One of my favorite hotels in Europe! Each room is unique and the hallways are sumptuously decorated…read morewith gorgeous vintage/antique pieces. As you can tell from their website, they decorate each room according to a different movie theme. They also provide fundamentally good hotel rooms. That is, the room I had was spacious, there was plenty of closet space to store clothes, there was a tea kettle, beds + linens were good, lighting good, wifi access was good, even though I was on the top floor, and bathrooms were great! One thing to be forewarned about is that this is an older building and my part of the building had no elevator, so if you book a room, you may want to confirm which level you are on, if you don't want to got up a lot of stairs. The location is fantastic: On the main street in Lodz, though note that it's pedestrian and taxi only, so if you're using Uber, for example, you drop-off/pick-up points are at the nearest intersection a very short walk away. There is a restaurant in the hotel, but I didn't try it. You're on the main street in Lodz, so there are options for food within a few minutes walking, anyway. Hotel staff was okay, and spoke English adequately enough, if you need that. Note that the staffing is minimal, so I don't think it's a full-service hotel. That is, I didn't see any signage or menus for laundry service, 24-hour room service, or porters to help with your luggage, etc. etc. Bathrooms: Modern, clean, and very functional! Towels were fluffy and nice!

A nice hostel in a good location near the main nightlife and shopping street in Lodz…read more I had a single room with ensuite bathroom, and it came also with a table and chair. Overall, a nice set-up. My major complaint was that the fixture that holds the shower head in place was broken, so the shower head (which is one of those on a long flexible metal tube) kept falling off unless you ever-so-delicately placed it in the holder fixture. It fell down at least 2-3 times per showering session. Hot water was good and pressure was good. Towels provided for free. I wish there were hooks in the bathroom though. There was no place to hang the towel, or a toiletries bag, etc. Also no counter top to place anything. The bed was okay; nothing fancy, but it's a hostel, so it met expectations. I know there's not much the hostel can do about this, but there are no stairs, and there are four levels above the ground floor. The front desk staff was friendly and seemed to know what they were doing. The wifi was awful much of time, and sort of usable at other times. At times, I had issues even connecting to the routers. There's a free breakfast in the morning with your standard European hostel breakfast of bread, cold slices of meat, 2-3 types of sliced cheese, and some vegetables. There's only one type of tea. There is a spacious kitchen area and a separate common room with a lot of tables and chairs. Bathrooms: Some issues as described above, but generally clean and somewhat functional.

We stayed here for two nights on a recent business trip. This was our 2nd choice as our go to hotel…read moredid not have availability. Overall solid hotel for business travel. Standard rate included a very good breakfast buffet. Service was great and there's a nice no frill lounge in the lobby. Location is close to restaurant row which was convenient. There is also a large indoor pool but their fitness center is Spartan at best.
