Background

Warsaw is Poland's capital. For visitors and accommodation operators, the city maintains a public register of premises offering hotel services outside the formal hotel categories. Eligible premises include rooms, apartments and holiday cottages.

Operators apply through the district responsible for their premises. City staff check the application and request missing information before registration. The resulting list appears in Warsaw's public information bulletin, giving guests and hosts a place to check registered properties. The city's registration guidance explains the documents and application routes.
