A really lovely hotel for a 3 star. The room we stayed in was spacious, which was unexpected. I loved the fact they have a conservatory area where you can read quietly and grab a hot beverage from the machine whenever you feel like. Would happily stay here again if I was visiting Krakow again.

Great location hotel, right where you need to be but just enough out the way to be quiet. Rooms were clean and had everything you needed. They even give us a pack lunch when we said we wouldn’t make breakfast one day because of a trip.

Bathroom is clean and newly refurbished with a walk-in shower, which is a treat for a person like me. There were enough plugs that I could charge my various device devices that needed charging overnight a plus was the proximity of a very nice restaurant. I didn’t really interact with the staff Because I didn’t need to and found it to be a great stay. I would go back again.

We were absolutely blown away by this property. It was way above our expectations! It’s rated 3 stars but it felt like 5 stars. Clean and cozy rooms . The best location for exploring, dining, shopping. Breakfast is amazing. I would absolutely book this hotel again if I ever visit Krakow in the future

This is a great cost effective hotel if you care about location, safety, and a quiet escape at night. Hotel is dated but clean and has everything you need. Only drawback was that the beds were too firm (from someone who usually likes firm beds) imo.

A good hotel in the old town of Krakow. Easy walk for the main tourist area. There isn’t a kettle in the room, but there is a coffee/hot water machine in a lounge area. Breakfast was good, and the place where breakfast is held becomes a separate restaurant later in the day, and it does excellent food.
