Erich, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff fantastic, very helpful and friendly. We were in room 111 which was right beside the lift so it quite noisy at times. We were in a double room but it is actually two single beds side by side and two single quilts. The beds were also a bit lumpy. Overall a good stay but beds need updated.

10/10 Exceptional

Staying here was a great experience. The staff was very helpful and we were close to all the fun activities in the center. I definitely recommend this place.
Maria, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Highly recommended staying here when visiting Krakow. Located next to the castle and river, but not amongst the touristy and busy areas. Quiet, safe and just out of the way of the main old town. Skybar provides amazing views and you get a complimentary glass of prosseco that you claim and enjoy in the skybar - a nice touch. Hotel itself is welcoming, modern and clean. Rooms are spacious and airy with everything you need. Breakfast is included and is a brilliant buffet with a large variety of polish cold foods, patisserie, cereals, yogurts breads and a small selection of hot food. Only a small fruit selection, but salad is also available. Coffee and tea also provided. Really great place, especially for the price.

Adam, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our fourth stay at this hotel and it was excellent as always. Daily housekeeping, friendly and helpful staff (especially Bart on reception) and a really good choice at breakfast and on the evening menu. The hotel is ideally located for shopping and sightseeing and we will definitely be back next December.
