Definitely recommend this hotel to anyone staying in KrakowAshley from Germany (10/10)
Everything was fantastic! The location was a short walk to most major tourist sites, the staff were all very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was varied and delicious, and the beds and pillows were very comfortable. This was one of the largest hotel rooms and most comfortable beds we've had during our travels in Europe, and everything was very clean and modern. The breakfast buffet each morning had a great selection that varied slightly from day-to-day with a menu of items that could be ordered as well, such as eggs, omelettes, pancakes, and oatmeal. The bar offered a nice area to relax and the drinks we ordered were delicious. We would absolutely stay here again!
