Central Krak Apartments Overview
You know what struck me first about Central Krak Apartments? It’s one of those places that doesn’t try too hard to impress you upfront, but then quietly delivers on everything that actually matters. I mean, with a name like that, you’re expecting something pretty straightforward in the heart of Krakow – and honestly, that’s exactly what you get, just executed really well. The building itself has that solid, no-nonsense Eastern European apartment block vibe, but the moment you step inside, you realize someone’s put real thought into making this work for travelers. The lobby’s clean and bright, check-in was refreshingly quick (none of that endless form-filling you get at bigger hotels), and the staff actually seemed to know the neighborhood when I asked about grabbing dinner nearby.
The apartments themselves are where this place really shines though. Mine had this lived-in comfort that you just don’t find in cookie-cutter hotel rooms – proper kitchen with a full-size fridge, a couch you’d actually want to collapse on after a day of sightseeing, and windows that opened wide enough to let in some fresh air. The Wi-Fi was solid (always my first test), and the shower had decent pressure, which honestly puts it ahead of half the places I’ve stayed in Central Europe. What I really appreciated was how quiet it stayed at night – you’re right in the city center but the building’s positioned so you’re not getting hit with street noise until morning. The only minor thing is that the elevator’s a bit temperamental, but hey, a few flights of stairs never killed anyone, and it keeps you honest after all those pierogi.
Here’s the thing about staying at Central Krak Apartments – you get that 8.9 rating because it nails the basics perfectly rather than trying to wow you with fancy extras you probably won’t use anyway. You’re literally minutes from all the main sights on foot, but tucked away enough that you feel like you’re staying somewhere locals might actually live. I found myself using that kitchen more than I expected, picking up fresh bread from the bakery around the corner and having coffee on the little balcony before heading out each morning. It’s the kind of place where you can actually settle in for a few days rather than just crash between tourist activities. For the price point and that location – well, let’s just say I’ve already bookmarked it for my next Krakow trip, and I’m pretty picky about where I’ll stay twice.
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.

I would recommend 100%Aleksandra from United Kingdom (9/10)
We had a great stay at the property. The apartment was very clean and super quiet despite being not far from the road. Honestly we were shocked at how lovely and quiet the place was. The property had everything we needed for our stay from great water pressure, cutlery, coffee machine to comfy bed and lounge area. The property was also in close proximity to the old town and just around the corner from shops and restaurants. The check in and check out were very straightforward and the host was helpful and responsive. We will definitely come back in the future.

Michael from United Kingdom (8/10)
The place is very central so a short walk to everything, the square and the castle etc. the apartment was very clean and as a base perfect for us, we literally just slept there. Anna, the owner was very helpful with an early check in and with keeping our bags for the later flight, post check out. Great value for money and would definitely stay again.

Apartment was very clean, hosts were really helpful. They also assisted us in keeping our luggage upon departure due to a late flight. Location was perfect since it was near old town.
