Cracow nest – 2 separate rooms, heart of Kazimierz Overview
You know what’s funny about Kazimierz? Everyone talks about how hip and artsy it’s become, but when you actually stay right in the thick of it like at Cracow Nest, you realize it’s got this perfect balance of authentic Polish neighborhood vibes mixed with just enough tourist energy to keep things interesting. This place gives you two separate rooms, which honestly sounds simple but is actually genius – I mean, you can spread out properly, maybe use one as a living area and the other for sleeping, or if you’re traveling with friends, everyone gets their space without awkward couch negotiations.
The thing about being in the heart of Kazimierz is that you’re literally walking distance from places like Plac Nowy (that’s the main square with the round building that serves killer zapiekanka at night), and you can stumble back from the jazz bars on Szeroka Street without worrying about trams or taxis. The neighborhood has this lived-in quality during the day – you’ll hear Polish grandmothers chatting from their windows, smell fresh bread from the local bakeries, see kids playing in the courtyards. But then evening hits and the whole area transforms into this buzzing cultural scene. The walls are pretty thick in these old buildings, so even when the bars get lively, you’re not kept up all night – though honestly, you might want to stay up anyway because the nightlife here is something else.
What really got me about this spot is how it nails that sweet spot between being a proper local experience and having everything sorted for travelers. The 9.3 rating isn’t just numbers on a screen – you can feel it in the details, like how everything actually works (shocking, I know), the shower has decent pressure, and someone clearly thought about lighting because you’re not squinting to read at night or putting on makeup in a cave. Plus, being right in Kazimierz means you’re maybe a 15-minute walk to the main square if you want the full Krakow postcard experience, but you get to come home to a neighborhood where real people live and where the pierogi joints are family recipes, not tourist traps. It’s the kind of place where you actually feel like you’re experiencing Krakow rather than just checking it off a list.
Hotels in Krakow offer visitors the opportunity to stay in the heart of this medieval masterpiece, with easy access to castles, churches, and traditional Polish experiences.

Hanna from United Kingdom (10/10)
Great location, very quiet apartment, very warm in October, contactless communication with the owner, there were household items tea, sugar, soap, toilet paper. Photos marching reality. The owner wrote instructions so that we do not slam the door with the keys inside and somehow we did it. He had to come and open the door for us without any reproaches. Thank him very much for this!
Yulia from Israel (9/10)
The apartment is in the perfect place, very close to all the main attractions, the tram is very near, but not too close (it makes noise). Many good restaurants in the area. Very good baby cot 🙂
Natalie from United Kingdom (10/10)
The property was very well equipped and comfortable. Four adults stayed and there was plenty of room and storage space for us all. The sofa bed was comfortable and very easy to set up and stow away. The bedding could be stored inside it, so it took seconds to convert from a bed to a sofa for the day. There was a double wardrobe in the living room as well as the bedroom and drawer space in both rooms. The apartment was always warm. Everything we needed was supplied, from dishwasher tablets and washing up liquid to toilet rolls and hand wash. We took our own toiletries and detergent sheets for the washing machine. We each had a large and small towel provided for each of us and there was a hand towel in the bathroom. The kitchen was very well equipped, although we only really cooked eggs and toast twice for breakfast and prepared packed lunches for our trips. There are many and varied places to eat in Krakow and nowhere was too far for us to walk. The apartment is ideally situated. We walked to Rynek Glowny passing Wawel Castle on the way. We were very close to the river so strolled along there. We walked to the Schindler Enamel Factory. Plac Nowy is very close and a favourite of ours for drinks and night snacks. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone.
Немања from Serbia (10/10)
Everything was great, the communication with owners was easy and the apartment has all the amenities you could need. It was super clean, too. The location is the biggest plus. as it's a great neighborhood with lots of grocery stores and restaurants, just 15 minutes by foot from the center.
Eszter from Hungary (10/10)
Cleanliness & closeness to the best places!
Laura from New Zealand (8/10)
Place is as described – very tidy, well equipped, and comfortable. Glad to have plenty of opening windows to ensure air flow on hot nights.
The location is amazing, in such a vibrant and relaxed area away from the tourist hot spots and bustle of Old Town.
