The staff not friendly, no eye contact. Room too hot. Bed topper covered in plastic so not comfortable. Help your self to the mini bar but was empty. Far out from centre but tram was close to hotel. Came back to hotel at 10pm & bar shut. Hotel dark as not all the lights were on. At least 20 mins on a tram from centre. Didn't check out Spa as left after 1 night & booked another hotel for next 3 nights. When booking out was not asked why we were leaving early.

Dated and drab. Breakfast was excellent. Didn’t get to try the facilities ie swimming pool or spa because we were moved to another hotel for our last night. Apparently they have done this before. Disrupted our break, new hotel knew nothing of our transfer and made us wait over an hour whilst they sorted it out. It was further out of the city, in fact double the taxi fare. However, was nearer the airport. I wouldn’t stay at the symposium again, and would look for somewhere nearer the city centre.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Very poor level of facilities
I chose this hotel as it looked comfortable, with good facilities (spa, pool, etc) to help me relax during my stay in Kraków, which was for business purposes. It is located inconveniently, very far from the old town centre in an area with no restaurants, but I was aware of this when I booked. I would urge any potential guest to consider the following before choosing this hotel: - The swimming pool is tiny, you can barely do more than sit in it - Pool and spa are unavailable in the morning, and the service was surly - The restaurant has a v limited menu and closes at 9pm - The bar closes at 10pm - Wifi only works on the ground floor, not in the rooms - No tea/coffee making facilities in the room - Antiquated cathode ray tube TV with few channels, none in English (I got by with Spanish) Sadly this was a very disappointing experience, the first time this has happened with Expedia.

The rooms need some improvement
It has four stars, but we did not expect it to be different than a three-star hotel considering the price. The look and feel of the hotel was good (although a little old) and the staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel had some serious flaws, though. The air-conditioning did not work. Even though it was March the room was constantly too hot so we had to have the window open during the night. One reason for us to book this hotel was the sound-proofed rooms, but that does not help with an open window and a large road outside. There were no tea-making facilities, which I think a hotel of this class should have. The executive do rooms have this. The breakfast could be improved by adding more varieties of fresh fruits. When we were there they had only apples and one day also clementines. The menu in the rooms was outdated so the dishes mentioned there did not always exist anymore. Also the prices and details about the massages in the spa were out of date. We booked a foot massage but it turned out to be both much shorter and much more expensive than it said in the papers in the room. The hotel is a bit outside of the city center. It is easy to get to town using trams. We used buses and trams to get to/from the airport (it took 60-80 mins) (I think the hotel offers a shuttle service also, but we did not use that). The area around the hotel felt safe and the large Tesco 5 min away was convenient.
