Living in a hotel for more than on year is a rare experiance, which I am really happy about. Very comfortable room, great view over a park beneath the hotel, excellent and varied breakfast, friendly hotel crew, free internet access - the best of comfortable accommodation a Four-Star hotel can offer.
Once in a month I had to clear the room for my three to four days hometrip, but I had the same room for several month respectively. The hotel is very near to the town centre, most weekend events like concerts or cinema are in short walking distances. The hotel has a very fine restaurant with a good choice of wines and a cosy bar. The beautiful Warta shore with its several restaurants and leisure zone is within a 15 minutes walk. On weekends, which I spent in Gorzów, the car was constantly parked beneath the hotel, I did all my ways by foot.
Stary Browar - a shopping, arts and business center was designed on the basis of a historic factory, the former Brewery Huggerów in November 2003 and is located in the center of Poznań. The total area of the Old Brewery is around 130000 m² and is home to around 210 stores and restaurants.
All photos are shot with my Canon 5D III and EF 1.2/50 L USM. Unfortunately my wide angle EF 1.8/28 became internally loose and needs a professional CLA. For this building the wide angle would have been the better choice, but it was challenging to use a standard lens instead.
