A little gem

Wonderful hotel, situated in the old town of Krakow. Walking distance to bars, shops, restaurants. Breakfast was tasty and the staff were very helpful. We booked a tour for early in the morning, and they made us a packed lunch to bring with us!! Delicious. Rooms are decorated to a very high standard. Molton Brown toiletries. Nespresso coffee maker. I would highly recommend staying here.
