Mały Kraków Aparthotel Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to Mały Kraków Aparthotel on Kurniki Street, you immediately get that “I’m in the real Kraków” feeling. This three-star property sits right in Old Town — and I mean actually in it, not on some sketchy periphery like some places claim. The building has that classic Polish charm without being overly touristy, which honestly surprised me given how central it is. You know what struck me first? How quiet the street feels despite being steps from all the main attractions.
Location That Actually Delivers
Here’s the thing about Mały Kraków Aparthotel’s location — couples rate it 9.5 out of 10, and after spending time there, I totally get why. You’re literally in the heart of everything, but tucked away enough that you’re not dealing with constant street noise. The Main Market Square is maybe a three-minute walk, Wawel Castle is close enough for an easy morning stroll, and there are these little side streets with authentic Polish restaurants that most tourists never find. Having private parking on-site is actually a big deal here — anyone who’s tried to park in Kraków’s Old Town knows what I’m talking about.
The Aparthotel Experience
What I really appreciated about this place is how it balances hotel services with apartment-style independence. The rooms feel more like small apartments than typical hotel boxes, which makes sense given the name. You get that extra space to spread out, maybe prepare a simple meal if you want, but you’re not stuck doing everything yourself. The staff knows the neighborhood inside and out — they pointed me toward this incredible pierogi place that wasn’t in any guidebook I’d seen.
Breakfast Worth Mentioning
The breakfast setup here actually impressed me more than I expected from a three-star place. They’ve got continental options, but also vegetarian and vegan choices, which isn’t always a given in Poland. What’s clever is their breakfast-to-go option — perfect for those days when you want to grab something and head straight out to explore. I mean, when you’re this close to everything, you don’t want to waste morning hours sitting in a dining room.
Why Guests Love It
Look, Mały Kraków Aparthotel isn’t trying to be something it’s not — it’s a solid, well-located place that gets the basics right. The 7.8 rating reflects exactly what you’d expect: good value, great location, and that aparthotel flexibility that some travelers really appreciate. Couples especially seem to love it here, probably because you get that romantic Old Town atmosphere without the tourist trap pricing of some fancier places. If you want to be in the thick of historic Kraków but still have a peaceful place to return to, this spot delivers on that promise.
To book a hotel in Krakow during the summer festival season, visitors plan ahead to balance Wawel Castle mornings with dinners in vaulted cellar restaurants.

Reviews of Mały Kraków Aparthotel
Тетяна from Ukraine (8/10)
They had some renovations there, so we were provided another property just across the street –
a large two story apartment in a historic building. Who would not like that?Dave from United Kingdom (9/10)
location was excellent, Staff were not located in the building but in the building over the road but was not an issue.
Rooms were good, what we expected, we would stay again.John from United Kingdom (9/10)
triple room was big enough and the shower was great, sink and small hob in the room
Sergii from Ukraine (8/10)
The location of the apartment is lovely. The apartments are situated near the railway station a 5-minute walk. The room is small but comfortable and clean.
Olga from Ukraine (8/10)
Clean room, featured with kitchen staff and necessary for your rest tools. Perfect location for exhausted travellers with baggage (as it's a ground-level building). The team is helpful and friendly.
Paweł from Ireland (9/10)
The place was beyond our expectations. Especially the location, cleanliness and kitchenette inside the room was great.
Oleksii from Ukraine (9/10)
My expectations were met.
Elzbieta from United Kingdom (7/10)
Location very close to the railway station – very convenient. The room was small and basic but had everything needed. The room was bit out-dated but clean. It is quiet despite the very central location. Good place to stay for 1-2 nights.
