The view of the river & castle, the big, spacious suite they gave us was really great, we're so happy, appreciate it & love it. I wish they have refrigerator in the room, though.

An excellent hotel
Fabulous position opposite Wawel Castle on the river. A reasonably quiet spot at night. Easy walking distance to everywhere in Krakow. Very friendly and helpful staff. Very big room with 3 huge windows and a perfect view for a good price. Comfortable beds. Bathroom was large and shower worked well. Hotel transfers were very good and on par with the Internet price wise. I would stay here again.

The room was far too hot and humid. The air conditioner didn't work properly, and the cleaning staff opened the curtains when they left which let the sun in to hear the room up. On the day I arrived, the hotel was hosting some kind of loud dance party.

Good value
The breakfast was fantastic. The view of the castle is very nice. The hotel could use a renovation though. It has a good location as it is just across the river. It’s a good value.

The location of the hotel is absolutely super! It is located diretely at the river with a nice view onto the Wavel. The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast is very good and lots of choises.
The staff was very helpful and freindly.
The only issue we had was that the internet sometimes was extremely slow or did not work at all. That was a problem, as the TV set had only Polish stations.
Beside this small deficiency we would definetely return and recommend this hotel!

hotel poleski
Great views of the Wawel Castle for sure. My wife and I were pretty happy overall. One thing that definitely was problematic was air-conditioning. We happened to be in Krakow in the beginning of August and it was very hot. The AC in the room was working, but it was rather weak.
Otherwise, we felt the hotel was great. The staff was super friendly and very professional for Polish standards.

Superb views, hotel needs serious attention!!!
Hotel view was superb. Condition and state of hotel was very poor. Stained carpets, broken lights, broken air conditioning.
A real disappointment on what was my honeymoon.
Schöne Hotelaussicht auf Schloss Wawel und Fluss Weichsel.Frühstück nicht empfehlenswert Tomate Mozzarella vom Vortag schlechte Auswahl

Hotell med fantastisk utsikt
Trevlig hotell med fantastisk utsikt över floden Wisla och slottet (om man har rum med fönster som vetter åt det hållet). Hotellet är tyst och rent, rummet är tillräckligt stort. Hotellet har dessutom egen parkering, vilket är ett stort plus. Gångavstånd till det mesta i centrala Krakow.
