Apartament tuż przy Wawelu

Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed in plenty of Old Town apartments that promise “authentic Krakow charm,” but this place on Stradomska actually delivers. The moment you walk up to number 13 – and yes, it’s apartment 11, so don’t get confused like I did – you realize you’ve lucked into something special. You’re literally a two-minute stroll from Wawel Castle, which honestly sounds too good to be true until you’re actually doing it every morning for coffee.

What really gets me about this spot is how it feels like a proper local secret. Stradomska runs parallel to the main tourist drag, so you avoid those awful crowds stumbling back from the bars at 2 AM (trust me on this one), but you’re still close enough to everything that matters. The apartment itself has that perfect balance – renovated enough that the shower actually works and the wifi doesn’t make you want to scream, but it keeps those gorgeous high ceilings and original details that make you feel like you’re staying somewhere with real history. The kitchen is surprisingly well-equipped too, which matters more than you’d think when you want to grab fresh bread from the bakery around the corner instead of paying restaurant prices for every meal.

I mean, with a 9.4 rating, you’d expect it to be decent, but honestly? It overdelivers. The host clearly knows what travelers actually need – good lighting for getting ready, enough outlets that aren’t in weird places, proper blackout options for sleeping in. And the location… well, you know how some places say they’re “near everything” but then you’re huffing it uphill for fifteen minutes? Not here. Wawel Hill is right there, the Jewish Quarter is an easy walk across the river, and when you want to hit the main square for dinner, it’s barely five minutes through streets that are actually pleasant to walk. The building itself is quiet – I was worried about street noise, but Stradomska doesn’t get the party crowd that some of the other streets deal with. Only downside I’d mention is parking if you’re driving; Old Town parking is basically a nightmare everywhere, so factor that in. But if you’re doing Krakow right and walking everywhere anyway, this apartment puts you exactly where you want to be without making you pay those premium Main Square prices for the privilege.

Apartments in Krakow provide travelers with authentic local experiences, allowing them to explore traditional Polish markets and cook with regional Galician specialties.
