Good city centre hotel

Very central hotel and easy to get to the main square. The room faced the train tracks but the trains were fairly quiet. The room had everything required.

I would recommend this hotel and i will stay there again. It is clean, the staff is very accommodating and the location is excellent. Four to five minute walk to the train station, the bus station, and a grocery store. It is a few minute walk to Planty park and the St. Florian gate to the old town. I would also note that the breakfast is great and plentiful.

Next to the train tracks so you hear the trains going by. As well as hearing neighbours talking, showering etc. Rooms - Very outdated, super small, with no storage space. Cruise ships have more space than those hotel rooms. Wouldn’t recommend it.

Unassuming frontage in a cul-de-sac, but very close to the Old Town & plenty of shops, cafes, restaurants. Comfortable room with air-conditioning, good sound-proof double-glazing despite the train line running right outside the window. Helpful staff recommended cafes etc & advice about tram train & bus services including airport transfer.

I stayed at Hotel Downtown Kraków during a recent trip and overall had a good stay, especially considering it’s a budget hotel. The room was clean and comfortable, though slightly smaller than expected. A wardrobe by the entrance makes the space feel tighter, but it wasn’t a major issue. The bed was comfortable, although the pillows could be a little fluffier. The room also had a kettle for tea/coffee and both radiators and air conditioning which helped keep it warm during the winter months. The only real issue in the room was that the TV didn’t appear to work. The bathroom was clean but the shower temperature was temperamental and difficult to set to a comfortable warm level. Staff interaction was limited but the staff I did encounter were friendly enough. The location is one of the hotel’s biggest strengths. It’s less than 10 minutes from Kraków Główny railway station and Galeria Krakowska, around 15–20 minutes to the Main Market Square, and about 30 minutes to Wawel Castle and the Jewish Quarter. The hotel is tucked away on a quiet street, although you can hear trains passing nearby. If small issues like the shower, TV and pillows were improved, this could easily be a very strong 4-star budget option in Kraków.
