How far will my Polish zloty go?

  • If you’re not travelling to Poland right away, it’s worth watching the exchange rate and buying when the pound (GBP) is strong against the Polish zloty (PLN)

  • For a reasonably small budget, you can cover a cheap hotel room, dinners at mid-level restaurants and visits to the odd museum. Using the intercity buses and trains also cuts down on travel expenses

  • Eating at good restaurants and staying at the best hotels can cost just as much as in Western Europe. And prices will be higher across the board in the three main cities of Warsaw, Krakow and Gdansk

  • Book a taxi by phone – in Krakow, it costs less than flagging one down on the street

  • Keep some small notes – some cafés and smaller shops won’t accept anything above 50zl

  • Eat at sandwich shops – found in big cities, they’re a cheaper lunch than sit-down restaurants

  • Haggle in the markets – it’s acceptable to argue on price, so learn a few Polish phrases

Some common questions

  • The Polish zloty is the official currency of Poland. It’s pronounced zwo-ti.

  • The zloty is used only in Poland. One zloty is subdivided into 100 groszy.

  • Post Office makes it easy to get travel money for your trip. You can order Polish zloty online or in any participating Post Office branch. Use our branch finder tool to locate your nearest branch with this service with this service.

    Use our click and collect service when ordering online and you can pick up your currency in any of our 11,500 branches around the UK or choose home delivery. Buying online may get you a better rate too. Buying large quantities and when the Polish zloty exchange rate is good are other ways to make savings.

    If you prefer to use plastic for your holiday spending, consider our Travel Money Card. It’s a prepaid Mastercard you can load before going away. It operates in 22 currencies, including Polish zloty.
