Fodor's Expert Review Sofitel Warsaw Victoria

Opened in the late 1970s, the Victoria was, until 1989, Warsaw's only luxury hotel, hosting a stream of official visitors and state delegations. The large and comfortably furnished guest rooms, which are decorated in tones of brown and gold, are what you might expect in a big business hotel. Health facilities include a basement swimming pool and three exercise rooms. All these features are good enough to draw business travelers, but it's really the location that will appeal most to tourists: the hotel is just across the street from the jogging (or walking) paths of the Ogród Saski (Saxon Gardens), Zachęta Art Gallery, and Teatr Wielki Opera Narodowa.
