Vacation in Art Style – Wrocław for Adults with Atmosphere and Curiosity

Some cannot imagine waiting for the holidays without "Last Christmas" or the iconic series of movies about Kevin. Our must-see event during this time is the Wrocław Christmas Market. It is one of the most characteristic symbols of the Advent countdown to Christmas Eve. Close your eyes. Imagine the taste of tea with cloves, twinkling lights, the smell of Christmas trees, colorful chains. Already?You just transported yourself to one of the most beautiful Christmas markets in Europe.The Magic of ChristmasThe Wrocław market is a place where the magic of Christmas literally hangs in the air. The smell of sweet gingerbread, spicy spices, and mulled wine is seasoned with the joyful laughter of visitors. This iconic event brings generations together. It doesn't matter whether the guest is small or big, everyone will find something for themselves here – it's an attraction that knows no age. A land of fairy tales, colorful carousels, a grill, or craft stalls. All the colors of the rainbow come together here and announce the upcoming holidays.Extraordinary EncountersThis is the only chance of the year to meet the Gift Gnome. He's a hardworking little guy. As other gnomes whisper, you need to touch his hat three times and make a wish. The Gift Gnome will then do everything in his gnome power to make it come true. Where to find him? He particularly likes one pot near the old town hall. Wait for him there patiently.Stay in the City CenterThe Christmas Market is most enchanting after dark, but it’s worth visiting during the day to see it from a completely different (and equally interesting) perspective. Step out for a stroll shortly after breakfast, wander among the stalls after your afternoon nap, and enjoy a warming drink half an hour before your evening bath. Find yourself at the center of holiday events and choose Art Hotel as your winter stop. We are just a few dozen meters from the market square. In addition, children under 16 stay with us for free, and your pet is welcome here. Come with the whole family and feel the magic of Christmas. Choose a comfortable pillow from the pillow menu, order breakfast to your room, and drop by for lunch at Art Restaurant.Pssst.

Who are we?Art Hotel is not just a building, a history, but above all, it is people with great hearts full of passion. We are pleased to be part of a company that not only fulfills its primary function of being a hotel but above all creates a friendly meeting place with culture, art, and other people. Our mission is to be present in society on many levels. We do everything to multiply good and thus teach ourselvesand others how not to be indifferent to others' misfortunes. We confirm our words with actions. At Art Hotel, we have often hosted participants of the Polsat television program “Our New Home” and organized collections among employees for those in need. Our goal is always summarized in the slogan: “together we can do more,” which is why we also encourage hotel guests to support our initiatives. We never wanted to be a purely commercial place. We wanted to have a voice and a real impact on our surroundings and thus belong to the local community. We have been working on our plans for over 25 years.Pet-friendly Art HotelIn our hotel, we are united not only by our love for people but also for animals. They are always welcome here. We understand how important the relationship is between an owner and their pet. We are also aware that often, in the case of travel, it is difficult – and sometimes even impossible – to leave a four-legged friend at home. Therefore, at Art Hotel, we are prepared for stays with dogs and cats. We dedicate a special starter kit for our four-legged guests, which includes bowls, bedding, and – if necessary – a litter box. We try to take care of them just as well as we do their owners.About the beginnings of a beautiful friendship with EkostrażWe had the pleasure of implementing various projects related to animals but – as they say – “the appetite grows with eating.” We came to the conclusion that we need someone from whom we can learn to help animals on a larger scale. A deep desire awoke in us to build a permanent, closer relationship with an organization that supports pro-animal initiatives and enjoys public trust. We wanted the fruit of such a relationship to be long-term cooperation that would allow us to engage in various tasks and directions. “Moreover, we know that a constant mutual exchange of experiences creates the best possible solutions and builds mutual trust” – says Agnieszka Radzikowska, director of Art Hotel in Wrocław.We initially defined the scope of assistance we would like to give to a certain institution. We then began the search for a specific organization. Unfortunately, the pandemic effectively thwarted our plans for two years. When we returned to accomplishing our original objectives, with the help of Wrocław friends, we managed to establish contact with Marta Zienkiewicz-Barańska from the Wrocław Ekostraż. “When I met Marta, literally within a few minutes of conversation, I knew we would find a common language and do something good,” says Anna Wałęsa, marketing and public relations manager at Art Hotel.During the conversation, new ideas were born, and the first declarations were made. We were delighted with the approach and care for animals at the Animal Protection Association “Ekostraż” in Wrocław. We want not only to help occasionally but also to support the foundation in educating society about pragmatic assistance to animals. We hope to conduct educational workshops for parents and children on how to care for pets, particularly in preparation for adoption.The Wrocław Ekostraż has been rescuing domestic and wild animals for 12 years, as well as educating and defending animal rights in court. They have collaborated with the city of Wrocław to protect hedgehogs in the city that are endangered while “wandering” at night through urban areas. We hope that educational panels on this topic can also be organized inside Art Hotel. We are confident that through such cooperation and knowledge, both the residents of Wrocław and our Guests from various parts of Poland will benefit.Common missionA special mission regarding animals is to encourage the local (and not only) community to adopt consciously. We would like to give animals a chance for a new home that they deserve and wait for for long years. One of the proposals encouraging adoption is our offer of free stay in the hotel for adopted pets. “Collections are constantly needed,” says Marta Zienkiewicz-Barańska from the Wrocław Ekostraż. The demand is enormous, which is why we want to contribute a brick from ourselves. We will publish Ekostraż's collections and support them in their overarching noble mission. We remain in constant contact and will be kept informed about ongoing actions and initiatives. Details of the collections will appear on both Art Hotel and Ekostraż channels. The essence of our cooperation will be a donation of 30% of the revenue from paid pet stays at Art Hotel to Ekostraż. Together, we hope that our relationships and collaboration will develop successfully and fruitfully, and our Guests and the local community will appreciate the initiatives we undertake. We want to inspire others to take similar actions.You can find out more about the activities of the Association here - it is really worth checking out!Art Hotel is a pet-friendly place, and if you are a proud adopted pet, you can also sleep with us FOR FREE** Adopted animals stay in the hotel for free upon presenting an adoption certificate.

Pillow menu – what is it?How many times have you slept on an uncomfortable pillow in a hotel? Too rigid, too soft, a bit too big, too small... We know how it is. With everyone in mind who prefers to sleep on a hard/gentle surface, on a pillow with natural filling, or a bolster, we have prepared a diverse pillow menu. This is an offer of pillows of various shapes and fillings, from which you choose which one you want to sleep on during your stay with us. The pillow menu primarily features pillows with health-promoting properties that help alleviate pain, muscle tension, and reduce stress. No more dilemmas like: will I sleep well today or not?!Pillow menu – is there an additional charge for the service?We do not charge any additional fee for the pillow menu. We realize that a pillow tailored to individual needs gives you a 70% chance of effective rest. The rest is a comfortable bed, silence, and optimal room temperature. We provide that as well.How to choose a pillow and order the pillow menu?Choosing is not always straightforward, which is why we encourage you to try out the pillows. During your vacation, you can familiarize yourself with the pillow that will provide you with maximum comfort. If any of them steal your heart and dreams, you have the option to purchase it at the hotel reception. It would be wonderful to extend that holiday state for more than one night, right?Pillows can be ordered to your room already when making a reservation in our online system or on-site, at the reception. However, we caution that the menu is particularly in demand – testing among guests is in full swing – so we encourage you to book your favorite in advance.Types of pillowsWe listen to guests' needs, which is why our offer is constantly expanding. The menu includes, among others, pillows: anti-dust mite, orthopedic, made of Swiss pine, head bolster, and, recently, also pillows with vegetable filling in the form of hulls: buckwheat, spelt, cherry stone, and a relaxing eye pillow with flaxseed.Pillows from Plantule, the power from natureOur pillow menu now features pillows from the Polish brand Plantule, with which we have the pleasure of collaborating recently. Plantule, as sleep specialists utilizing plant potential, enrich our assortment with health-promoting products. Such pillows are dedicated, among others, to menstruating individuals, those complaining of back pain, migraines, or rheumatic pains. The power from natural hulls: facilitates falling asleep, regulates sweating, and even reduces snoring. Each filling has its unique properties and peculiar characteristics.Buckwheat or spelt - what to choose?For example, buckwheat hulls are hard, thus providing solid support for the spine. Additionally, they emit a pleasantly feelable coolness, which brings particular relief during heat. Buckwheat is hypoallergenic and is the hero with the potential to reduce snoring. Spelt, on the other hand, is a soft and pleasant filling to the touch, and additionally has a gentle warmth emission. It is not surprising that its delicacy is most often chosen by women, although it will also work for those who appreciate sleeping on a soft surface. We particularly recommend it to those suffering from insomnia and muscle tension.Plantule – eye pillowAfter kilometers of walking, an intense nap comes in handy. For quick but effective recharging needed for further exploration of Wrocław, we recommend the eye pillow. Filled with flaxseed, it creates a pleasant, relaxing weight that has a soothing effect on tired eye muscles. Due to increased darkness, the body begins to secrete melatonin, also known as the sleep hormone. The pillow not only soothes tired eyes but also serves perfectly as a compress. It helps eliminate bothersome headaches or swelling.SummaryPillow menu is a pillow offer, allowing you as a guest to choose a pillow tailored to your needs completely free of charge. The offer includes several types of pillows, including those with natural fillings from the Polish brand Plantule. Order the pillow menu in the system when reserving your room or on-site at the hotel reception. And enjoy a peaceful, healthy sle...

The first half of the year has been very kind to us and has been rich in various ART-istic events. On Friday, June 23, 2023, there was a special joint reading for children! We couldn't have dreamed of a better date for shared integration – the end of the school year, the joyful beginning of the holidays, and Father's Day. Art Hotel has been collaborating with the Czas Dzieci Foundation for years and as part of this year's edition of the “Intergenerational Literature Festival Dads and Grandpas,” there was no lack of space for another meeting from the “Men's Reading” cycle. This is a unique project inviting men who are authorities in their professional field, enjoying success, respect, and sympathy.This time, the invitation went to the head chef of Art Hotel in Wrocław, Grzegorz Pomietło. For 26 years, Mr. Grzegorz has had a decisive influence on the flavors you'll find in the seasonal menu and the children's menu at Art Restaurant and Cafe. The head chef accepted this great honor with joy and took charge of promoting literature among the youngest on Friday.The reading took place in the hotel’s Apartment 324, in an intimate atmosphere. It was not an obvious place, though it couldn't have been otherwise – the rich library in the apartment creates a unique and artistic character to this place. The Chef read here the most delicious fragments of prose – literally and metaphorically! As it turns out, there are quite a few delicacies in children's literature! It was an hour full of culinary journeys, flavors, and adventures of the main characters of books like: “The Best Soup in the World” written by Susanne Isern and Mar’a Ferrero and “Rymo-Flavors, that is what to eat where in the world” by Szymon Barabach and Katarzyna Fryz. The overarching theme was what we love most in Art Restaurant – delicious food.From this friendly cooperation with the foundation and joint reading emerged a unique initiative, under the appetizing title “Literary Menu.” One could boldly risk the formulation that this is an original project on a global scale! The menu consists of proposals of three valuable children's books presented in the form of an appetizer, main course, and dessert. They are dedicated to children in various age groups (preschool, early school, and school age). Thanks to joint efforts, a kind of recommendation for valuable literature was created, which will be ideal for the ritual of shared family or individual reading. We guarantee that the menu does not contain ingredients that cause allergies or intolerances, such as boredom, incomprehensible language, or sad endings.“We are very committed to spreading the idea of reading to children, deepening the habits of spending free time with a good book. Such habits stay with us forever, especially when we have a ready recipe/menu for valuable children's literature” – says Hotel Director, Agnieszka Radzikowska.We invite you to visit our website www.arthotel/artkids, where you can download such a literary menu for your children. We wish you, from our side as well as from the Czas Dzieci Foundation, pleasant shared moments with good literature!photo: Anna Szymań...

Business operates by its own rules, and business trips are an essential part of work obligations. On the other hand, there is workation, which means voluntarily combining remote work with vacations and trips. Work and relaxation – is such a duo really possible? Remote work usually requires employees to have even greater concentration and self-organization than usual. Additionally, there are issues related to providing a comfortable space tailored to the specific conditions of online work. Despite the challenges, workation can (and is!) not only enjoyable but also beneficial – it serves as a motivator for employee productivity. It is therefore not surprising that more and more people working remotely are opting for this form of business activity. How to prepare for workation and what parameters to consider when choosing the ideal business hotel? We answer these questions in the article below.Hotel as a mobile officeBy choosing workation, you are not only changing your place of stay but, above all, your workplace. The hotel becomes your mobile office, and it is essential that it provides optimal working conditions. The hotel room should be suitably furnished and equipped.What does this mean?Working for long hours in front of a computer requires proper preparation. It involves organizing the space for work equipment, ensuring a comfortable seating arrangement, and providing good lighting. Maintaining work hygiene and ensuring proper spinal alignment while performing work duties with a laptop – in a mobile office – is particularly important. It is worthwhile to arrange your workspace in the hotel room so that it closely resembles office conditions. This arrangement greatly favors concentration. That’s why a room adapted for business travel should feature a desk or table and a comfortable chair. Silence and tranquility also positively influence the level of focus. Therefore, choosing a room with sound insulation that minimizes noise from outside or neighboring rooms is exceptionally important. Quiet is especially appreciated by those whose remote work requires joining phone calls for business meetings or video conferences.What else will be useful during workation?An additional advantage of a well-equipped room is the presence of manually adjustable air conditioning and windows with access to natural light. A coffee maker is also welcome, allowing you to have an energy-boosting break at any time. However, the most important and basic tool for remote work is a stable, fast internet connection. Without it, you can’t get very far, right? Business hotels are increasingly expanding their offerings with additional amenities, including a pillow menu. The pillow menu is a selection of pillows in various shapes and fillings, from which hotel guests choose their ideal companion. Sleep, both on vacation and during a working week, is essential. The pillow menu helps to “elevate it to the pedestal of efficiency.”SummaryWorkation in a hotel is an interesting variant of remote work. It ideally combines time for carrying out work duties with vacations. It is worth opting for this form of work (as much as possible, of course) and planning workation in a hotel. When choosing it, it is important to focus on the equipment available in the rooms – after all, one of them will become your temporary office. The saying: “the more amenities, the better” holds true here. The room should provide you with: a stable internet source, appropriate acoustics, a desk, a chair, and the possibility to relax (whether on comfortable beds with a pillow menu or with a cup of coffee). The rooms at Art Hotel meet the criteria needed to organize workation within their interiors.
