Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers modern, spacious, and very clean rooms with air conditioning, providing a comfortable stay despite the relatively smaller size. The service was excellent overall, with a few minor exceptions. The location is fabulous, offering a picturesque view of the old square and easy access to various tourist spots. The dining experience was satisfactory, albeit with some limitations. The facilities are well-maintained and add to the overall experience.
My stay at the hotel was lovely, with clean and comfortable rooms overlooking the beautiful main square. The staff was very helpful and accommodating, although they seemed quite young to be running the restaurant effectively. The central location made it easy to explore all the historical sights, and the dining experience was top-notch, offering a variety of options.
The hotel offers a great location next to the main square but was noisy due to the nearby Christmas market. The staff was helpful and accommodating, but the rooms were affected by a loud generator, impacting our rest. Dining was satisfactory, with an extra charge for some items.
The hotel is tucked away in the corner of the main square, offering a fantastic location with great value for money. The rooms are airy and clean with well-appointed bathrooms, but they could get a bit warm as the buildings are old and lack AC. The service was brilliant and friendly, especially Bart who provided all necessary information. The dining experience offers a good choice of dishes with a typical Polish/continental menu. However, the coffee machine is a bit slow. Overall, a lovely stay with a great location and friendly service.
The hotel room I had was directly over the market square, which was definitely worth paying a little extra for. However, the room in the courtyard was in the back of the hotel with no nice view. The service was excellent, with staff going out of their way to be helpful, friendly, polite, and professional. The location could not be more central, right at the heart of Krakow. The dining experience was inadequate for vegetarians, offering very limited options except fruits, cornflakes, and toast. The facilities were good overall.
