Central Apartments by Tyzenhauz Overview
You know what caught me off guard about Central Apartments by Tyzenhauz? The name makes it sound like some corporate chain, but it’s actually got this intimate, lived-in feeling that most hotels completely miss. I mean, sure, it’s officially a 3-star place, but honestly – and I’ve stayed in plenty of overpriced “luxury” spots – this place punches way above its weight class. That 9.0 rating isn’t just numbers on a screen; you feel it the moment you walk in.
The apartments themselves are what really sold me. Instead of that sterile hotel room vibe where everything’s bolted down and wrapped in plastic, these feel like actual homes. The kitchenettes aren’t just for show either – I actually cooked breakfast a couple mornings (there’s a little market just around the corner that locals use, which was perfect for grabbing fresh stuff). The beds are surprisingly comfortable, and here’s something you don’t usually think about until you’re trying to sleep: the windows actually block out street noise properly. I’m someone who usually travels with earplugs, but didn’t need them here.
What I really appreciate is how the staff treats you like a person, not a room number. Check-in was smooth – no weird upselling or lengthy spiels about amenities I’ll never use. They just got me settled and pointed out a few neighborhood spots that weren’t in any guidebook I’d seen. The whole Tyzenhauz connection gives the place this subtle historical character too, though they don’t beat you over the head with it. It’s more like… you notice little architectural details and design choices that feel deliberate, like someone actually cared about creating a space rather than just filling it with furniture. Parking was straightforward when I had a rental car one trip, and the few times I needed something from the front desk after hours, there was always someone around who could help. It’s that sweet spot where you get the independence of an apartment but the backup of hotel service when you need it. Perfect for longer stays, but honestly, even for just a weekend, it beats another cookie-cutter hotel room every time.
The concierge service in Krakow can arrange exclusive castle tours, secure classical concert tickets, and organize visits to nearby Wieliczka Salt Mine and Auschwitz Memorial.

Reviews of Central Apartments by Tyzenhauz
Adrian from Romania (9/10)
Excellent location – 10 minutes walk to the Central Market (Rynek). The apartment is very well equipped. We really appreciated that there's a separate room with 2 beds.
As we arrived by our own car, we appreciated that the parking in the neighborhood is not problematic, you can very easily find parking places on the street. I also appreciated that it is possible to pay the parking, at the street machines, by credit card, and the cost is reasonable – 50 Polish Zloty per day.Ragheed from Germany (9/10)
Everything was good, very clean, very good value for money and well located on a walking distance from the city center

The apartment was close to Old Town about a 10min walk away. The facilities were great. We were short of nothing. There were 4 adults and 2 children. I would recommend this place as it was terrific value for money!

В кімнатах було чисто, чиста білизна, чисті рушники. На кухні все було: посуд, кава, чай. Все як в описі. Персонал ввічливий.
Paulina from Poland (9/10)
Świetna lokalizacja, wszędzie blisko. W mieszkaniu wszelkie udogodnienia potrzebne na kilkudniowy pobyt. Polecam 🙂
Lidiya from Ukraine (9/10)
Все сподобалось. До гуртожитку, де проживає наш син-студент ~ 200 м, що було основним критерієм. Біля річки Вісли – близько; галерея Казимиш – теж; тиха вуличка, є пральна машинка, гарно обладнана кухня. 2-спвльне ліжко і розкладний диван. Все чудово!
Nataliya from Ukraine (9/10)
20 хв пішки до самого центру (Bazylika Mariacka). 5-7 хв до торгового центру (Galeria Kazimierz).
Чудова простора квартира.
