If you are after a great view of Warsaw, the Marriott Panorama Bar is the perfect place to spend an evening. The lounge has got a very 80s sort of lounge feel to it with sofas, moody lighting and light music, creating the perfect atmosphere for romance. The cocktails are good but compared to other bars in the city, the Panorama Bar and Lounge is on the pricier end, but you end up paying for the view on this great skyscraper, which is worth it.
