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.

TRIBE Krakow Old Town
Great service from staff who are extremely friendly and helpful. Very clean & cosy rooms as well. Only issue I found were the pillows were not the most comfy as they weren't the most supportive. Breakfast was average, mostly let down by the pastry options but for the price it's not too bad
