Pleasant hotel in the Casamierz district. About 20 min walk to the Old Town. Room comfy (with minbar and room safe) and staff pleasant and helpful. Breakfast very basic but cheap at 6GBP a head.

Flott hotell sentralt i Krakow
Fint hotell sentralt i det jødiske kvarteret i Krakow. Selv om det er et eldre hotell, var det godt vedlikeholdt, og veldig rent og fint.

Nie polecam,drogo ale brzydko
Hotel nie jest na poziomie hotelu 4 *. Brudna recepcja, balagan na pulpicie robia zle wrazenie przy wejsciu.W lazience niedorobki, w pokoju wiszace kable od telewizora, ktorego nie mozna wlaczyc. Wygodne lozko.
Okropna jadalnia z brzydkimi lodowkami, sniadanie podane niechlujnie, jedzenie niesmaczne, zeschniete pomidory z mozzarella, jajecznica zimna, masla brak - jest tylko margaryna.
Mila obsluga.Cena nieadekwatna do jakosci

Erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. Meubilair eetzaal aan vervanging toe. Ontbijt voor vier sterren restaurant is karig. Kiezen uit drie varianten, misschien door COVID.

Trevligt läge i de judiska kvarteren.
Hotell med vänlig personal. Frukosten var inte direkt överdådig men ingick i ett bra rumspris.
Personalen är hjälpsam och tillmötesgående.
Lugnt område trots det centrala läget. Trevligt restaurangtorg utanför.

ravintolapalvelu ei asiakasystävällistä. Vain yksi nuori pitkä miestarjoilija oli erittäin ystävällinen. Vanha mies tarjoilija erittäin töykeä. Vastaanotto palvelu erinomaista.
