I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were very cozy and comfortable, well-equipped with a coffee machine offering oat, rice, and soya milk. The clean and stylish rooms had a big LCD screen with share screen function. However, being across the road from the train line made it a bit challenging to sleep with the window open. The iPad provided in the room was a convenient touch.

I had the most amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were just perfect – spacious, beautifully designed, and with floor-length windows that brought in lots of light. It was genuinely the best room I've ever stayed in. The location was spectacular, allowing for a lovely walk into the center of Krakow or an easy tram ride. However, being opposite train tracks made it feel a bit sketchy at night, though being close to the Jewish Quarter was a plus. The dining experience was consistently delicious each morning.

I had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The rooms were modern, fresh, and had a beautiful bathroom with high-tech items. Despite the initial confusion with the 'lighting schemes' feature, I would definitely come back whenever I'm in Krakow. The service was exceptional, and the location couldn't have been better. However, the dining options were a bit basic, and the hotel's position near the rail tracks was a downside.
