PURO Kraków Kazimierz
Gorgeous hotel, so pretty & stylish. Breakfast was tasty & the free coffee/drinks in the reception was great. I would highly recommend this place, so close to the Jewish quarter and a quick walk to Wawel castle and old town.

Aparthotel Stare Miasto
The hotel is in an excellent location just a minutes walk from the main square. There are plenty of restaurants close by and in the square. We had a family apartment which was brilliant. Had two bedrooms and each bedroom had its own bathroom and kitchen area. Would recommend the accommodation.
