Rooms large, comfortable and very clean. Excellent location. Breakfast great. 'Black Duck' restaurant next door is very popular for a good reason, but may need to book. Excellent packed lunch if an early start for a trip and you miss breakfast.

The staff were very friendly and very accommodating. And there is someone at the front desk 24/7 which is very convenient. The room I stayed in was very cute, quaint and had everything I needed. Bathroom was clean, in good working condition with instant hot water and stocked with body wash and shampoo. The breakfast is included. There is a very good coffee machine in a common area, with fantastic espresso, free refillable water tanks and a sitting area. Very clean, quaint and comfortable hotel. Great location too. There’s even a nice restaurant at the hotel. I would definitely stay here again when I visit in a free months.

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.

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.
