Kazimierz, Apartament nad Wisłą Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Kazimierz, Apartament nad Wisłą on Skawińska Street, you immediately sense you’ve found something special. This three-star apartment sits right in the heart of Kraków’s Old Town, and honestly — the location alone makes it worth considering. I mean, you’re literally steps away from everything that makes this city magical, yet tucked away enough that you won’t be dealing with constant tourist crowds right outside your window.

The Space

The apartment itself feels like a proper home base rather than just another hotel room. You know what struck me most? The way they’ve managed to blend modern comfort with that authentic Polish character you’re hoping to experience. The kitchen is actually functional — not one of those tiny hotel kitchenettes where you can barely make coffee. There’s real counter space, proper appliances, and everything you need if you want to grab some fresh bread from the local market and have breakfast overlooking the Vistula River.

Location Magic

Here’s the thing about staying in Kazimierz — you’re in the absolute sweet spot of Kraków. The Jewish Quarter is right there with its incredible synagogues and that buzzing nightlife scene, but you can also walk to the Main Market Square in about ten minutes. I’ve stayed in other parts of the city, and trust me, this location beats them all. The property scored 9.5 for location, and after spending time here, I get why. You’ll find yourself just wandering the cobblestone streets because everything feels so accessible.

The Vistula Views

The “nad Wisłą” part of the name isn’t just for show — you really are positioned beautifully near the river. From certain spots in the apartment, you catch glimpses of the water, and the whole area has this peaceful vibe that’s hard to find in busy city centers. Mornings are particularly lovely when you can step outside and take a short walk along the riverbank before the day gets going. It’s one of those details that makes the experience feel more authentic, less touristy.

Why Guests Love It

That 9.4 rating makes perfect sense once you’ve spent a night or two here. Couples especially seem to fall for this place — and I can see why. There’s something romantic about having your own little Polish apartment in such a historic neighborhood. You get the independence of self-catering when you want it, but you’re also surrounded by fantastic restaurants and cafés when you don’t feel like cooking. The whole setup just works, whether you’re planning romantic evening strolls through Kazimierz or using it as a base for day trips around the region. It’s that rare find where the location, comfort, and authentic local feel all come together without breaking the bank.

    Красивая, стильная квартира рядом со старым городом. Есть все необходимое для проживания. Хозяева отзывчивые. Отвечают очень быстро.
    Рядом есть парковка, но она платная.
    Можно оставить машину недалеко, но на свое усмотрение. Мы поставили на 10 дней. Все было хорошо.
    Идеальный вариант для отдыха.

  • Wieland from Austria (10/10)

    Sehr nettes Appartement in schöner Lage in Kazimierz, mit parkseitigem Balkon, direkt an der Weichsel, die Altstadt fußläufig erreichbar.
    Die Gastgeberin hat uns am Vortag alle wichtigen Infos geschickt und war auch für Rückfragen immer sofort erreichbar.
    Nicht ganz billig, aber Krakau ist zuletzt im Allgemeinen sehr teuer geworden.
    Haben uns wirklich sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen gerne wieder!

  • Anonymous from Poland (10/10)

    Bardzo przestronny apartament. Swobodnie można się poczuć nawet w kilka osób. Komfortowo i z klimatem. Bardzo dobra lokalizacja. Tramwaj niedaleko. Dużo dobrego jedzenia w okolicy.
