And in the past...
Polonia Palace Hotel was always the integral part of the Warsaw's 20th century history. Opened on 14 July 1913, it introduced for the first time a Parisian style to the city. The building looked as if it was transferred from the center of Paris with its mansard roofs and rich interiors in the "Louis" style. Right within the "Golden Twenties" in 1924 the exquisite restaurant, called "Palais-Dancing" (todays Ludwikowska Restaurant), was opened. This was one of the major events among the Warsaw society, and it soon became one of the most popular and most fashionable places, where well-known names of that time used to be frequent guests: General Dwight Eisenhower, Charles de Gaulle, Adolf Dymsza, Kornel Makuszyński, Stefan Żeromski, Julian Tuwim. The famous Polish actor and singer Jan Kiepura used to give concerts from the hotel restaurant's balcony during dinner banquets.
Polonia Palace Hotel has welcomed guests from around the world, including famous artists, writers, celebrities and diplomats, for more than 90 years. Its splendor and elegance created the trends of fashion for many generations. While celebrating our Birthday, we would like to continue this great tradition.
