This city has always been a mecca of history – a melting-pot of nations and cultures from whole of the world.

In the 19th century Wroclaw as the capital of Silesia became the centre of culture and academic research in the region. With the development of railways, roads and inland waterway transport it has grown also to the role of an economic city.

Until 1944 Wroclaw remained outside the direct warfare actions. However, the east front was closer and closer with every single day. The Wroclaw Fortress had been closed. These were difficult times for the city. Sieged by the Red Army, Wroclaw fell on 6 May 1945.

The war has left its much visible and distinctive mark on Wroclaw, because both material and those purely social destructions were immense. Only at the end of the 50s the city began returning to its former potential. At the turn of the 60s and 70s Wroclaw became an important centre of cultural life. This is the home of the "Wratislavia Cantans" Festival and theatre groups run by Henryk Tomaszewski and Jerzy Grotowski.

Exactly on 12 July 1997 the culmination wave on the Oder River arrived to Wroclaw. Floodwater rose also in the Oława and Nysa Klodzka rivers. Almost 40% of the city was under water. The heroic efforts of local inhabitants in their fight against the deadly element have been immortalized in form of a monument called Powodzianka (Flood Girl) located at the university bridges

The Wroclaw of today hides an immense creative potential and is open to new artistic forms.

Wroclaw is not without a reason referred to as the meeting place. Here great cultural and sports events are held, for which even a modern infrastructure has been built. The Narodowe Forum Muzyki (National Forum of Music), Wrocławskie Centrum Kongresowe – Hala Stulecia (Wrocław Congress Centre – Centennial Hall) and Stadion Miejski (Municipal Stadium) are just some of the major investment in recent years.

Wroclaw as the European Capital of Culture has dedicated its efforts to promote the cultural heritage of Lower Silesia’s capital and its contribution to the development of Europe, striving also for greater availability of culture for the city and the region as a whole.

The Art Hotel is a unique point on the cultural map of Wroclaw. This picturesque location in the heart of the city where the history and creative passion penetrate each other and give fruit as a special atmosphere of the hotel interiors is something we cannot explain to the full extent.

The decor and surroundings of the hotel are aesthetically consistent and show quite visibly on the city map.

The capital of Lower Silesia can boast of connections to many significant artists who have shaped the polish culture as it is today.
