    charming hotel
    tram noise

    The location is great, just a short

    Walk from both the main train station and the Old Town. While the tram noise sometimes interrupted my sleep, the cleanliness and charm of the hotel were good. The staff was very accommodating and helped with my luggage proactively.

    The ideal location of the hotel, the cleanliness, the generous and very varied breakfast, the quality of the menus offered by the restaurant and the kindness of the staff providing the service.

    The reception: polite but not very warm! The curtains let the light come in .

    easy strolls to main attractions and a cozy breakfast

    The hotel was a great place for a weekend getaway, with just a 10-minute walk to the charming rynek glowny central square, where I loved exploring the local atmosphere, and the breakfast was one of the highlights, with a lovely buffet that kept me energized for my city adventures.

    great location
    busy breakfast

    Perfect base for exploring Kraków 🇵🇱

    Room was spacious and clean, with a lekker view facing the rear-got a good night's rest, no trams keeping me up! Staff were friendly and really helped us out with local tips. The location? Just perfect for hitting up the old town in a jiff!

    But, ja, the breakfast was always busy and a bit of a schlep to get food, especially if you want hot options.

    Cost-effective for the price, super well placed, this hotel is quite suitable. Hotel 200m from the central square and the station.

    A slight lack of insulation between the rooms and the rest of the hotel.

    The decoration, the spacious rooms, its location in the city

    The heat in the rooms no air conditioning, the outside noise. The hotel is located on a very busy avenue. It is impossible to leave the windows open for freshness due to the noise. Request a room on the garden

    poor cleaning

    Friendly and helpful staff made our stay enjoyable.

    The noise from the tram outside was unbearable. I couldn't get a single good night's sleep . The cleaning in the bathroom was appalling. I found dried urine underneath the toilet, which went ignored for five nights.

    Hotel close to the main station and close to the historical centre. Helpful and welcoming staff.

    No air conditioning and impossible to open the windows because the room was on noisy avenue. Obsolete installation except SDB recently redone.

    The geographical location, close to the station (ideal for a direct arrival from the airport), very friendly and helpful staff.

    Sound insulation too light! An establishment with a style of the 60s and 70s in Poland.
