Wonderful little hotel that's located in the perfect spot between the Old Town and Kazimierz. Wawel Castle is literally around the corner at the end of the block. The room was a little small, but it's what I would expect from a boutique hotel in a very old part of town in a European city. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Everywhere we wanted to go during out 4 days in Krakow was within a few minutes walk in either direction. We didn't have breakfast in the hotel, but we did have 1 dinner on our first night at the hotel's restaurant--wonderful and an incredible value coming from the US.

The location was great and the hotel was connected to an amazing restaurant. Heated floors in the bathroom were a nice touch, transportation to the airport was easy to organize, and I enjoyed the daily “fun facts/legend descriptions” left by the staff concerning the city and surrounding areas.

This was by far the best hotel I have ever stayed in. The staff were attentive and endlessly helpful. The design, magnificent. The restaurant, fabulous. Great breakfast, amazing dinner. The rooms are stunning, comfortable and equipped with everything you can possibly need. Even loofa pads in the bathroom. The only thing to be aware of is that you cannot drive up to the hotel. Google maps is no help. But there is a taxi stand just around the corner. the location is wonderful, walking distance to almost all of the wonders that Krakow has to offer.
