The hotel is amazing but the breakfast restaurant staff is so inattentive and rude. You literally have to go and find people to place order, keep finding them if you need anything but they are quick to appear to teach you that you can’t get your own hot coffee. God forbid you want to send your dish back… 5 stats hotel should also include 5 star service.

Beautiful hotel, amazing locaton

What a beautiful hotel. We stayed on the 5th floor. Location is right off the main square. Pool was wonderful after a day sightseeing. Only down side was WiFi was very poor in the part of the hotel we were in. Not sure if it’s better elsewhere in the newer bit of the. Hotel.

Amazing place, facilities and location are excellent, food is good also. The only issue we had was noise, the bells of the church going every hour and then a bit of music afterwards and also just noise from inside the hotel could hear people talking loudly early in the morning.

Best hotel in Krakow

Excellent - Best hotel we've been to. The pool is supper cool and spa facilities were great. The only thing that could make it better would be a slightly firmer bed and pillows.

The room was quite large and clean- with a king sized bed. Cleaning service was impeccable and the air conditioning kept the room a nice temperature. Rooftop bar offered great small bites and a perfect view of the main square. The pool was gorgeous and the salt room was a great amenity.

Nice hotel in old town

Nice hotel in old town. The hotel staff is very helpful and does everything that we asked for. But for a five stars hotel there are small things that are annoying, like the lack of a coffee machine or a kettle for making tea.

It shines in almost every aspect with huge spaces and very clean but there's nowhere to hang a hand towel close to sink or shower and other design flaws like having to stand from bed to turn the overhead lamp off... Or maybe it was me?... Location is excellent close to everything in a very quiet side street...

Great location and large room. Bed firm. Breakfast good, but a bit chaotic when the supervisors off . Staff need a touch more training. Corporate functions on most days. Good view from the roof top bar, but it lacks atmosphere. A few more plants would help. It’s all too bland, stark and grey. We didn’t use the pool and spa. Breakfast box in place of one breakfast was excellent. Reception staff good. Room well cleaned. Shower extremely slippery and bathroom too dark. Little atmosphere in the ground floor bar, but then many hotels struggle to get people in to their bars. Overall a good hotel, but lacks polish. Aimed more at the corporate market.
