Hotel z wyjątkowym klimatem, historią i wnętrzami, do którego z przyjemnością wrócimy.
Pros:

Wyjątkowa atmosfera i piękne, historyczne wnętrza hotelu. Bardzo doceniliśmy również obsługę – szczególnie niezwykle miłego i pomocnego pracownika zajmującego się samochodem i bagażami. Dużym plusem była też ciekawa opowieść recepcjonisty o historii hotelu.

Cons:

Jedynym słabszym punktem było dla nas śniadanie – przy tej cenie spodziewaliśmy się nieco wyższej jakości. Oczywiście jest to kwestia indywidualnych oczekiwań.

A wonderful experience
Pros:

It was great. We left this hotel yesterday, but we already miss it. The location is perfect: near the castle, on a quiet street parallel to the main avenue. Therefore, we were right in the city centre but without the noise, and we were halfway between the Main Market Square and the lively quarter of Kazimierz. The staff, the room, the spa, the restaurant – all these elements are what made our sixth visit to Kraków so unique.
