Art Room Boutique Apartment Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Art Room Boutique Apartment on Zyblikiewicza Street, you get this immediate sense that you’ve found something a little different from the usual hotel experience. It’s a proper apartment-style stay tucked into a historic building in Krakow’s Old Town, and honestly, that combination alone sets the tone. The building has that classic Krakow character — thick walls, a quiet courtyard feel — and yet inside it’s been put together with a real eye for design. You notice the details straight away, and they stick with you.

Location & Neighborhood

I mean, the location here is genuinely hard to beat. You’re right in the heart of the Old Town — not “close to” it, actually in it — which means the Main Market Square is just a short walk away, and so are most of the places you’d actually want to spend your time. Couples especially seem to love it here, and it’s easy to see why — there’s something about strolling back through those cobbled streets after dinner that just works. The location score sits at 9.9, which, well, speaks for itself.

The Apartment

What makes this four-star property stand out is the apartment format — you get proper space, not just a room with a bed squeezed in. The interiors lean into the “art” part of the name, with thoughtful touches that make it feel curated rather than generic. It’s the kind of place where you actually want to spend time in, rather than just treating it as somewhere to sleep. There’s a homey quality to it that’s sort of rare when you’re traveling, and guests clearly appreciate that — the overall rating sits at an impressive 9.6.

The Stay Experience

Because it’s boutique and apartment-style, the experience feels more personal than a big hotel would. You’re not navigating a lobby full of strangers or waiting for an elevator with a luggage trolley — it’s quieter, more intimate, and that matters more than people expect. The setup suits couples particularly well (they rated it 9.8 for a two-person trip, which is pretty telling), but honestly it works for anyone who values a bit of calm and character over a standardized setup. It’s the kind of stay you find yourself recommending to people when they ask where to go in Krakow.

Why Guests Love It

At the end of the day, what Art Room Boutique Apartment gets right is the combination of where it is and what it feels like to be there. Krakow’s Old Town is one of those places that genuinely rewards slow exploration — the cafes, the architecture, the side streets — and having a base this well-placed makes all of that easier and more enjoyable. It doesn’t try to be everything to everyone, and that’s actually a strength. If you’re after something with personality, a real sense of place, and a location that puts you right where you want to be, this is a very solid choice.

Many travelers prefer to book apartments in Krakow through trusted local agencies that provide insider knowledge about the best neighborhoods for experiencing the city’s medieval charm and cultural heritage.

Reviews of Art Room Boutique Apartment

  • Jeden z najlepszych apartamentów w jakim byliśmy. – Tkocz from Poland – August 11, 2025 (10/10)

    Świetna lokalizacja, mniej niż 15 minut piechotą na Stare Miasto i na Kazimierz. Taras otoczony zielenią, wychodzący na zaciszną przestrzeń między budynkami. Wyposażenie w dobrym stanie, wszystko co potrzeba. Czystość bez zarzutu.

    What could be improved: Zbyt duża ilość wody wydostawała się spod prysznica na podłogę łazienki. Na plus: wyposażenie w dużą ilość ręczników pod stopy. Kanapa w salonie miała spękania nawierzchni.

  • Exceptional – Liam from United Kingdom – July 15, 2025 (10/10)

    The layout and high quality finish to thr flat.
    The roof terrace a real bonus

  • Beautiful quiet apartment with garden terrace a stones throw from the Old town – Brown from Canada – May 11, 2025 (10/10)

    Excellent location – Very close to the train station and the Old Town. Very walkable. Beautiful renovation and quiet, comfortable 2 bedroom apartment on the second floor. And the terrace! Such a complete oasis on the city. Great full kitchen. Excellent espresso machine with milk frother . Farmers market within 4 blocks. Convenience store a block away.

    What could be improved: Not much counter space. No salt/pepper/ oil. No shampoo/ conditioner. No drying rack. Extra 200 zl charge for a friend to stay over one night had to be paid in cash.

  • Stunning apartment, beautifully decorated and in a great location. – Mark from United Kingdom – February 28, 2025 (10/10)

  • Clean, comfortable, friendly and great location – Rebecca from United Kingdom – December 11, 2024 (10/10)

Perfect temperature in the room never had to bother changing anything. Easy access. Really impressed and would stay again. Friendly staff and very clean and comfortable

    What could be improved: You only get one pillow. Which is a little flat. I would of loved two it would have been perfect

  • Great location – Amanda from United States – December 2, 2024 (10/10)

    Amazing location. Huge internal space. Well equipped. Easy access

    What could be improved: Bed/pillows were low quality and uncomfortable

  • Great location, spotless and well equipped apartment – Katie from United Kingdom – April 23, 2024 (9/10)

    Lovely spotless apartment 10mins walk from town square and Jewish Quarter. Comfy beds, well equipped kitchen if you wanted to cook (we just made breakfast). UK Netflix, good WiFi signal. Really helpful hosts with key instructions. large terrace which would have been lovely to sit on if the weather had been better, but our hosts had no control over that 😉 Would definitely book again if we come to Krakow and would recommend it to friends. Only slight moan, the pillows could do with replacing as lumpy but would not put me off booking again. Hosts even let us leave our luggage in the apartment as we were on an evening flight and the apartment wasn’t reserved the next day. Oh and it’s just a 5 minute walk from krakow grzegorzki Station. WE WILL BE BACK !!!

    What could be improved: Nothing all was fab!

    Great WiFi
    Great shower/bathroom facilities
    We were lucky with the weather and got to sit out on the massive terrace for morning coffee
    Great location – 5 minutes from the main square.
    Electronic entry so no worry about loosing keys

    What could be improved: Nothing!!

  • Lovely visit – Emma from United Kingdom – October 25, 2022 (10/10)

    The location was perfect in the old town near Planty Park and walkable to sites of interest and public transport. The apartment was clean, comfortable and really pleasant to stay in. Towels provided and good free wifi was a bonus. The door code was provided the day before so there were no problems getting into the building or apartment. We were really happy with our stay and would book this property again.
