and themed guides, 8 in-depth articles and 7 day plans, and we keep adding to it.

Our editor

Jai Michael is Editor-in-Chief of the ULTIMATE City Guides. With more than 25 years in the media industry, he founded ABSOLUTE brighton and London TV, and has worked with leading luxury brands around the world.

How we choose

Every place in our lists has been checked against its own website or an official source such as the Warsaw Tourism Office (go2warsaw.pl), Warsaw Public Transport (wtp.waw.pl), Warsaw Chopin Airport, PKP Intercity, the museums’ own sites, the Treblinka Museum or The MICHELIN Guide. MICHELIN stars are quoted only from the 2026 MICHELIN Guide Poland. We use no ratings, and we leave out anything we can’t confirm.

Before you go

Opening hours, seasons and timetables change often. Please check directly with each place, and with official sources, before you travel. Prices are in Polish złoty (PLN).
