JM Apartment Old Town Krakow Overview

You know what surprised me most about JM Apartment Old Town Krakow? It’s actually tucked away enough that you feel like you’ve found something special, but you’re still right in the heart of everything that matters. I mean, when a 3-star place pulls a 9.2 rating, there’s usually a good reason – and honestly, after staying here, I get it.

The thing about Old Town Krakow is that everyone talks about being “close to the action,” but what they don’t tell you is that some of those places come with the sound of drunk tourists stumbling past your window at 3 AM. This place manages to thread that needle perfectly. You’re genuinely in the old town (like, proper cobblestones-and-medieval-buildings old town), but the apartment setup means you’re not dealing with hotel hallway noise or people slamming doors all night. The building itself has that solid, old European construction that actually keeps things quiet – something I definitely wasn’t expecting.

What really won me over was how the place just… works. The apartment feels like someone actually lives there, you know? Not in a “haven’t changed the sheets” way, but in a “this kitchen has everything you’d actually need” way. I ended up making coffee every morning instead of hunting down cafés, which – let’s be honest – saved me a fortune and gave me time to plan my days properly. The whole setup makes you feel less like a tourist checking items off a list and more like you’re just temporarily living in one of Europe’s most beautiful cities. There’s something to be said for having space to spread out your stuff, especially if you’re doing that thing where you buy way too many pierogi and need somewhere to store them (guilty as charged).

Plus, and this might sound weird, but the check-in process was refreshingly straightforward. No hovering desk clerk, no pressure to buy breakfast packages or city tours. Just clear instructions and everything worked exactly as promised. Sometimes the simplest things make the biggest difference when you’re jet-lagged and just want to drop your bags and explore. The neighborhood itself is perfect for that – you can literally walk outside and immediately start discovering those little side streets that make Krakow so addictive to wander around.

Exploring Krakow offers visitors an unforgettable journey through Poland’s medieval heart, from its magnificent Wawel Castle to its bustling Market Square and timeless cultural traditions.

Reviews of JM Apartment Old Town Krakow

  • Yuriy86 from Ukraine (10/10)

    Perfect location near the railway station.
    Very cosy and good equipped apartment.
    Detailed instruction for the chech-in was sent immediately after the booking.

  • Raffaele from Italy (10/10)

    I had a fantastic stay at this apartment! The location is perfect, just 5 minutes from the main train station and 10 minutes from the historic center of Krakow. The apartment was spotlessly clean and incredibly comfortable, with everything you could possibly need for a pleasant stay. It's an ideal choice for anyone visiting Krakow. The host was extremely helpful, always available to assist and provided clear instructions. I highly recommend this place!

  • Ignacio from Denmark (10/10)

    Super clean, good location, checked all boxes. Good value.

  • Ketty from Denmark (10/10)

    The location is perfect: the main train station is about 10 minutes by foot (I had a very large suitcase with me, so it will take shorter time to reach ìf you don't have any heavy luggage with you), and a huge shopping mall is 3 minutes away. Tram and bus stations are just across the street.
    The official check in time is 16:00, but I was allowed to check in as soon as I arrived.
    I received very clear and detailed instructions and just picked up the keys.
    The room was spacious and very clean.
    The bed was exceptionally comfortable.
    I loved the complementary shampoo: it had a lovely chocolate scent.
