The hotel`s characteristic and colourful façade is an easily recognisable architectural feature of Warsaw and an elegant threshold to the district of Ochota. The four star hotel was designed and built by an Austrian - Polish team, and received its first guests in 1992. The common historical element connecting both countries is King Jan III Sobieski - a great Pole and outstanding statesman, who led his troops to the rescue of besieged Vienna. The Hotel has 427 comfortably equipped guest rooms including 118 rooms with a (high speed) direct Internet access.
