Good location in Krakow so close to the Old Town and the Jewish Quarter, a conference or city sightseeing and a Krakow congress center. Besides, easy to get to a fortified hilltop castle.

Very central location, relatively near Main Square. Close to railway / bus station, the modern centre & railway/bus station, and the main architectural museums and places of Krakow in 5 minutes. Silent, reasonably large room with a private bathroom and a hairdryer, a shower cap, and bath sheets. Paid gbp 134.
