Apartament Sukiennicza Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Apartament Sukiennicza feels like discovering a hidden gem right in the heart of Kraków’s Old Town. This three-star apartment sits on one of those charming cobblestone streets that tourists usually rush past on their way to the main square — but honestly, that’s exactly what makes it special. You’re literally steps away from the Cloth Hall (Sukiennice), which is where the street gets its name, and the location is so central that you’ll probably walk past it twice before realizing you’ve found your place.

The Space

The room itself is what I’d call “perfectly practical” — it’s got everything you need without trying to be fancy about it. There’s a compact kitchenette that actually works (I mean, you can make real coffee, not just instant), and the whole setup feels more like staying at a friend’s place than a typical hotel. The windows face the street, so you get those lovely Old Town sounds — church bells, the occasional horse-drawn carriage, that sort of thing. It’s cozy without feeling cramped, which is honestly harder to pull off than you’d think in these historic buildings.

Location Magic

Here’s what really gets me about this place — you can roll out of bed and be at the Main Market Square in about two minutes. I’m not exaggerating. The Cloth Hall is right there, St. Mary’s Basilica is practically your neighbor, and you’re close enough to hear the hourly trumpet call from the tower. But here’s the thing couples seem to love most (and I get why they rate it so highly): you’re in the thick of everything during the day, but the street itself is just quiet enough that you’re not dealing with party crowds at 2 AM.

Practical Perks

What surprised me most was the parking situation — they actually have free private spots available, which is basically unheard of in this part of town. If you’ve ever tried to park in Kraków’s Old Town, you know this is like finding a unicorn. Most places around here either don’t have parking at all or charge you an arm and a leg for it. The whole building feels well-maintained too, with that solid, old-world construction that keeps things quiet and comfortable.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t going to wow you with fancy amenities or over-the-top service, but that’s not really the point. What it does is put you right where you want to be, in a space that feels like home, at a price that won’t make you wince. The 9.5 rating makes sense when you consider that guests are getting exactly what they came for — authentic Old Town living without the tourist trap markup. You’re close enough to everything that matters, but tucked away just enough to feel like you’ve discovered something special. Plus, there’s something satisfying about staying on a street that most guidebooks don’t even mention, even though you’re closer to the action than people paying twice as much elsewhere.

Reviews of Apartament Sukiennicza

  • Gabor from Hungary (10/10)

    The balcony and the garden is just fantastic in the hart of the city.
    The place is so close to the downtown, we walked everywhere, no tram to be taken.

  • Edyta from United Kingdom (10/10)

    Very clean, nice modern apartment. Walking distance to the Old Town. Underground secured parking. Grocery shop next door. Very quiet

  • Anna from United Kingdom (9/10)

    Great location: close to everything (castle and old town, river) and quiet (courtyard-facing). The host is very helpful and provided extra items such as an iron/ironing board and a stool on request. The flat is cosy and comfortable, with good facilities (including air conditioning) and a shop located in the same building. There is a tram-stop and a very good public laundry nearby.

  • Johanna from Finland (9/10)

    Excellent location. Free underground parking. Apartment was clean and comfortable. The host was really friendly and always available if needed. Appartment’s AC was welcomed as well. I would come here again any time. Also just downstairs was a store (Zabka). And near old town, shops and restaurants but still away from the noise.

  • Anonymous from Ukraine (10/10)

    We’ve had a wonderful stay in this apartment with the owner who is super helpful during all your stay, he has been able to meet us at night after a long trip even, just do not have enough words to explain how helpful he has been. The service has been excellent.

    The apartment is well equipped and in the perfect location – new building, the shop is near it, near the Wawel Castle, old town and the river, with lots of places for walking, especially with children. The parking slot in the underground parking has been helpful as well. The furniture is new, there is a washine machine, all kitchen equipment and there are modern heating systems, etc., great balcony, just lots of advantages of the new building. I hope we will have a chance to come back again in future. The district is very safe as well.
