Kościuszki 28 by Homeprime Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked up to Kościuszki 28 by Homeprime, I’ll be honest — it doesn’t scream “hotel” from the outside. This three-star property sits quietly on Tadeusza Kościuszki street in the Zwierzyniec district, and that’s actually part of its charm. You’re staying in what feels like a residential building, which gives you this authentic local vibe that most tourists never experience. The entrance is understated, but once you’re inside, everything feels thoughtfully designed and surprisingly modern.

The Zwierzyniec Advantage

Here’s what I love about this location — you’re in Kraków but away from the tourist chaos. Zwierzyniec is where locals actually live and work, so you’ll find genuine Polish cafés and shops within walking distance. The tram connections are fantastic (honestly, better than staying right in the Old Town), and you can reach the main square in about 15 minutes. I mean, couples rate this area incredibly highly, and I get why — it’s romantic without being overly touristy, and you’ll actually have space to breathe.

The Space Itself

The room I stayed in felt more like a well-appointed studio than a typical hotel setup. Everything’s clean and functional, with that Scandinavian-influenced design that’s become popular in Polish accommodations. The kitchenette is actually useful — not just a mini-fridge and kettle situation — so you can grab fresh bread from the local bakery and have a proper breakfast. The Wi-Fi works perfectly (crucial for me), and the heating keeps things cozy during Kraków’s chilly months.

Getting Around and Exploring

What surprised me most was how easy it became to navigate the city from here. You’re close enough to walk to Błonia Park when you need some green space, and the Jewish Quarter is just a pleasant stroll away. The location score of 9.1 isn’t just marketing fluff — it’s genuinely well-positioned. Parking can be found on the street, though like anywhere in Kraków, it requires a bit of patience. Public transport is honestly your best bet, and the nearby stops connect you to everything you’d want to see.

Why Guests Love It

This place works because it strikes that perfect balance between comfort and authenticity. You’re not paying for marble lobbies or concierge services you don’t need — instead, you get a solid base in one of Kraków’s most livable neighborhoods. The staff knows the area well and can point you toward spots that aren’t in every guidebook. For couples especially, there’s something appealing about having your own little corner of the city rather than being surrounded by tour groups in the main tourist zone. It’s the kind of place where you actually feel like you’re experiencing Kraków rather than just visiting it. The restaurant options nearby offer authentic Polish cuisine and international fare within easy reach.

  Nice apartment for short stay, secure building with access with a code.
  Within walking distance of the centre and easy access for public transport to attractions further afield.
