Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about Apollo Apartments on Masarska? It’s tucked into this quiet residential street in Grzegórzki that feels refreshingly removed from the tourist chaos, but you’re actually only about a 15-minute walk to the Old Town. I mean, you get the best of both worlds here – you can grab morning coffee at that little bakery on Dietla Street without fighting through crowds of tour groups, then wander over to the Main Square whenever you feel like it. The building itself has this understated elegance that’s very Krakow – not flashy, just solid and well-maintained in that Eastern European way where things are built to last.

What really sets this place apart (and honestly, this 9.6 rating makes total sense once you’re there) is how they’ve managed to create actual apartment living rather than that sterile hotel feel. The kitchens are properly equipped – I’m talking real coffee makers, not those tiny hotel room things, and enough counter space to actually spread out your groceries from the Galeria Kazimierz down the road. The apartments feel lived-in but fresh, if that makes sense, with these nice touches like local art on the walls and furniture that looks like someone actually chose it rather than ordered it from a hotel catalog. Parking can be a bit tricky in this neighborhood – street parking fills up pretty quickly, especially on weekends when locals are out and about – but the staff genuinely tries to help figure out solutions rather than just shrugging it off.

What I loved most was how the place connects you to real Krakow life. You’ll hear church bells from nearby parishes (not loud, just… present), smell fresh bread from morning bakeries, and actually see how locals live in this part of the city. The Grzegórzki district doesn’t get much attention in guidebooks, but it’s where you’ll find authentic pierogi at half the price of tourist spots, and there’s this wonderful community feel around Plac Centralny that you completely miss if you’re staying in the dead center of town. The staff – and this is where that high rating really shows – seem to actually know their neighborhood. They’ll point you toward the good stuff without that rehearsed tourism spiel, like mentioning which tram lines are running smoothly or where to find decent late-night food that isn’t just another kebab stand. It’s the kind of place where you end up staying an extra day just because leaving feels harder than it should.

Best hotels in Krakow range from charming boutique properties in the historic Market Square to elegant converted palaces with stunning views of Wawel Castle and the Vistula River.

Reviews

  • Exceptional – Maria from Bulgaria – August 4, 2025 (10/10)

    Such a lovely apartment, it has everything you need! It is very modern and cozy, the building is new and has everything nearby, even a shopping mall. It is super peaceful and quiet as the apartment is looking towards the back yard. Not far from the city center. We loved our stay and highly recommend this place!

  • Excellent value for money – Nicki from Australia – July 25, 2025 (9/10)

    A very clean, comfortable and well appointed apartment. There was a balcony overlooking a quiet garden. The facilities included a washing machine and coffee maker. The location was near a shopping centre and a short walk to the river. The Old Town was a level 20 minute walk. Public transport was easily accessible.

    What could be improved: The wifi was sketchy at times.

  • Excelent apartment. Good starting point to know Kraków – Luis from Portugal – May 10, 2025 (9/10)

    Great space and layout. Big kitchen and bed spaces.

    What could be improved: It could have a wall plug on each head side of the bed.
    A light switch near the bed would be nice and avoid going to bed with the help of the mobile flash light.

  • Beautiful apartment for good price – Siniša from Croatia – June 27, 2024 (10/10)

    Modern design,clean,location,facilities were great.
    Owners were wonferful cause they allowed me to have and early check in

    What could be improved: Before entering the apartment you need to open 2 doors via code.that is a bit annoying when you are frequently going out and in

  • Awesome stay – Anonymous from Turkey – June 7, 2025 (10/10)

    Very clean. Central though quite blocks

  • Wonderful – Zanella from Italy – August 9, 2025 (9/10)

    La pulizia era ottima, appartamento arredato al dettaglio, molto bello e moderno. Nella zona son presenti tutti i servizi necessari ed è collegata bene con varie attrazioni. Cortile interno assolutamente silenzioso e molto grazioso.
    Host molto disponibile, è venuto anche incontro ad alcuni nostri inconvenienti in maniera ottima e premurosa.

    What could be improved: Dotazione di letto e cuscini migliorabile, non è al pari del restante arredamento. Personalmente, i cuscini erano molto scomodi, ma è una questione soggettiva.

  • Wonderful – István from Germany – June 30, 2025 (9/10)

    Nagyon modern és mindennel felszerelt lakás.

    What could be improved: Kicsit körülményes volt az utcáról való megközelítése
