This unassumingly boutique Hotel on Sw Agnieszki in Kazimierz (two minutes from Wawel Castle), is an expression of the Polish Romance. It used to be an old schoolhouse, and if you look hard the signs are still there to see.

I must start with the breakfast room, with its walls full of tableaux, tasteful bric-a-bric, with the whiff of a bohemian salon has more character and imagination than a thousand chain or 'specialty' hotels. They lay the table with lace cloths specially for you - none of this pile 'em high buffet nonsense - and bring fresh juice and coffee and the meats and cheeses are delectable.
If there was a failing, it was that my single room was too cramped (perhaps the old detention chambers) and the noises of early breakfast begin to echo around the building around 7am. At €61-79 per night, a jewel worth a higher price.

Best beer pub in Krakov - CK Browar (6-7 Ulica Podwale). Best sport bar with good beer and friendly people - Non Iron.(Marka 27). Best cellar bar/restaurant - Piwiica Pod Ztolta Pipa (Florianska 30). We stayed at the excellent Polera Hotel (Szpitalana 30).

All these are in the centre near the main square and everything in walking distance.

The Hotel System where I stayed when visiting Krakow is a modern and friendly place to accommodate! And cheap. No need to talk too much just see it on www.hotelsystem.pl I have really enjoyed this stay and I will be back :-)

Located at the heart of the historic Old Town, Globtroter offers good value for money and a hospitable welcome to the city of Krakow. The hotel is located in a quiet courtyard off the Szczepanski square - minutes away from the Market Square.
