Hotel Atrium
Very good experience. Hotel was nice and clean, and a 5-10 minute walk from the centre of Krakow old town so very convenient. Breakfast was a bit basic and it would have been nice to have a wider variety.

Turnau City Aparthotel
Clean, well equipped, close to the main stations and the old town. However, the apartment could do with some tlc (wall cracks, peeling paint, blinds didn't work so I wasn't able to block out the light, leaking shower head with mildew, marks on shower tray). Good for 1 night.

PURO Krakow Stare Miasto
The hotel was beautiful but what really made the experience unforgettable was the cocktail masterclass given by Olivia! She was so knowledgeable and generous with her time! I learned a lot and had a brilliant time ! PURO hotels are amazing and I’d love to stay in the others they have!
