The Marriott on Aleje Jerozolimskie 65-79 is described as City Center, but looking at a map it seems to be a bit outside; it is adjacent to Central Train Station.

Anyone have recommendations on a similar hotel closer in? Thanks~
Walking in Warsaw - is this hotel too far from City Center?

Warsaw is quite spread out - there is no "city center." If you mean old town square, there is bus service from the station area or there are cabs. Taxi rates double after 9:00 PM. Cabs at the station want high rates so you need to negotiate or walk around the corner to find another taxi rank and see if you can get cheaper rates.
There are few hotels in old town. The Castle Inn is one of them. I didn't stay there but did speak with 2 ladies who were staying at that hotel and they did mention there is no elevator.
I stayed at Hotel Helmet, a business hotel, which is across the river and I would not recommend that area as there are very few restaurants and not good restaurants and there isn't much in that location.
Thanks Adrienne for your insight and I do indeed mean Old Town Square area.
There's not much posted here about Warsaw so I especially appreciate your
taking the time.
The Castle Inn looks like a fantastic location but has no
availability for my nights. Thanks again~
The sights are all spread out so it doesn't much matter where you stay. Be sure to see the Uprising Museum - it was fantastic!
Just perused your trip report "Five Polish Towns...." --interesting and well-written!
(I also take a printout of train schedule when buying tickets in a foreign language.)
And we will definitely visit the Warsaw Uprising Museum. Thank you.
I was in Warsaw for three days in July and stayed at the Marriott because it was such a bargain ($80/night including breakfast, though two of the three days were weekend days). I like to walk, but I also used the buses and trams extensively. The three day transit pass (which cost less than $10) was well worth it.
