This is just a charming, upscale, boutique hotel with some of the friendliest staff we’ve encountered anywhere. So close to the castle and the town Square and so many restaurant options, including a Michelin listed restaurant within the hotel itself.

Location 10/10 Housekeeping is available. There is a tiny washer but no dryer but it didn’t really affect our time there. We unfortunately booked a room without elevator access so we hiked up to the third floor each evening but again only mentioned it for those with mobility issues. Amazing restaurant right across from the hotel and it is a must. Higher end but well priced and food is amazing. Would 100% stay here again!!!!

Perfectly situated next to the Castle/near the Vistula River and equidistant between the main square (market place) and the ICE convention center. Lots of churches, shops, restaurants on the walk through old town to the main square. Fiorentina restaurant at this hotel is excellent as well.

This is a stunning hotel and probably the nicest hotel I've ever stayed in. The decor is amazing, everywhere is spotless, the staff are friendly and couldn't be more helpful. There is something about the smaller hotels which for me gives them the edge on larger establishments. I can't wait to go back again.

The property is situated 5 minute walk from the main square and even closer to Wawel Castle, So very well positioned. The room we stayed was 108 which is well positioned and overlooks the courtyard. Bathroom is well appointed, good shower and nice Molton Brown soaps, shampoo and bathgel and cream. The staff were always helpful when we spoke with them.
