Kraków, a southern Poland city near the border of the Czech Republic, is known for its well-preserved medieval core and Jewish quarter. Its old town – ringed by Planty Park and remnants of the city’s medieval walls – is centered on the stately, expansive Rynek Glówny (market square). This plaza is the site of the Cloth Hall, a Renaissance-era trading outpost, and St. Mary’s Basilica, a 14th-century Gothic church

My husband and I visited Krakow for the Christmas market. We loved this hotel, so close to the market and easy walking distance to other sights of interest. Lovely, clean and extremely friendly and helpful.

The breakfasts were amazing and we ate far too much, but it was so tasty! The waitress in the breakfast room was wonderful and couldn’t have been more friendly. Special thanks to her.

Five day stay at the Santi Hotel for Christmas Market. Very convenient position close to market and within walking distance of many attractions.
Large double room on third floor, two arm chairs and settee in room. Extremely clean and well appointed. Bathroom immaculate. Still and fizzy water provided together with tea and coffee machines.

Staff very friendly and knowledgeable. Excellent command of English language.

Breakfast both cooked and continental provided. Would definitely stay at this hotel on next visit
Restaurants, bars and bistros good value for money and choice.

The location is perfect. Right opposite tram stops and a couple of minutes walk to main square. 5 mins walk in the opposite direction and you are at Wawel castle. Everything is walkable from this hotel.

The bar is lovely and relaxing. Would not hesitate to recommend you to stay here. One word of caution – as it is a historic building there is some noise to be heard from people talking in the walkways and some tram noise but not enough to disturb you unless you are an extremely poor sleeper. It didn’t bother us in the least. The main square was all lit up for Christmas and is stunning.

Restaurant recommendation.. piano rouge on the main square – eat inside downstairs there is live piano music from 9pm each night and the food was reasonable and lovely.

Choice of hotel was awesome. Seemed very authentic with many original features. High arched ceilings. Original frescos. What a jewel.

So handy for the main square with its many restaurants and cafe’s. The castle five minutes away.

Our room was spacious and comfortable. Added bonus of two armchairs to relax in after many hours of walking.

Excellent location. Walking distance to many restaurants and shops.

Room 23 looks over the Christmas markets in the Old Town Square. Great staff. Comfy beds. 20 minute cab ride from airport. Highly recommend this hotel.

The location is perfect on the square especially with the Christmas market open. Bedroom was lovely and comfortable and clean

Breakfast was relaxed and good quality in a lovely setting and dinner was very nice and well served in the canopy on the street….great place to stay.

Located on one side of the 10 Acre square in the centre of the Old Town, the position is perfect and we had a great view of the Christmas market from our window.

. The hotel is location right on the square. When you book make sure to get a room facing the town square as the view is spectacular. Each room is unique.
