This is a stunning hotel in a perfect location. Travelled with my adult son and was surprised with huge room with two separate sleeping areas and - best of all! - two bathrooms. Lots of nice touches - welcome liqueur and biscuits, daily replenished water and coffee, complimentary bottle of wine. Loved this and would definitely return.

Loud Room Bring Ear Plugs

The hotel was in a fantastic area (right in old town) and the service was great. If you are traveling solo and book a single room buyer be ware that your room may be right next to the elevator...and when I say right next to the elevator I mean right next to!! It was very noisy! Don't do it. Also if you open your window and are staying in 201 smoke will waft in the courtyard. Bring your ear plugs!

A beautiful hotel 10 mins walk from Kazimierz to the south and the main square to the north, situated right next to Wavel Castle. The staff were excellent, courteous and approachable. Reception was always staffed and could answer any question we had or advice we needed. Take advantage of the MSHG card for a free gift, normally a drink, at restaurants within the consortium. Do make sure you get the card back at each place you visit, however. The price was a little bit on the steep side for the size of the rooms, but makes up for it with “the small things”…you will not be disappointed. You will be comfortable.

We had a great stay here! The staff were all very welcoming, very friendly and always happy to help with anything we needed! The hotel was just like the photos, such a nice feel to the place. We ate at the restaurant a few times and the food was just amazin! The service brilliant. We could not fault them!
