The property was the perfect location for seeing all of the old town. A stone's throw from the Wawel Castle. The Sky lounge on the hotel's top floor gave a great view of both the castle and river. Both stunning day and night. Open to non residents as well so can be busy on a sunny day. The reception staff (Bartosz) was simply brilliant. From lending an umbrella to booking a taxi. Super friendly and helpful all round. A walking Oracle if you can get a word in😂😂

Nice Hotel in a lovely location

Pros: The location is great. There is a little mini mart next door. Hotel restaurant, either ground floor or roof top is very good. ate there twice
Cons: Rooms need a fridge. For some reason they are not standard in the hotel. That's where the mini mart comes in for cold drinks
Location: The hotel is next to Wawel castle & the river, nice. One of the main thoroughfare's, with shops & restaurants is a 4minute walk away.
Upgraded to a river view, glad we did. Hotel over looks the Vistula river & is in a very nice area of the city We like walking, so it was perfect for us as the Main Square & Jewish quarter are no more than an interesting 15minutes stroll away & flat..Felt no need to book a city tour bus as is the case in other Cities. A lovely City with lots going on. An extremely clean City, not a single piece of litter anywhere, cheap as chips also. Trip to Auschwitz is a must, very moving & thought provoking.

The location was great and room was tidy. The rooftop bar was great! Hotel exterior was not appealing, interior was small, but tidy. Breakfast was good one morning and average in the other. Good place for people who spends most of the time outside.
