The whole stay here was great from the moment we walked in until we walked out. Great friendly, helpful staff. Only a short walk from the Old Town main Square. I requested birthday balloons for our arrival and they were waiting in our room when we arrived. Brilliant service. If we return to Krakow ...

PURO Kraków Kazimierz
Wonderful staff, clean, comfortable and large room. It was cool to have umbrellas and yoga matt available to borrow. As a solo traveller, I felt safe in this super friendly hotel that is close to everything but not in the middle of the tourist craziness.

Radisson Blu Hotel, Krakow
Nice place with great service, spacious rooms and great location. I enjoyed my stay here more than loft apartments in center square which are typically small, no breakfast, and very loud during the night.
