Well, it depends which currency the mortgage is in....

In Poland, most banks will give you the choice of denominating the mortgage in a range of different currencies, all with different interest rates.

Most mortgages are variable and based on a LIBOR 3mth interbank rate (or EURIBOR, WIBOR for złoty):

Currently, here are the base rates for the different currencies:
PLN 6.57% (Polish zloty)
EUR 4.85% (Euro)
USD 2.68% (US dollars)
GBP 5.86% (British Pounds)
CHF 2.77% (Swiss Francs).

To this, the bank offering the mortgage will add it's margin.
A competitive margin in Poland will be around 1%, an uncompetitive margin will be up to 3-4%.

So the question is, how much is the margin on your mortgage, and that will tell you if you are paying too much...

Related question - my husband was born in Poland but doesn't live there, I am an American citizen. Can we get a mortgage for purchasing an apartment in Poland for rental purposes?

The answer is yes. Whilst it can be a benefit for non-resident mortgage applicants to have Polish citizenship/passport, it is not the most important factor. What matters most is the applicants' financial position - size of salary, liabilities etc.
