Frequently Asked Questions
What currency does Poland use and how should I handle payments?
Poland uses the Polish Złoty (PLN), not the Euro. Credit and debit cards are widely accepted at hospitals, hotels, and restaurants, but carry some złoty cash for tipping and smaller purchases. Avoid exchanging currency at the airport; instead use ATMs from reputable banks like PKO, mBank, or Santander for better rates. Note that private hospitals in Poland often require advance payment or proof of adequate insurance before admission.
Is tap water safe to drink in Poland?
Yes, tap water in major Polish cities like Warsaw and Kraków meets EU safety standards and is tested daily at every stage of treatment. Warsaw's official municipal website confirms its tap water meets the same quality requirements as London or Paris. Despite this, bottled water remains popular among locals due to older habits. Both still and sparkling mineral water are widely available and inexpensive.
How do I get around Polish cities to reach hospital appointments?
Uber, Bolt, and FreeNow all operate across major Polish cities including Warsaw, Kraków, and Gdańsk, with Bolt generally offering the lowest fares. Warsaw Chopin Airport is only 10 km from the city center with direct bus and train connections. Always use app-based ride services rather than unmarked taxis — the US State Department advises avoiding taxis without a company name and phone number on the light bar.
What should I know about pharmacies and bringing medications to Poland?
Polish pharmacies (apteka) are plentiful in city centers and sell over-the-counter medications at prices significantly lower than in the US or Western Europe. Carry physical copies of your prescriptions and a letter from your doctor, as Polish pharmacists may not accept foreign prescriptions without proper documentation. Most private medical facilities have English-speaking staff, and many have international patient departments with coordinators who can assist with local prescriptions if needed.
What accommodation options are available near Polish hospital districts?
Warsaw, Kraków, and Gdańsk offer a wide range of accommodation near medical facilities, from budget-friendly apartments on Booking.com to upscale hotels. Many medical tourism clinics have partnerships with nearby hotels offering discounted recovery-stay rates — ask your clinic coordinator. Short-term apartment rentals are particularly popular with medical tourists as they provide kitchen access for preparing recovery-appropriate meals and are often 30-50% cheaper than hotels for week-long stays.
