Totally central.........
Booked this through Easyjet; it couldn't be more central, just 30 seconds or so from Rynek Glowny, the Main Market Square. The hotel is actually two buildings; Reception and half the rooms are in one, the rest of the rooms (and the breakfast room) are in another a few yards away. I don't know if you can get from one to the other inside, as I never bothered to find out.
This hotel is part of a chain and has been recently refurbished, which means the showers etc are excellent. My room was at the front, overlooking Ulica Grodzka, one of the main streets and therefore rather noisy. In fact, ear plugs are absolutely vital for any room at the front; although not raucous, the general buzz carries on into the small hours (the horses and carriages stop around 11pm, I think), and cars and lorries are allowed in the evening and early morning. There's no air-con, so having the windows open in summer is essential. The walls are very thick, and the windows double-glazed, so I imagine it's quite cosy in winter.
The staff are young, friendly, helpful and speak excellent English. Breakfast is typical hotel buffet; rolls/toast/cereal/cheeses/jams/coffee/juice etc etc. There is a lift in the Reception building, although there wasn't one in my building (the Easyjet rooms, perhaps?). The hotel is very aware of security too; as both entrances lead through to restaurants on the ground floor, there are iron gates and double security doors which your room key opens.
Unique Quality: You really couldn't ask for a better position in central Krakow. I was very impressed by the staff and by the cleanliness of the room. A good mid-range hotel..
But you really will need ear-plugs, unless it's winter and freezing cold!
