How to get to your hotel?
Taxi
The easiest and most recommended way to get to your hotel is by taxi. Taxi ranks are located in front
of both terminals of the Frederic Chopin airport (also called Okęcie Airport) and at one side of the
Central Station (Warszawa Centralna). The fare from the airport to the city centre, where your hotel
is located, is about 50 PLN (12 euro) and should last between 20 to 30 minutes; and from the Central
Station – about 20 PLN (5 euros) and some 10 minutes. Ignore the taxi-drivers soliciting you in the
arrival halls – they will charge you much more. Just follow taxi signs. Taxi drivers usually speak
rudimentary English. You can only pay in the Polish currency so make sure you exchange some
money at the airport/station.
Bus
There are buses (and a train) going from the airport to the city centre. Warsaw features a very good
public transportation site where you can find most suitable connections. Here is its link:

You can buy bus tickets at the newsagent’s, from ticket machines located at the bus stops or directly
from the driver. The standard fare is 3,6 PLN(1 Euro). You have to validate your ticket (each ride a
new one) in special machines inside the bus.
